Will we stay with the no huddle from here on out?

    Yesterday we came out swinging and it's something a lot of us have wanted to see for a while. We've seen flashes of the no huddle but then it would go away again. Do you think after yesterday we might stick with it going forward? I hope so. I honestly think if we don't come out in it next week I might just blow a gasket.

    I'd like to see them continue to use it.

    If Haley has any aspirations of keeping his job they better :lolol:

    Many of us have wanted this, going back to BA's days here.

    It should be a staple for this offense from here on out.

    I hope that the ST's can get some pressure on their punter also. Yesterday the Benglas had 2 blocked punts and came close a couple of other times. Clevelands punter seems to have a very slow delivery.

    I didn't watch the game yesterday, but we did go a long stretch without being very effective, with no TD in the 2nd and 3rd quarter. Was it really effective after maybe surprising the Lions to start the game with it, before they adjusted.

    Probably, but this offence (along with our defence and special teams) is chaotic. One quarter we look great, the next we can't buy a 1st down. We have to find a way to be more consistent.

    I just wish we snap the ball before 3 seconds left on the play clock. We are up at the line with 20 seconds left and we wait until 3 seconds to snap the ball.:facepalm:

    Boy I hope so. They say if it ain't broke don't fix it. Well it certainly was broken before and the no huddle seems to have fixed it. Watching the Broncos game last night, Manning only huddles on the first play of each offensive series.

    The Oline is in a 2 point stance typically while Ben is reading things.

    Not my choice by any means, but we will likely see the no huddle alternated with the wildcat every other week; this keeps the opposing teams off-balance. LMAO
    This coming week the wildcat will be back ... but SHHHH don't tell any Brown fans that you know. :lolol:
