Creative ideas to win a playoff game (for fun only)

To lighten up the mood around here, how about a group think tank to get us some wins in the playoffs. How can we get creative to surprise the Chiefs and sneak out with a win?

 

Example:

 

Since we have the division wrapped up, we can lose the next 3 games with no penalty. So, for the next 3 weeks we install the Wildcat, but don't employ it as our offense until the 1st round of the playoffs. Chiefs get blindsided and we walk out with a win. 

 

Obviously, never gonna happen, but lets get creative to take our minds off the disastrous play the last 5 weeks. 

 

Personally, I would go to a modified spread and have all of the plays called at the line (no huddle). We can't run the ball anyway, so may as well spread the field and let Luck go to work. It would open up the run. With Luck's wheels, he would be effective by taking off. Chiefs wouldn't know what hit them......unfortunately, they are probably the worst team to have the beta test against. Colleges have utilized the spread to hide talent deficiencies and compete with larger schools for years. Obviously, the NFL knows how to defend this. It is said that it takes the NFL 3 weeks to figure out how to defend a new offense.......that is all we need to march through the playoffs.

 

Again folks, this is for fun........I know this is never going to happen.

11 Offensive linemen. The center snaps it to one of the 10 people behind them, as a gaggle they run down the field bowling over the defense for the touchdown. Repeat. 

11 Defensive backs. All push down the receivers, hold up the quarterback, take the ball and run into the end zone. Repeat.

unless we get Jedf Tripplette to call the game the last one is probably a flag.

More circus plays like the one that the Steelers had at the end of their game, just lateral all the time. Heck put Adongo in on offense, he has experience with that type of play...it would tire out defenses and we score!

Circus plays! That's what we need.

 

5 Elephants can be our offensive line to establish the power run game.  The Alabama mascot is an elephant so maybe Trent will feel more at home and get up to 3.1 YPC.  If you go to the game probably best to avoid seats too close to the action.

 

Couple of Cheetahs on D to rush the passer, maybe a giraffe in the middle to swat down any passes.  Could get a little messy if the Cheetahs bypass Alex Smith and go after Blue instead.

 

And in case we somehow get past the Chiefs and go on the road into snow, some Polar Bears would also be useful.  Showing up in Foxboro to hear the commentators saying "well these Colts just aren't built to play hard nosed football outside in January, except for that linebacker they brought in from the Arctic last week, he looks kinda at home"

 

Have to be careful they don't go overboard though.  Pep would insist on calling it the "No Circus" system and Grigson might trade the next 5 drafts to move up and select Clowney since "it just sounds right".  Our new "players" could all stay at Irsay's place to ensure his twitter would be even more interesting.
