You know what WOULD have been cool? Take the most expendable freshmen OL, RBs, WRs/TEs, and Belin during that bye week and begin having them learn how to run an Army/Navy type offense for a few weeks... and then throw that at Belichick this weekend. What are the odds that he has ever had to scheme against something like that as an NFL coach? Plus, a short week to prepare for it this week too. You could start with our normal offense and go to that just to shake things up. Or.. .you could start with that... and then if/when they adjust to that... then we come back with our normal offense. Given that Army/Navy move the football with undersized offensive linemen... it would be a good opportunity to get some of our younger, smaller OL some game time experience without burning red shirts, etc. If we could bring in Dr. Blitz, why not Dr. Wing T/Option?
I get that this would take away from the scout team duties though. I am not sure we have the depth to do this in addition to the scout team. But it would sure have been interesting to see our 4th team befuddle Belichick for some or all of the game. This is why I am not a coach obviously...
