Sand Lot Football
Despite second half offensive woes and an defensive gameplan that allowed Detroit to go to the underneath options all game long (but not score much), the Vikings are now a legitimate playoff contender. They need to win 3 of their 4 final games to get at least a Wild Card (I believe), and are showing a lot of creativity.
From This article, we hear about how two big pass plays were set up.
""We call it, 'Dart right, all go,' or 'Louisiana -- by you,' " Johnson said of the play. "The limit is usually 40 yards. [Backup quarterbacks] Shaun Hill and J.T. O'Sullivan were standing down on [the Detroit] 40. I said to Koren, 'Look at those guys; go 5 yards past them.' ""
and
"In the huddle, Johnson told Robinson: " 'There's a cameraman in a red hat. Run to him.' It was sort of like Thanksgiving football ... run to this spot. Koren made a tremendous play and was there.""
My family and the Bakers, who lived near us Indiana, used to play inter-family (mixed squads) Thanksgiving football. I miss it.
