He does call that along with a slew of other commands, some designed as real signals others designed as dummy calls.What is Peyton Manning saying when he's calling signals at the line of scrimmage. What I thought I've heard several times is "Hurry up, hurry up ...." Is that correct or is my hearing going the same route as my sight?
That makes sense..He says "Auburn" when he calls a dummy play..He does call that along with a slew of other commands, some designed as real signals others designed as dummy calls.
Now that's bloody funny!:smile: on TideFans.com"Manti Manti" means they're going to run an imaginary play they learned from their on-line playbook
Well, Alabama is #1.It's also tied into the snap count. Alabama, from what one analyst said, means a count of one.
It's easier to assume the line of reasoning is A = 1 in terms of the alphabet so it makes sense to have a word starting with the letter A as the signal.Well, Alabama is #1.
If you want to see what’s next on the pro level, look to the colleges. That’s what Belichick does, with his alliances with coaches such as Nick Saban (LSU and Alabama), Urban Meyer (Florida and Ohio State) and, now, Kelly.
That’s why when Kelly walked into Gillette Stadium two years ago — and he’s been there three times total — ears perked up among the Patriots’ coaches, including Belichick.
Kelly told the Patriots he was moving to a no-huddle that only used one word to signify everything involved in a play.
Sideline calls take too long. Wristbands too.
One word is all that is needed.
Kelly declined to be interviewed, but those with knowledge of the discussion said Kelly laid out his rationale.
Players memorize thousands of words in songs, hundreds of movie lines, and many other things involving pop culture.
Why can’t players have instant recall of a handful of concepts? Heck, everybody knows No. 2 on a McDonald’s menu gets you a Quarter Pounder, medium fries, and a drink.
And the Patriots have to change their words because it doesn’t take long for other teams, especially those within the division, to catch on.
“We’ve changed them three times,” Brady said. “[The coaches said], ‘Well, we’re not going to use that, we’re going to use this particular word.’ And I’m like, ‘Man, can’t we go back to one we’ve already used before, back to the original one?’ ”
The beauty of the Patriots’ no-huddle is it can take many forms and speeds because of Brady.
It’s not technically one word, because a play call such as “Bama” would include an alignment call. Brady would bark out the call like, “Bama left.”
But the bottom line is the same: Brady uses one of the six game-planned calls when he wants to go fast, and that tells everyone on the field what they are supposed to do.
You just brought it back for me...Kids right, oh ____ (I better not get a TO for stating the play name!)
I heard Peyton Manning barking out "Alabama" as well in their playoff game.
