If I&#039;m the coach of the Detroit Lions, I&#039;m saying screw it all, let&#039;s kick onside kicks, go for it on 4th down, go for two point conversions, run trick plays and so on.I mean, you&#039;ve got absolutely nothing to lose (except a top draft pick), why not play crazy? You don&#039;t even need to always play crazy, but damn it, your team sucks, do something. Just running a standard game plan is in essence giving up because your team is not going to win games running a standard game plan because YOUR TEAM SUCKS. AAARGH!You see it all the team, sucky teams are on the 50 yard line, have a 4th and 2 and they punt. WHY? Your team sucks, the other team is going to drive down the field and humiliate you, so why not go for it. You&#039;ll likely fail, because again your team sucks, but at least you&#039;re trying.Seriously makes me think that a majority of teams would do no worse without a coach and just having a computer randomly pick plays.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You know what really grinds my gears?</p><p>Teams that suck that play conservative.
