Having two speed guys to take away the safeties and corners does a lot for opening up the underneath. All Jacoby has to do is catch one or two deep passes and make the defense pay attention to him.

    I don't like his inconsistent hands either, but if he can open things up underneath for Boldin, the TE's, and Rice, then it will be a good thing.

    So it's well documented that I (and the rest of you) are more imaginative than Cammie, but IF, however, we DO implement the no-huddle* then I would like to see a nice decoy package at some point with R2 lining up as the lone wide-out opposite a bunch formation, or more conventionally in the slot opposite Q. We actually saw this (i.e., R2 out wide in a 4 WR set) in PS'10.

    Agreed....and the NH would amplify this quite a bit.

    Speed also draws pass interference flags. Torrey Smith caused the most pass interference yards last season.

    true, many ways you can be an effective part of the offense without even catching the ball.

    Wicked actually brings up a good point. The kicker could have called timeout if he wanted to. Couldn't he?

    Any player on the field can call a timeout. Assistant coaches or players on the sidelines cannot call a timeout. Of course the head coach can call a timeout also.

    Rex Ryan called an infamous one a few years ago that cost us the game against the Pats.

    Billick took the heat for him, to an extent, only for Rex to stab in the back that same season, as documented in Rex's book.

    It was a recent rule change that assistants can't call timeouts now.
