You must mean that Lions team as that play was not rare in the 1960s at all. Rare today.TheLionKing wrote:Back in the days when Larscheid played it was rare for anyone other than the quarterback to be throwing passes.

While we all remember his 13 yard scamper for a first down in the 1985 Grey Cup, let's not forget the other successful risks Lui Passaglia took in the other playoff games. In the 1977 playoffs, he completed is 1 pass attempt for 31 yards and in the 1979 playoffs, he also attempted his 1 pass attempt for 20 yards.

J . Clermont has a strong arm. Watched him throwing some beautiful passes hitting geroy in full flight deep down the sideline during training camp about 3 years ago. I believe he was listed as the number 3 guy once or twice since hes been here due to injury.

Okay, did anybody see him make any passes at training camp? It would be exciting to see the Lions execute the halfback option play.sports & stuff----ric wrote:J . Clermont has a strong arm.

You are right and I know I have heard Wally tell the media he feels the percentages for success are far too low for trick plays so he is not a fan. I think you should have them in your trick bag to be used only sparingly. All teams have something up their sleeves for special occasions that could be considered trick plays but some will be more frequent flyers than others.Lion Guy wrote:Lions don't seem to fans of the trick play. Don Mathews maybe, DD and Wally not so much.
Players love the trick plays as it is exciting and fun.

Antwaan Randle El did it again on Sunday's game when he passed for a touchdown, this time as a Washington Redskin.Robbie wrote:One such play was a key point in Super Bowl XL when Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antwaan Randle El received a handoff well behind the line of scrimmage, and then he threw a 43-yard touchdown pass to a wide-open Hines Ward.

While not a half back option, Paul McCallum has passed the ball twice this year on third downs with tremendous results. Two for two with 53 yards.
