I have seen plenty of people excoriating the play caller, but I have yet to hear someone explain how this play was supposed to work. Any insights?

The QB looked surprised that the ball was actually snapped.  I think they were just trying to confuse the D and draw them offsides.

I have diagramed the play to make it simpler to understand.

I'm sure if he inserted a bonehead play like this many of you would call it a great play & blame the players for not executing it properly.

Clearly the QB wasn't ready for the snap, and he didn't execute the play properly.  If the QB were ready, obviously he throws a screen out to the receiver with an army of blockers in front of him, outnumbering the defense, and they easily get three yards for the first down. 

It's an option play, and the QB could run or throw a backwards pass to the receiver in the flat.  If the defense charges the receiver, he flips it over their heads to an open wide receiver behind them for a TD.

Beautifully explained. Hard to believe it didn't work.  Wink

You probably miss Coach Anthony Grant, too.

They were discussing on the radio that a Maine high school used the same play to win a game on the last play of the game.
