I agree with the tight ends. Don't want to see anymore of the draw. Make it a QB Option Draw and I'd like it more.
What's one play you want to see Sat?

Hicks getting the ball on first and goal from the 2 when he's the guy who carried the majority of the way down there. I know Kock is a guarantee 1 or 2 yards, but it seems unfair to let Stevie do all the work getting down there, and not getting anything to show for it.
If I had to say something other than the Meyer taking a knee play (in the 4th, not the second quarter) I would like to see us isolate Blythe with two recievers to the other side. This would make the it a fairly easy read to decide if there is double coverage to Blythe's side, and if not, chuck him the ball. If there is double coverage he has eaten up two defenders by himself, meaning that there is either single coverage of the other two recievers or only 7 guys in the box. If there is single coverage throw to that side and utilize some WR screens to Flynn (maybe even get creative and have Flynn throw the ball somewhere?) If there are only seven in the box we need to be able to run the ball for a respectable average.
It strikes me as a bit of a waste of a huge recieving threat in Blythe when he is on the same side as other recievers because it allows the defense to drop one fewer guy into coverage and still always have deep help on Blythe.
I realize this is more of an offensive gameplan vs a play, but this is something that could be done to effectively utilize our most potent offensive threat. It should especially apply in the redzone, where the Meyer to Blythe fade is going to be good for a TD the vast majority of the time there is single coverage, and should be given a chance far more often.

Life's not fair...when it's short yardage we need, I want to see the ball in Kock's hands not Hicks. If Hicks needs to be rewarded, then Kock can buy him a ice cream cone as a thank you for setting him up...:biggrin9gp:
The play I'd most like to see...
#1 has to be the before-mentioned Meyer taking a knee with :30 left in the game...
But how about...
The Quick Hitter. It's a running play off-tackle or off-guard where the handoff is instant and the hole is wide, the RB runs North-South and forces a safety to try and tackle him. It worked for Troy, Darren, and Ennis.

4th and 1 naked bootleg by Meyer.
And also the knee with 30 seconds in the 4th quarter....by Meyer, of course.

Meyer standing back in a well protected pocket, looks off his first two receivers and hits the third choice for a 40+ gain.
The one he scored in Ames against Nebraska that Bret threw high up into the air and he ran under to catch and ran away from the defender.
