Two plays that will kill the Giants pass rush

I'm watching the Packers/Vikings game and the Pack are killing the Vikings with shovel passes. It looks like a broken play, but it is definitely designed to be run that way. Favre goes back, let's the pass rush come at home, then just underhands the ball to the back right behind the center.

Since the Giants don't really have DT, instead two outside DEs and two inside DEs, we can exploit this by running some delayed shovel passes and draw plays up the gut. We all know JJ is at his best running the ball on delayed hand offs. Barber should also be effective taking the shovel passes.

This should slow the Giants pass rush a bit and allow Romo to get time to hit some deep passes.
