What Audible is going to be called?


Do WE have anything else? A quick check down, a slant something? I have never seen anything but a delay handoff up the gut on that audible.

...better to have Phillips run onto the field and throw the challenge flag!

It will confuse the hell out of the opposition and by the time the dust settles the defence will have declared their alignment and Romo can run the play as intended without worrying about the pres snap reads and the rest of the noise teams are so apt to put into the game nowadays.

...the belly and breast waves start rolling as he gets in full stride the defence will be thrown off their game as they can't help but stare at the horror on the world's largest TV screen.

It's gonna work I tell you. He can go to it at least 3 times with his challenge flag before he has to give it up.

I was wondering why omaha?

It seems Eli uses Omaha too. Is it just that it is an easy word to yell, or...?

On a side note.

I have no earthly reason why, but when I see him on the sidelines sometimes I think of that annoying kid in the League of their own movie.

I think it's the Annexation of Puerto Rico play.

Yeah that's the thing, it takes all of two seconds to figure out what it means.

But Omaha isn't the audible from what Colinsworth was saying, Omaha means go on the next snap count and a lot of teams use it, including the Colts. Kill is the audible which Romo uses to check out of the play when there's a blitz.

Hey, we can steal it.

I think we already used the Omaha line from Eli...I think he says that as well.

Probably pretty standard.

But something more exotic would sound nice...HA HA OUI OUI.

Or how about something with humor...MOUSE FARTS MOUSE FARTS.

Or maybe something just completely confusing...RUN PASS PASS RUN BUNT BUNT BUNT.

I'll send you 5 dollars if that happens. And gladly so.

Imagine the defense cracking up while trying to run down a play.

Omaha is used for snap count purposes by a many different QBs (both Peyton and Eli use it). It has nothing to do with audibles.

'Kill' just means they're killing the play call in the huddle and going with an audible. I know one of their audibles is the draw/delay up the middle, but they also have pass plays that I've seen used after a 'kill'.

Neither of which are actual play calls.

Omaha means "opposite" or running the play to the other side from what I've heard, and "kill" means Romo is killing the play called in the huddle and going with a 2nd play.

Our passing game sucks in general. Teams just press our receivers, knowing they can disrupt their routes, which are long developing. By the time they are where they are suppose to be, Romo is running for his life.Passing game equals atrocious...
