If you all remember 2 years ago in texas stadium coach zorn had the Commanders run a fake punt for a first down. Last week the Commanders threw off a punt for a huge big first down.

Will the Commanders try a onside kick to fool the cowboys and get the football to score quickly?

I am going to try to look at the cowboys kickoff return team, and see if the players on the front line are running backwards when the opposing kicker starts to kick the football.

Zorn is sneaky, and if you remember in the superbowl, the steelers pulled a fake kickoff towards an onside kick that got the steelers back in the game for awhile.

what do you think, is coach joe d ready for that?

they also had a fake fg for a touchdown in week 1 vs the Gmen. the coaches better have them prepared for all kinds of trickery.

The Redsk*ns are in desperation mode and will definitely try some trickeration against us.

Now that Zorn has had pretty much everything taken from him, calling trick plays is all he has left.

onside kick, double reverses, flea flickers, fake field goals, fake punts. they better be ready for all of it.

I think last week’s game vs Denver, Skins once again showed they are willing to gamble on special teams as they faked a FG and threw for an easy TD. So that should be a very recent reminder for guys to play heads up on special teams

With the way Wade celebrates missed field goals he would probably have a heart attack if we stopped a fake.

Hell I celebrate on opposing team FG misses or blocks which we have had a couple this year, object is to prevent the other team from putting up points.

The Fist Pump makes it official.

By some miracle if we win the Super Bowl, I can only imagine the fist pump there.

Uhh... What?


Perhaps the Ol' Zorny shows a lot of Moxie and gives Big D the sneaky-slip with the trusty 23-skidoo; becoming the "bees knees" in D.C.

That'd be just swell for the Dapper Dandies on Capitol Hill who chime in with 2 part harmony on "Hail The Commanders" on Monday morning - you see...

Was Zorn even the coach 2 years ago?
