Stubborn? I'm going to force this play and we're going to make it work. Then forever more the young men will know they can do it and be able to whenever we want. I can get down with that some in the sense you want to make the team believe it, but this is case study number 17 of it not getting done.
Or
I'm so smart I'm going to call the same play. There's not a defensive coordinator on the planet who thinks I'm going to do the same thing so we'll get it this time. They won't expect it and they'll be caught with their pants down.
Or
WTF, this **** works every time on out defense. There's not supposed to be a guy there two times in a row. How are these guys so disciplined? We don't see this in practice.
Who knows. The real truth is mind boggling. There's one constant about football though. You overload an area, someone is going to get free. When you're outnumbered the odds are against you and we keep running this inside stuff outnumbered on short yardage situations. They're daring us to run outside, slip a TE out, throw a quick out route etc. They set up to stop the inside run and what do we do? We run right into the teeth of it. It's maddening.
