    Every single year I want us to open the season with a flea flicker bomb. We've never done it... and I know for a fact it would've worked at some point, while our other ideas have usually gotten us 0 yards.

    It'll be a handoff to Sankey for 2 yards. I'm sure we'll want to get the run game established early. Then we'll probably do the same thing on 2nd down for -2 yards. So we'll give Mariota a nice 3rd & 10 for his first NFL pass.

    Personally I'd take the opposite approach and let Mariota shred 'em through the air to set up the run game... Only chance for our run game to be decent.

    Yeah, my thinking is rookie QB in first official game of the season. Safe play is to hand it off to the RB, probably what defense is thinking too but pull it back and drop a pass!

    Im gonna go with the PA. Its the smart thing to do. Gets the D to overreact early, gets Mariota in a groove early.

    Id like to see another pass to Douglas like the one he ran down the field for a touchdown in thursdays game! But I honestly think they will run Sankey up the middle!

    I've actually thought it would be a hell of a lot better to leave any sort of surprise and big play for Mariota for the first play of that game since it's the home opener.

    That would be incredibly badass if he came out and threw a TD on his first pass at Nissan Stadium.
