This is an example of good coaching that BB would be proud of. Clearly the Colts are preparing for even possible situation no matter how unlikely
I'm gonna go out on a limb and defend Pagano for this one. It actually wasn't a terrible concept. The purpose of the play was to make it seem like they were bringing the offense back out in hopes of making the Pats panic and waste a timeout. If it works, cool you made them waste a timeout. If they don't fall for it, you just take the delay of game penalty and punt the ball. I don't think the plan was ever to actually snap the ball and run the play.Priorities people.

This is the Colts. They think this IS special teams play.Priorities people. They should be working on new special teams plays.
Last in the division. What sad, pathetic losers.
Watching that play never gets old. It's like the Butt Fumble.
In theory yes, but it was clear they weren't prepared to run that play and it was especially bad because either the center or the QB wasn't even the guy who they designed the play for because one of them was injured and it was even more disorganized. None of the players were even close to lining up right for it to even have been a legitimate play.I'm gonna go out on a limb and defend Pagano for this one. It actually wasn't a terrible concept.

That moment was so surreal...did anyone else just assume there was a penalty or whistle? I was like "that obviously didn't count." And then....splat.Watching that play never gets old. It's like the Butt Fumble.

It wasn't supposed to be snapped but the guy who played "center" had never practiced that play and didn't know not to snap it.
You can defend Pagano's idea for the play but not its execution. He bungled that horribly.
Here's what happened on the Colts' horrible fake punt — the worst play in NFL history
