How the coaches expect him to accomplish this alone on one play is beyond me, though it is possible he goes Last Boyscout on the offense and slaughters them in a hail of gunfire. Of course, if he has to reload, he might not get everyone before they can get a first down. Although, personally, I see radio headsets as more of a strange addition than play cheat-sheets. Damon Wayans could throw a football, from horseback, after getting shot in the hand, through the window of a private box and hit his target square in the nose to prevent his assassination. I don't care what kind of painkiller addiction he had, that guy could QB my team anytime. November 8, 1:26pm ET
