Re: Why dont the Redskins use audibles?

Not to sound like a Mr. Know it all but we ran this same system when I played. We used the passing tree 0-9 on 80% of our pass plays. You can change the play if you want to. They can use hand signals. If you can do it in HS then you should be able to do it at the pro level. Not having audibles in crazy.

I heard that on the 3rd and 7 draw, Gibbs gave Campbell the freedom to audible to a pass, but with Philly showing blitz before the snap, Campbell stuck with the call. Philly dropped the linebackers, effectively killing any chance Portis had to score. That said, I like the fact that Campbell was at least given a chance to change the play. Allowing him to run the no huddle against Philly also demonstrates growing confidence that the coaches have in him.
