    our snap count (or call at the LOS) is "go...go?"

    While I realize this is a fairly trivial question to ask, I just don't get it. What's wrong with "hut hut?" Does any other team do this?

    Also, it seems to me the snap is almost always on "go...go", and not "go." Am I right? Or, am I just not paying close enough attention?

    Thanks in advance to anyone that can shed some light on this.

    I believe the snap call at TAMU was also "go".

    Here they snap the ball either on the first "go" or the second "go".

    Doesn't sound complex enough to ever draw a defensive lineman offside.

    Very simplistic. But maybe that's fairly common?

    So, it's simply a carry over from the same system that Tannehill and Sherman ran at Texas A&M? Thanks for the straight answer CK.

    Well, you know...that's kinda why I asked. It also seems to me the defense can better anticipate the snap.

    Do you not watch many of the games? The Dolphins seem to get an encroachment or offside penalty quite often.

    For that matter, David Garrards snap with us was a quick "huuuuuuuuuu....setgo!" . as opposed to a tanny-a-go-go



    Edit: although it's drawn a few flags, it seems way too predictable now, especially after the whole JJ watt nonsense



    EditEdit: IMO, Tanny should just sing like he did on Hard Knocks, and snap the ball mid verse.

    Maybe we could get more with a different hut-go-hut-what?-go snap count. :)

    I still think it should be

    "leaaann on meeeeee-GO"

    2nd go is optional

    He's so used to hearing Lauren use it as a pre snap count when she is almost done with him at night.

    It's a mental thing. On the youth team I coach we say "HIT" or "HIT HIT" or whatever the snap count is. You want the snap count to roll with maximum effect. He seems to not change up the count enough for my liking. I like to set up the defense with 2 or 3 long snap counts then throw a silent or a quick snap count. When you use a fast, no huddle offense, you have to keep the snap count the same and rely on your opponent getting tired and start making mental mistakes. With that being said you have to make sure your team's offense is in tremendous shape to avoid the same mental mistakes.

    See, that's kinda where I was going when I started this thread. And, while I thought there might be a few smart-alack comments, I never dreamed this thread would turn into nothing more than a punchline.

    IMHO, only having two options ("go" or "go...go") limits your ability to draw the defense off sides. Someone posted that we are drawing defenses off sides frequently. Personally, I haven't seen it. I also think he gets into a habit of calling it on the first "go."

    I've seen it more than the last few years combined. Especially in the first six games or so. It hasn't been just go or go go either. There are silent snaps.. he'll say go go and then pause and or audible into something else. Just enough to keep the defense honest.

    I hear Brady using "GO" as his snap call a lot too, I also notice that it's usually on the 2nd "GO" as well. I think they should add a few in there to confuse the defense but hey what do I know. In all honesty I don't care what he uses, its just nice to have a QB that I don't think is gonna make a mistake every time he steps behind center like previous ones.

    In RT I trust.

    It doesn't matter to me if he says, hut, go, or anything else. All I care about is him picking up his game at the QB position. Seven TD passes and twelve interceptions, along with a QB rating of 72.3 isn't getting it done, as far as I am concerned.

    I really don't care that he is a rookie. Because Luck, RG3, and Wilson are all rookies and they have far better stats than Tannehill. In fact Brandon Weedon has the exact same QB rating with the Browns and he has thrown six more TD passes than Tannehill and only two more interceptions.

    Right now Tannehill is having the worst overall season statistically, of the five rookie QB's who have been starters the entire season.

    no your not dreaming. It is part of the problem. I also noticed it. Just another inherent advantage lost to a rookie QB. I noticed it around game 3. Don't really think Hut Hut matters. If it was me I would try to change it all the time/

    Apparently you did not see the piece on Tanne and the ops he had against New England. Had he hit just 2 or 3 of them we probably would have won.

    There is a lot more in his snap count that may not mean nothing to you or me but means everything to the offense. All those things he's calling out could be a mental thing for the defense to keep them mentally guessing what he's doing. Keeping the snap count the same after all that will minimize the mental mistakes from the O-line. He has called the defense offsides a bunch this year. I think he got three or four just in the Colts game.
