by In order to show fans he is doing all he can to score points and win games, Coach Weis has been gracious enough to sit down and explain the Notre Dame playbook to us.
This is our off tackle play. In spring training I set out for us to be a physical running team. That didn’t work. We don’t really run this play anymore.
This is ND Sweep Right. It can either be a burden or a blessing. Sometimes both the guard and tackle pull around and we gain 10 or more yards a clip. Most times just the tackle pulls and it is a disaster. Tapping A repeatedly helps, err I mean get your hands off my chili.
This is 25 Left Pitch. This is where I like to put my high SAT score and astute knowledge of reverse psychology to work. This play is never meant to gain yards. We like to let our opponents think they are making plays in the backfield and beating our offensive line until we lull them into a false sense of security then, BAM we dominate. The BAM dominate part has yet to happen.
Our gut play is essential in picking up our 2-3 first downs a game.
PA 365 X Cut. I like to run this big boy after two punishing quarters of negative rushing yards.
563 Gun Four Z Out. As soon as we signed Jimmy Clausen I began coming up with the perfect pass play for him. It took hours upon hours of concept, design and redesign before it was complete. If our linemen weren’t so busy learning each other’s positions during camp this play would be more golden than a McDonald’s french fry (and crispy too).
327 Flood… FLOOD!? WHERE!? Oh yeah the play name. This play has yielded 10 consecutive sacks. Five alone against Michigan.
This is our flea-flicker the trickiest of tricky. Please no one tell Michigan State it is coming.

I heard Weis is going to start running the shotgun xy bomb soon. Just as soon as he finishes explaining the “1″ route to his receiving core. This is hysterical.

Does QB Eagles still have any eligibility left?
He could be the talent Charlie Weiss needs to look like an offensive genius and not just some random fat ass who likes to watch football and almost ate himself to death.
Wait, no? No, QB Eagles does not have any eligiblity left?
DAMN YOU TYRONE WILLINGHAM!!

I think the problem is that his receivers don’t zig-zag enough or leap 20 feet in the air
