Trick plays that don’t work are always bad calls by the offensive coordinator, right? Hey, even Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator Todd Haley will agree with that statement.
“Yeah. I will take that as a bad call,” Haley said Thursday during his weekly talk with the media. “When they don’t work they are bad calls.”
While Haley was smiling when he made that last statement, he did later admit that the double pass trick play that he called in the first quarter of the Thursday night game against the New England Patriots during the team’s first offensive possession was off script.
