Nick’s sketch of a hypothetical 2-on-50 football play.

Nick: Well, uh

Manny: Hahaha fuck!

Nick: This is enough for 14 on the line, 26 in the secondary, seven way back in a sort of prevent defense, and then … just for the hell of it, if I were them, I’d put three more a few hundred yards back just for safety. Have them hide in the trees or something and ambush us.

Nick: All nine, though. You’d have to snap all nine. So that means no shotgun.
