For thinking this is possible but can you send game questions/ comments to the 'coaching headquarters' of an NFL team and at least have expectations that their office:/administrative/staff read them?

lol I am thinking outside the box most times and this one is outside of outside I know guys.

I have several game strategies and I will share one here shortly that has never been tried but would be 99% effective

lol crickets .. dumb possibilty I know...

Ok the other team has the ball on your 10 yard line with 10 seconds left in the first half. The offense will likely take on shot at throwing for a td so my calll as the defensive coordinator is to intentionally hold/grab/tackle all receivers and running backs immediately and take the penalty half the distance to the goal. Now there is only 4 seconds left on the clock.... not enough time for another play forcing them to kick a field goal. Mission accomplished.

It's "You may be right" by William Joel; your favorite song.

The foul/act still would be in the Eye of the Beholder and might require a little acting but the payoff would be great.

Not to say you aren't crazy.
