    The easiest explanation is it's a QB cadence that can mean many things. It can be a single to snap the ball on the next sound. It can be a signal to not snap the ball because the QB is going to use a hard count. It can also be used to single an audible. Basically, whatever the QB using it wants it to mean for a given game. It was mostly a Peyton and Eli thing but in the past Tom Brady would use it as well.

    Very entertaining game. I was getting ready for overtime and didn't expect that ending for sure.

    No shit. My first game to old Yankee Stadium, 76 or 77.....blew me away because the field was the most beautiful color green I had ever seen. The blue walls in contrast and the white facade......magical day even though the Tigers won. Up until that day....saw all the games in b&w.

    Wow I thought you were joking....I remember watching a 10 inch TV the day after Thurman Munson died in b&w....and I was only 6 years old. Will never forget how Murcer stole the show.

    Ok no I was 10 lol I am having flashbacks of old Yankee games. It was a sad day indeed. As a kid I thought I would handle it better. But no it was a day I will never forget.
