thanks for pointing that out i guess, and i'm sorry my hypothetical situation was wrong. Moss would never be in the game in a goal line situation when we run the ball is what you're saying?
When running the ball in teams use all sorts of formations...some bring in an extra offensive lineman to line up where the TE usually does and they have the TE line up as a wing next to him. That means 6 Linemen, 2 TEs, 2 RBs in an I formation thats stronger than having 3 TEs. One team even brought in a Defensive Tackle to play in that spot last year for goal line runs. Also teams/the redskins sometimes keep recievers in down at the goal line while running too. there are many packages, not just 3 TEs, you shoulda mentioned that while correcting my post.
Many player packages are used while running at the goal line, not only the one I mentioned. I didn't think I needed to mention that, but I was wrong.
