I couldn't believe it when I saw that in the game last night, Peyton having to look up to see if he could snap the ball. What's next, letting the refs know if your are going to run or pass?

I bet they change it, the first time a QB fades back, and stuffs the ball in the umpire's gut, much like the handoff to a running back........wow, look how big those linebackers look now, Mr. Umpire!! :eek:
