Reading the newspaper, I will type what I am reading; pretty interesting:

When Mike Pereira, the NFL's supervisor of officiating, sent a memo and a video tape to all 32 teams last week, his message was simple: no more sneak stuff.

Pereira's memo came in response to a strategy -- something called "Sugar Huddles" -- recently employed by the Jets. The clarification from the league could cause a distinct change in strategy when the Dolphins play at Giants Stadium this week.

Nonetheless, the Dolphins are preparing for it.

Against their first three opponents, the Jets would attempt to run a no-huddle offense while making several substitutions just before the start of the play to catch defenses off guard.

When the Jets tried the plan against the Colts, it worked well enough to for Colts coach Tony Dungy into calling a timeout.

Dungy later complained and the league responded by telling teams -- such as the Jets -- that it now will emphasize a rule already in place designed to stop the strategy. The no-huddle substitutions are still allowed, but the offense must give the defense ample time to respond with the on-field changes of their own.

And if they don't give ample time? The play will be voided and the offense will be warned. Any other violations will result in an unsportsman-like conduct penalty.

Wow... so now Dol-fans are looking to Dungy for some whining material.

dude its an article about how the jets were breaking the rule...who cares, don't get your panties in a bunch...
 
edit: i found it interesting anyways, because on miamidolphins.com the player interviews vid from yesterday kevin carter was talking about it because he was asked the question. I had no idea wtf they were talking about. he just said they were preparing for it.
 
I heard Tony Dungy complained to the NFL that his team totally sucks in the playoffs and that the NFL was considering giving the Colts an extra bye in the post season.

I heard that if your breaking a rule you should own up when caught.

Doesn't every team run the no huddle?

Yes every team runs the no huddle, but what i think they were doin was that they would run the no huddle and move up to the line but instead several players would ran off the field and others would replace on the field. By doin this, the players runnin on the field already know that play so they can line up right away and run the play without giving the defense enough time to do thier subsitutions.

I might be completely wrong, but that is what i got from the article.
