You are wrong. Plinko exsisted and worked vs zone or man. One reason
it failed is because teams stepped into the grey area of mutually caused
significant contact to stop it. Also, the math of raising completion
probabilities to the number of passes power didn't work out favorably
for Jam.

But it was exciting to watch and difficult to stop.

One question I have regarding Frank's offense is something that came
into play for Windy City's motion offense back in the day...If your
thrower is always moving isn't he going to get tired? And if he's
tired, isn't he more likely to make mistakes or be ill-prepared for
defense? That's what happened to Windy City and I think it also
happened to Jam.

Perhaps a balanced attack stance and prepared push-off moves
reduce fatigue?
