I agree.I don't know...occasionally you need to call a play that is least expected. Often it works and everyone loves you.
I think Belichick just brilliantly out second guessed Carroll. If he hadn't, it would have been Carroll brilliantly outmaneuvering Belichick. Both of those guys are great coaches and only one of them was going to win. I think if you always go with the obvious "we're going to play our way" style, you end up being Marty Schottenheimer. You build a tough, winning team, and win a lot in the regular season until a really good teams schemes to beat you in the playoffs because you're predictable.
