Here is somebody who is thinking a lot like me.

And one more on the future of the 3 TE sets.....

"In Denver's first game of 2008, for the first few plays, Mike Shanahan flirted with the three tight end sets. He then switched to conventional ball. It's on his mind and he is an offensive mastermind. Shanahan is a lot of fun though. He's also played around with the old "option" plays seen in college too. My guess is that Shanahan would run a finesse version of the magic three system, while a team like Pittsburgh might run the smash mouth version.
Notably, the Patriots used the three tight end set for a series in the last regular season game in 2007 against the New York Giants. The offensive coordinator for New England at that time, Josh McDaniels, now coaches Denver and has many tight ends to play with."
I wonder if Kubiak or lil' Shan have been given the tablets from Mike?
