"Run 53 Veer Pass," Royal said. The play called for Peschel to run a deep flag pattern. Mike Campbell, Royal's valued friend and defensive coordinator, heard the call and jumped back.
"Darrell," he said. "There's only one receiver out, and he's deep. It's all or nothing."
"Fifty-three Veer Pass," Royal repeated.
Campbell turned and gathered his defense around him.
"Get ready," he said. "We're fixing to give them the ball at our own 43, and we've got to stop them one more time."
Street turned as he headed on to the field, and walked back toward Royal.
"Coach, are you sure that's the play you want?" he asked. Emphatically, Royal told him that it was.
