What BBN said about it

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorJets offensive coordinator Frank Reich praised quarterback Geno Smith for changing the play on third-and-nine, which became a twenty-two-yard game-winning touchdown run by Braelon Allen.

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorIt's beautiful! The man looked at the plan, said no thank you, and won the game with it!

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorChip, he overruled his own coordinator in the middle of a game. I have covered governments that fell over less.

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorBut the coordinator loved it, Gloria!

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorOf course he did, it worked. If it had failed, that audible would be a coup and Mr. Smith would be in exile.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorExile.

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorLet me finish, because this is the part I love.

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorEvery office should have an audible button, and a boss who claps when you press it.

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorEvery office already has one, Chip. It is called doing what you want and hoping the numbers are good by Friday.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorI have changed my own scripts on air for twenty-eight years, and nobody has ever praised me for it.

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorBecause yours never won anything, Hank.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorRex has the scores, and I assume a strong opinion on who gets to change the plan.
