Someone made a point re: play-calling becoming unpredictable, but actually game-playing AI have quite unconventional playing styles. In chess you often see AI making very odd moves that make no (human) sense, at least the way humans have traditionally been educated. I know Go players say the same thing of the recently omnipotent Go-playing computers. So theoretically I could see a football play-calling AI coming up with very weird ideas.

That's the thing about AI -- whether in stock trading, medical advice, whatever -- it's not trained to discard possibilities because of implausibility, as humans are. . Of course that's both a strength and a weakness.
