They, like all teams, have their core set of plays that they love to run, and they have counter plays they run off their core set based on what defenses are doing. They practice these plays along with their special red zone packages and when the time is right, they use them.
This idea that it's a concerted effort and Reid is sitting there on a 4th and 5 in the regular season vs the Bills and going, "i got a great play here, but im saving it for this exact situation in the playoffs!" is such riduclous fan myth.

Absolutely. It's annoying as hell and it's just fans making excuses instead of owning that the execution of the plays is shit. "No no no if this were the playoffs he'd have dialed up some secret magical auto completion to save the day!!!!"
