That isn't really how the read option works.  The QB is in reality a blocker not a runner.  He only keeps if defense doesn't account for him.  And teams are going to key in on Cam.

We are already running a lot of read option.  Just because Cam isn't running as much doesn't mean we aren't running it.

Plus if Online doesn't block their assignments you are going to go backwards.

 

Teams already figured how to stop it they have a defendeder that always attack the QB and LB or DE to contain the RB.

I don't really agree.  Read option is sometimes treated as an elementary school play that serves no purpose.  If it was so simplistic to stop then college would have scratched it a long time ago.  Cam went 15-1 last year with it.

We can't run the most simplistic traditional runs either.   I think the common theme is we just are a trainwreck up front right now. 

I mean people saying in 2012 vs the NYG the play should never be run again because the Giants blew up our front and ground game in prime time.  Pretty sure there was no blueprint set then until now that teams have used to shut it down.

      Nobody likes moral victories, but...

      I don't really like the phrase, "moral victory". I get what's meant by it, but does that mean that if you do the opposite (play poorly but win) it's an immoral victory? 🤔

      Team is looking good for next season

      I blame Evero because he is overrated. Vance Joseph created the defense in Denver that he took credit for. Wilks ran the ball down his throat and Darnold had a 103.8 rtg.  Last year we were decent in yards allowed, and horrible in everything else. Only reason? We kept giving up good field position.  He's had his choice of players to bring in since his scheme is so "complicated." Maybe he should stop trying to be so fancy like running Cover 4 on 3rd and 1 earlier and focus on fundamentals like tackling. These years of Eric Washington, Phil Snow, and Evero must have gotten you confused on what a real defense looked like. Go back and watch the McDermott and Wilks years- this dude is sofT.

      My Personal Takeaway from This Game vs Cheifs

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      I tried to make it a point in the opening post that I don't think the offense is a finished product. I think we still need more talent at WR, better play calling, catch more consistently, elimate ridiculous penalties,  and be more consistency in scoring points. I'm just saying, they look markedly better than last year imo. They have scored 20 or more in 6 games and 30 or more in 2 games. And that's particularly notable considering they only mustered 10 points and 3 points in first 2 games of this year and they got blanked on 0 points two games in a row to wrap up last season . I'd say that's a market improvement.  I'm not crowning them and saying we have a top 10 offense or anything.  I'm comparing them to themselves in recent history.
