Offensive Matchups

[yasuhara2241]

With the additions of McCaffrey and Samuels I am very curious on the best offensive lineups we could have to create mismatches. Before the offseason started, most of us wanted a 2 TE formation to utilize the success Cam had with Shockey and Olsen. Now, I have a feeling we are going to run things that are slightly different. My desire would be the following: 

Cam QB,  2 RB (Stew & CMC), 1 TE (Olsen), 2 WR (KB & Samuels). 

Now with these players most teams would probably be in nickel defense bc a 4-3 or 3-4 defense would create way too many mismatches for the defense. The pick shows a team in a 4-3 but imagine Olsen out wide left, KB wide right and Samuels in the slot going against a LB or S. That is unfair especially because we could essentially motion CMC out to the other side for a 4 WR look and create even more matchup problems. Now we could still run the ball effectively as well with this personnel which could really create problems with a read option to Cam or just running with Stew if we are going against a nickel or dime defense. 

Any other formations you guys would like to see? I am so excited about the potential of this offense if we utilize it to the fullest.

Jet sweeps with Cam, McCaffrey, and Samuel.

Shotgun formations with McCaffrey and Smauel

Heck, just anything with anyone would throw off defenses and create huge mismatches.

How to guarantee the defense goes to base 4-3, 3-4. 

WR: KB & Samuels

TE: Olsen

RB: CMC

FB: Armah

From this we could actually go to a 2 TE set, utilizing Armah as 2nd TE or he could be the lone back pass blocking. We could have both CMC motion out of the backfield to create a 4 WR look with KB, Olsen, Samuels & McCaffrey. Imagine both Samuels/CMC lined up against linebackers!!
