One thing that really reared up is that we run out of the same sets and throw out of the same sets. It's really predictable. How often do we throw out of double tights? We did one time today. How often do we run out of a spread? Maybe 3-4 times today. It doesn't take a lot of effort to figure out what we're trying to do. Fortunately, we have enough talent to still make some of the plays, but we make it incredibly easy... especially to D up the run.
I'd love to see us have a couple of play actions of the double tights and send the TE to a hook zone. Any play that doesn't use a roll out is fine. We've got to make our opponent respect the pass when we come out in that set. Everytime we do it now, they just bring everyone up and come upfield understanding the overwhelming odds that were running zone out of that set.
And when we show a spread, run a draw up the middle, or even try a little trap in the guard/center gap. I just think it would keep the defenses guessing at what might come and give us a lot more of an advantage. Early in the year, we mixed it up, but now its double tight = zone run or *maybe* roll out, and spread = all receivers out for the throw.
