This frankly is not true, but yeah, the first part is. Brady has gotten rid of a lot of the option routes and stuff that Daboll favored and simplified the offense for Josh. It is fairly vanilla in terms of concepts but what makes it effective is (1) our run blocking is just generally awesome and that helps both in the run game and also helping to create more openings in the pass game and (2) the roles within those concepts change so even if the defense is expecting a certain pass concept, they don't really know which players are running which routes.

Some defenses have been able to effectively pass receivers off to one another and basically allow them to cover the routes rather than the players but obviously that hasn't consistently worked as evidenced by the fact that we've been close to the #1 offense in the league since hiring Brady.

Ultimately, nobody would likely be complaining about the offensive system if Josh was executing it well but for whatever reason he's been off his game most of the season and has had to fall back on bad habits as a result.
