Why don't we do this more? When we do (about 1 in 10 plays), it's either the little shovel to Lemon or it's the swing pass to Lemon, or a running play. Which in my eyes is a key that defenses can use against you.

If our WRs struggle getting off the line of scrimmage against press coverage, why not mix it up and make it so that the CB has to chase the guy? Why not have the guy who is in motion do an out and up, or a circle route to get the corner back moving one way, then another, and then another.

I realize it's a little tougher to do in a "no huddle" situation. But our offense is not the Bills K-Gun. We don't hurry up and just go. We hurry up to stand still, then wait for 5-10 seconds then snap.

I like the pace, but we need to mix it up so that this group of WRs, who as has been noted can't get separation, aren't standing at the line of scrimmage 95% like sitting ducks.
