Yes it is hard to have a good passing game without a breakout WR so what do we do? Pass more times in 1 season than ever before.

Nassib also can't throw deep balls. Perhaps he's not the answer.

OL issues can be masked by running deception and option style plays.

Play Action only works when the opposing defenses believe the run is a legitimate threat. And our running game was average at best. Not to mention PA also requires the ability to throw the ball accurately and with touch.

Yes you can run a spread without a breakout WR, the idea is to spread the defense making the running game easier. Yes some spreads are heavily based on passing. Others, like WV with White and Slaton was almost exclusively the opposite. I understand we don't have those two guys on our team, but I'm not asking for 40+ points a game either. Kinder and Bailey could have run a very good offense based on deception and option.  At least better than the bottom 2/3rds of the country.
