2017 Style of Offense

With Andrew Bunch being added to the QB mix...do you potentially see a package of plays hoping to mix in some QB run game as a change of pace to what Lee will be doing?

That's a guy who will most likely sit except in case of injury, so it seems like the staff might want to get some sort of mileage out of him.

Tough to say yes. If it was incorporated at all, especially with Lee, it would be a 1 or 2 time per game thing. With POB and Gebbia I could see it a little more frequently but not more than 5-7 times per game.

Personally, I would rather the QB we have use their mobility to extend the play and hit a 15 yard pass instead of keeping the ball on a read option and picking up 9 yards.

The QBs we have aren't dynamic runners like Armstrong or Martinez, but outside of Lee have some decent mobility. I believe we can keep the threat of QB run without the QB running 15 times per game, think back to Kellogg III, he never kept it but the defense couldn't just ignore it completely because he could have and the one time could cost them a big play.


Sorry I think I misread your question. With regards to Bunch, I believe he is an emergency QB and scout QB.

Hopefully we get back to blowing people out so bad that we can play our backups in the second half. Haven't seen that in a while except for a non-con game here and there

I wouldn't count on that. Even OSU doesn't appear to do it very much. Burrow appears to have only played in 5 games, and never had more than a couple of runs or 6-8 pass attempts. He probably spent the most actual time on the field, in our game with them.

I based the 70/30 purely off of talent. We switched to a pocket QB and recruited loads of talented WRs for a reason, and that reason is that they want to air it out. If you factor in RBs catching passes on wheel routes and RB screens, I don't think 70/30 is unheard of, especially if they can get good production when they DO run the ball.

Certainly may be so in a few games. TheY will start with their game plan and adjust too what the D is doing. If a team stacks in the box ( o-linemen can't block two at a time ); the ball is going over and around them. Stir in misdirection and they like to chuck it long unexpectedly . Go team..
The coaches know if we can run; we will control the ball and the game. We had a few dominant games where we managed to do this. Outcomes aren't scripted and choices can lead to emotional changes in events.
