He should have used that against Georgia instead of us going 3 & Fitz and then promptly giving up a TD on their very first play from scrimmage. Instead he later goes for the fake punt which has never ever ever worked for us. If we score first against Georgia the pace of that game is totally different

Unless Thompson or Fitz could play X receiver, I would say no. Fitz is good because he is a good extra run threat. If we stuck him behind the QB, I doubt he would do much. If we put him out wide, he doesn't give us a weapon on the reverse like our slot receivers do. I would rather both of them concentrate on becoming better passers. They both have the run thing down pat. Of course having better pass blocking linemen would help out too.

Interesting, any effort to get Fitz the ball in space is probably a sound

strategy. He's pretty good at running.
