A 2 QB set is a great formation between the 40s because there are a zillion things you can do with 40-60 yards of turf that the defense has to cover. From inside the ten, zone/man/hybrid all dissolves into “ok, find the ball and hit it”. Its like using a tank to shoot at something 10’ away. It was ill conceived and the body language of our offense had “why the hell are we doing this now?” written all over it.
Half this post is proving my original.
To be fair there were lookout blocks on that play. But still.
This is true. It was almost as if some of the offensive lineman didn’t know what was going on.
Miami had the perfect blitz dialed up. They sent a CB blitz from the boundary and the H-back completely whiffed whoever he was trying to block and Pyron had 2 guys on him before he knew it. We could have run the same play without ZP in there and it would have resulted in the same. Maybe they wanted to see if Miami would burn a TO or get confused with the alignment but there wasn't anything really "trick" about the play call.
