With all this O-line and runningback talk, I was thinking that some of the big plays in the running game might not even come directly from the runningbacks. I guess we don't know what Fisch has in store yet.
Granted Bennett,Whaley, Eskridge etc will get the up the gut, grind it out carries that are so important to an offense, but will there be more of an emphasis on end arounds, WR reverses, Qb sweeps or pass/run options?
I know the big highlight run from the spring game was Stoudemire breaking off a big reverse for a TD, and I would think Gray will have an impact running the ball, causing the D to respect the LOS more and play the pass a bit less. Misdirection and PA can definitely play into a running game as much as a classic off tackle or iso running play.
Any thoughts?
