Outside zone and stretch were awesome on Saturday. Not sure I have seen that much improvement in one week by an offense. Really opened everything up from rpo's to vertical pass game.
Doeren post game break down...
"They were running, whether it was a jet or a stretch play, they were running the edge plays on our defense. Several times, particularly early, they were RPO plays where they had posts behind them. They put you in a deal where you’re DBs have got to make some plays and you’re having to come up out of zone coverages and set edges. Sometimes we did and they cracked our edge and we didn’t replace it very well.
They were putting their formations to the boundary in the second half and pinning our backer and getting around it. They did a good job. Those were plays they hadn’t run, we hadn’t practiced, and we didn’t do a good job adjusting to them. That’s the biggest thing. You have to be able to adjust throughout the game when you get things you didn’t practice. It’s something that we have got to get a lot better at, obviously."
