That was exactly my point. With Drew in there you dont have a receiver or a blocker.

Yes, but what happens when the defense completely ignores Drew, and Taysom hits him for 6? It's gonna happen, just watch.

Or as I told my wife to watch this past weekend: Drew is dropping two or three steps back on these play. It'll be the standard and the CB protecting him will have seen it on film studies over and over.

So when Taysom throws it backwards to Drew and he launches it deep for a TD no one will be ready for it. New play, six points.

We already have. Before Sean and Drew the philosophy was feed your best player. Now it is spread it around! Alon Saints!

Isn’t that basically the idea behind the wildcat? Except the safeties can’t stack the box because they HAVE to respect his ability to go downfield after that pass play to Thomas.

But he hasnt so far. Maybe its a decoy for something unexpected at some point, but so far it just seems like we're a man short.

We are on a Super Bowl run, Sean is doing things intentionally to set up expectations. Taysom was not as active this Sunday as he was in past weeks if you noticed... or maybe I just didnt see it.

I firmly believe Sean has some unrevealed tricks up his sleeve WRT Taysom that we're not going to see 'til playoff time or some critical games down the stretch. He's setting folks up I tell ya...
