I've uttered this a hundred times but those 5-6 yard gains set up the big plays and also they have a chance on a missed tackle to go for 20 yards. It's got to be about picking and choosing your opportunities and if your OL is struggling early on then you have to incorporate this thinking into the game plan.

Would love love love to see quick hitters on 1-2 step drops to their wide-outs and let them be the RB. DB's playing several yards off the ball and that play goes for 5-6 yards without a blink and plenty more if they allude a tackle. Big Ben and the Steelers made a habit of that and that opened up more downfield plays.

Exactly.
