If you want to start out at H-Back and do some kind of motion into the backfield, then okay fine. However, absent that or some kind of motion where you can present the threat of a handoff, the defense knows you're lining up to throw it. I would just much rather keep the threat of a run present, regardless of intention. I'm typically not going to be hammering the run button often but Jake was drowning early and Minnesota is one of the most aggressive defenses in the league. I was wanting something to slow them down.
The thing with Sample back there besides his stellar pass pro, is he gives you a nice safety valve too.
