I was remembering a thread discussing the screens, and an article or Twitter link, etc quoted Zac as saying they run a lot of screens early in the game to see what the defense was showing them. Then the haters all chimed in with stuff "are you not watching film of your opponent?", "you not scouting your opponent?", "you don't already know what the defense is doing?" and so forth. Now we know why they didn't know, and my assumption is they ran them because it was a little safer than going deep/intermediate not knowing what they're trying to do to you. I think it also shows just how damn smart QB9 is.

And the screens too many on here relate to only big plays. They are an alternative to a crap run game. With Chase and his lower body strength and safeties deep it’s a big play waiting to happen.
