That's what Jay Geuden was referring to, when he said this week that he wishes he had the players to "flex our offensive muscles".
But ultimately, successful coaches in football adapt their philosophy to their personnel. Obviously, having a porous OL is very different than switching from an outside the hash passing concept to a shallow cross and seam concept.
But I am with you, in that given our OL struggles, maybe some two TE or two back sets would be a good approach.
We have 3 good TE's in Eifert, Uzi and Sample. I would use them and spare one of our extra WR's and do like i have
been preaching for years and use Mixon and Gio more at the same time. The 3 WR set is great when you have 3 great
WR's, but we only have 1 for it in Boyd. Using the 2 TE set with 2 RB's that can catch the ball is downright devious and
we have the personnel.
