Emory and Henry formation
It's a pure #s game, and 4 option play, and the option goes towards the more confused side or where the numbers are best. Once they split out, if they are not prepared, the defense scatters to cover ground. Occasionally numbers or matchup favour one side and a screen pass is thrown that way. Typically as we've seen this year it's been an option run. 3 players and a QB vs 4 defenders. This turns into a read option, with the OL blocking everyone but one of the DEs, and Andy Dalton reads the DE.
While it's not typically the most explosive play, it's a very good way to get 5-10 yards based on matchups and it forces the defense to think about the option of the team doing that throughout the game
