And the '83 championship team had a walk-on FB (Albert Bentley) like we may have with Washington being discussed....
Did these guys actually use championships from over 30+ years ago to actually help prove my point? You do understand that at those times it made sense but the game of football has evolved right? Anyway like ghost said he probably wont be on field enough anyway and with how guarded practices have been Pete has got to make articles on something so its no biggie.
I didn't know the 2001 team was 30 years ago or those Baka teams either. Point being when you have the talent you can use all kinds of personnel packages, and there is nothing wrong with having a package that employs the fullback/h-back. It's called being versatile

Being versatile for the sake of being versatile is usually a fail. We did that garbage last year. I don't remember what game it was but we looked like our OC was calling his plays by rolling the dice. We were in 21 personnel one play then 10 personnel the next.
Usually when you try to be good at a bunch of different ****, you end up not excelling in anything, you just end up being mediocre at a bunch of different ****. (rather than being great at one thing)
IMO there's really no reason to get under center and run traditional Pro Sets. Any play that we wanna run out of that formation can be ran out of the gun/spread. Power, Iso, Counter, etc.
I don't pretend to be an X's and O's guy, didn't play enough Madden to qualify, but what I do know after watching for so many years, and hearing from and talking to actual players, is that it makes no difference what scheme you run, what matters s having the talent to run that scheme, execute it better than the opponent, call the right play at the right time.
And according to these, the concepts and formations we have seen is nothing new, nor innovative, and its basic principles are still the same as they were when George Halas first walked the sideline for the Bears. It's just window dressing
What I find funny is this close minded attitude towards the "pro style offense" as if it doesn't work, or it's a relic. Last I checked it's worked today, just like lining up in the gun works today as well. All that matters is talent and execution regardless of formation
