For the 1,349th time, reduce Cam Mccormick's snaps from 71 (93%!) to about 40 snaps.
"But, Lu, we had a True Frosh QB and needed to establish the run."
- You can do that out of 4WR and WITH Smith in the backfield for anywhere from 6-8 plays/game
- You can run 4WR for the "extra 30" snaps in a game with 76 snaps.
- Within that 4WR, here are potential personnel groups:
(a) Brashard (RB), Young (SE), Ray Ray (slot), Restrepo (slot), George (X)
(b) Traditional RB, Young (SE), Brashard (slot), Restrepo (slot), George (X)
(c) Traditional RB, Young (SE), George (slot), Restrepo (slot), Horton (X).
Depending on the defensive adjustment, you can still run your IZ plays, and I'd love to see Brashard attempt some of those runs to the C gap.
I promise it won't actually hurt to try! And, no one is saying kick Cam completely out of the lineup.
