wow coach 🔥 you had me feeling like I’m in film room. get exactly what you mean by these opening drives having “trick plays” (except they’re not really trick plays) 🤫Had a OC named Gary Crowton he showed me a glimpse of that in real life.
Yes, it's splitting hairs but I refer to it as a PSO (Pass/Screen Option). The QB is just protecting the Run Game with a Key Screen. Usually that decision is made pre-snap, not post-snap like a downfield RPO.
