No. That's not a type of offense you can just sprinkle into the gameplan

To be successful with it, you have to be a well oiled machine timing wise and that takes a LOT of practice

Plus it makes no sense when you have mammoth Lineman. That offense is built to disguise the weaknesses of a smaller offensive line

Good point. This O line was designed for some trench battles. Pound the ball and show the opposing defense who is stronger.

This ... plus due to the timing required, it can be a high risk, high reward offense.

incorrect, you need large guards to hide the FB who is positioned closely behind the QB

just sayin
