The bubble screen was hated on here. It was vilified like the short side option and the pitch power. My my my how times have changed.

Yep. The bubble screens were part of Crowton's offense, and don't work if A) you can't get personel on and off the field quickly, B) your QB isn't accurate, C) your opponent's DBs can make an open field tackle. The rant's call to arms back then was that Crowton/Miles were trying to be too cute, when we should be just lining up and running at teams or using play action. If you stay here long enough without getting sick of it you see people calling for the same things they were shite talking three or four years ago.
