I don't remember the option being an issue in 2007.



it wasnt

RP ran it well. He understood the spacing.

Jefferson runs it too straight line. Actually, a lot like his throws. He doesnt understand "touch" or "feel".

I remember RP running it, he would sag a little in the backfield, which would still draw a defender too him, but he would put the RB in a better situation, and still pitch it off for yardage.


Jefferson is just horrible at it, and rarely pitches it. And he goes down on 1st contact nearly EVERY time

Gary, please, turn the page in the playbook to the option...RIP IT OUT...TEAR IT UP...THROW IT AWAY.

Over the last two years the option has done nothing but lost yards every time.

If you have any illusions that it will work...go smoke some rope and forget about it.
