Burrow says the RPO offense is the offense he's been running since he was 13 or something like that. If they were planning on running the RPO offense before he got here, why would it change after he got here? That makes no sense to me at all.

We ran some degree of RPOs most of the year.

We saw some RPO.

Two teams may run the exact same offense but use completely different terminology for calling plays. I don’t think the offenses were that similar. Probably different routes for receivers. Sure you can study a playbook all day long but you really only learn by calling the plays and getting tons of reps.

When a gameplan is installed for a game a team will run those plays over and over that week. Of course many are part of the offense every week but some plays, while being part of the playbook, are only used against certain teams and defenses. I realize if we run 80 plays in a game we probably only run maybe 25-30 different plays but the qb has to know formations and where everyone else has to lineup. Only having fall camp to learn the base offense is not much time.
