Neither a 9 or an out are easy short throws.


A 9 route is not a slow developing route its straight upfield, and the short out route from the slot is def is a quick out, and its opened up by the 9 route. Literally a textbook route combination on an RPO.


LOL why do you not even get this much?

If you want to say secstatcat.com is wrong about the playcalls be my guest. They’re not though.

Two major issues I see that's causing you a lot of confusion.

1. You think receivers block on read options and run routes on RPOs, this isn't true. Receivers run routes all the time to pull defensive backs out of a designed running play.

2. You think NFL and college RPOs are the same when they're two different concepts because the NFL has different rules regarding downfield blocking.

Man, you are so wrong it's scary.

A 9 route is NOT an easy throw. Yes, a 9 and quick out are used in RPOs, but rarely without a slant coming behind them from a trips formation. They are CLEARING routes in a RPO concept. Every now and then, if you get the right match up with a single high safety, you'll throw to the 9. If the QB gets flushed, the out is the outlet pass to avoid a negative play.

What you're not grasping is that there WAS NO PASS OPTION FOR THE PLAY.

1. The runs were inside or followed the back
2. No zone blocking, straight run blocking the whole way
3. No slants
4. Finely doesn't even LOOK at the backside end. In fact, the O-Line allows him to get up field.

All of this adds up to one conclusion, they were designed QB runs the whole way.
