re: Convinced more than ever that we need a dual-threat quarterback...

i think you're recognizing that things are changing with the portal. It's going to be harder and harder to build a big dangerous passing game, because you don't have the continuity of players each year. i mean, it's always an issue in college football but now it's even worse. top players are going to be there 3 years only. first year most of them need development, and maybe 2. they could be stuck behind a more experienced guy. most of them will give you a good year or 2, but the 4th year won't be there, or you've got a new qb.

this year you are seeing lesser teams challenge with more old fashioned offenses. and yes, their qb's aren't afraid to take off, even if they are not great running athletes.

i'll be surprised if we don't see some more power football as time goes on. pro sets or variations - 1 back and 2 TE's. of course you'll always have the 3 or 4 receiver sets as well.

anyway, you've got to be able to have a power running game. that's why we're so bad in the red zone. what a difference last week when Josh Williams ran for 2 td's from the 20.
