Zone Read. You don’t have to be a runner to run the RPO effectively….

He's as fast as his receivers. Should win some games with his feet alone.

The linebacker/nickel that is being read on the RPO is way more likely to bite on the run if he is having to anticipate either the QB or running back running the ball. Especially since the QB would be the one he is anticipating running to the outside.

The guy being read aka nickel or linebacker, doesnt know which play is being called, whether it’s a traditional one read RPO or a Zone read. So it’s just giving the defense more to think about. Also there are plays that are essentially triple options, where the QB can pass, hand off, or take it himself.

It helps in the same way thata good running quarterback helps every play. They have to account for the QB. They have to actually play 11 vs 11 instead of the usual 11 vs 10.

But the RPO was designed to put the same pressure a zone read put on the defense with a non mobile QB.

RPO’s are effective with a pocket passer. A runner at QB just puts more pressure on the defense with literally any play call.

True enough, but it helps more on an RPO than on say a hand off out of I formation or a pass out of scat protection(everyone goes out for a pass except for the 5 o linemen.) The reason is a RPO looks exactly the same as a zone read to the defense. So them having to account for the QB keep puts a lot of pressure on them. Also like I said, there is the triple option RPO play where a QB can pass to the hot read, hand off, or keep it himself. It’s hilarious how NFL and college offensive coordinators talk about having a mobile QB being beneficial for the RPO, but this board thinks they are smarter and know better just because a few idiots confuse RPO and zone read.

For a QB speed comparison, fastest Lamar Jackson has been clocked at is 21 MPH. Same as Daniels.

But yes, all other things being equal, the QB being able to run is a huge advantage. If one were creating a QB in a lab, one would choose him running a 4.4 rather than running a 5.4.

And if you were being facetious, fine. But you have to realize the type of things people say here, there is seriously no bar to low as far as lack of football knowledge. And one can’t detect sarcasm via writing other than something being completely and obviously absurd, which again there is no limit to when speaking about intricacies of sports.

Sounds like you may have some Daniels issues.

To be fair there were quite a few NFL and College coordinators very recently who didn’t understand the RPO either.


I’ve never denied the fact that a running QB is beneficial to the RPO. Like we’ve both said it’s beneficial in every single play an offense will run.

I just get in a tizzy when people, especially talking heads who SHOULD know what they’re talking about, claim that a QB MUST be able to run to run an RPO effectively. When in fact the RPO is to slow quarterbacks what the veer was to skinny linemen.

Yes the veer is more effectively ran if you can run it behind 5* linemen because everything is more effective if run behind 5* linemen.

The point is it was designed as a countermeasure to a deficient personnel grouping just like the RPO.
