Will Peter Parrish be our Taysom Hill?

Would be cool

Nah. I hate the idea of taking the ball out of Dual Threat Joey's hands

I would not mind a few running situations with him to spare Burrow from taking expected hits for certain plays. But, taking Burrow off the field takes away play fakes. You won't have the element of surprise if same play is not in to run similar plays.

Yes, but wouldn't you want you best passer who also is a run threat to be the person handling the ball in most critical moments?

You may get a few fake plays with substitute, but teams will adjust the same way they did against T. Hill. He became less and less effective as the season went on.

To spare Burrow, I wouldn't be against a few designed runs in certain situations.

This is a narrow minded perspective. Aggressive offensive minds see "gadget plays" as an opportunity to gain chunk yardage or possible touchdowns. More importantly, these type of plays & others that are spun off them using the same personnel groupings/formations, provide another aspect for future opponents to spend time prepping for in the film room & on the practice field.

No

That may be asking too much for him as a true freshman.

But I hope the coaching staff gives a good look at Parrish and the other newcomers this fall to see how soon they can contribute.

Watch your mouth. PP may end up being the starter next year.

What gadget plays can parrish accomplish the Burrow can’t?

In terms lining up Burrow or Parrish in the slot or out wide, which player do you think would demand more attention? Burrow or Parrish? Which player is more explosive in space?

How about a WR...

But Burrow is pretty explosive.

If you want to give the Defense the threat of a second pass Burrow accomplishes that more.
