This looks more like the rpo every one runs and we are going to run.
This is not RPO, this is just shotgun triple option with the pitch guy out to the sideline. In a legal RPO, the pass has to come out quickly because your OL is run blocking, and would be ineligible receivers downfield if the throw doesn't occur immediately after the read. This is why several of those plays aren't RPO triple option, because 95% of the time if your third option is a forward pass to a receiver, your run-blocking OL will be far enough down field that it will be an illegal pass.
And yet it would appear that they don't get called, which is pretty much why I hate the RPO: it's an offense designed around the fact that the refs will never enforce the rules as they're written. The Chiefs had a guy 5 yards downfield on their play. The Eagles had a guy 4 yards downfield on their play. You're only allowed 1 yard downfield in the NFL. The Ole Miss play was probably illegal too but I can't blame them because it looks borderline with the liberal college rules. [3 yards]
Maybe with better education in an RPO world, the refs will start calling these violations better. I don't mind teams being able to pass the ball with run blocking, but whatever passes they throw need to come out quickly, and if the QB pulls the ball back in and then decides to throw it later, the refs should be trained to look for where the lineman were.
tl;dr all the plays shown are either illegal RPO [the ball is held too long and the blockers are downfield], or a variant on the shotgun triple option with the pitch man out close to the sideline.
