[QUOTE="stylee, post: 46092, member: 882"] (1) The "old" RnS reason for sending the guy across was to help diagnose coverage pre-snap. Does a defender move across the formation with the motion slot? Probably a Man coverage. Does a safety rotate down to the Trips side? Probably a Cover 3 or Cover-1/Man. Etc. Defenses got more sophisticated after the early success of the RNS in the mid/late-80s and RnS teams were less able to determine coverage based just on pre-snap motion. This led to a lot of RnS guys either abandoning the Rip/Liz motion or really paring down its usage. However, one advantage of our run-heavy approach is that it simplifies secondaries. As a result, the motion is able to give our QB some hints about coverage that he might not otherwise get in a pass-heavy offense. (2) We don't run just the RnS from under center. Our primary passing plays are still playaction passes that aren't traditional RnS plays. However, when we do run dropback passing plays under center, we do run a fair amount of RnS concepts; "Go" and "Choice" are probably most common. They're not the majority but they are significant. Our Pistol/Gun stuff has probably about the same proportion of RnS plays as under center. I've seen us run "Go" and "Choice" and "Switch" from the pistol. [/QUOTE]
