[QUOTE="CEB, post: 911829, member: 4905"] that has been something I have noticed a lot in college football after watching CPJ's offense for so long... many offensive teams run plays that seem very SLOW developing. Defenders can get blocked and recover before the ball is out of the backfield. The offenses are reading so much that it sometimes seems like they aren't attacking. also, it seems like very few play calls get vertical as quickly as they should. There is a lot of "stretch" runs and a lot of swing passes, but nothing gets vertical in the middle of the field quickly. The closest thing in a lot of "current" offenses would be quick slant passes. Our dive read and midline used to get to the line almost as fast as DTs could get out or their stance. There doesn't seem to be anything similar in the zone read schemes. ...and I know this is a slippery slope, but some of that may be the shotgun too... perhaps? Shotgun lets QB see the field better and possibly get to the edge quicker, but it doesn't seem to get between the tackles quicker. I have seen all of the arguments that there is no difference in timing on the straight dive.... I'll concede that there is no difference just so we don't need to revisit, but it doesn't seem that anyone is running that type of play out of the gun. wonder why? [/QUOTE]
