You watch these highlight reels of quarterbacks running the zone read and the RPO and I just shake my head. That is not the option. That is just a handoff with extra steps. I remember sitting in Legion Field in the early 80s watching us run the wishbone under Coach Bryant. We had three backs in the backfield and the defense had to account for every single one of them on every snap. No pasing game to speak of half the time but it did not matter because we would just hammer it down your throat...
