I like the following elements of the offense that I think are repeatable (or get better) this year:
1. The delayed handoff worked extremely well, when their backs are turned we were able to knock off some big chunks on the ground. It's just a couple seconds but man it was pretty.
2. Chris Evans hit a lot of holes that Smith wouldn't have gotten to, we should see a lot more of that. Even Higdon should be an upgrade on hitting the hole.
3. The screen game can be used with great success, we had a few really nice screens last year.
4. I was really impressed with how the receiver's routes spreads them out across the field. Really impressed. I didn't see many highlights with multiple receiver's occupying the same space.
5. The pass pro was more than adequate but Speight really has a knack for side stepping the rush. Huge.
6. I'm not sure I saw a single TE middle screen i....seems like a play we'd run, we have the personnel that's for sure.
7. FB dive!
8. lots of well drawn crossing routes...especially off play action.
***In fairness to Deveon, he was very hard to bring down. I think at some point we'll be longing for a back that can carry the pack to the chains. Don't know that guy is on the team this year?
