Chiefs KC Offense: A little RPO?

Aspengc8 · 10-27-2016, 01:31 PM

First, a great read on the run-pass offense: http://blog.xowizard.com/run-pass-op...he-rpo-basics/

Something I have been noticing lately, and I'm not entirely sure if its a 'true' RPO, is they have been running a lot of power out of trips closed, with what looks like a bubble read. I pointed this out in the last A22 offense post, and Sorter alluded to it may being a built in fake. Quite possibly is, but its interesting none the less as KC is racking up a lot of ground yardage with it.

Alley defender stay out wide and freezes, Alex gives to Ware for a nice gain.

again in trips closed, alley defender stays wide. he actually attacks the bubble and is cut block. Alex gives to Ware again for a nice gain.

Here is the alley defender down in the box, with a 1 high look. Still only technically 6 in the box, but the alignment puts them in position to stop Zone read (similar result as defending with scrape/exchange?). KC aligning in the Oregon "double stack". Zone read freezes the alley player and Alex throws the bubble to DT right away.

I am by no means an expert at this stuff. Trying to spark some more X's and O's conversations. These are probably not even true RPO, but want to hear what you guys think.
