I want jackrabbits. You give me Toney, Hardman and MVS out on that field with Kelce and this offense will hum like we haven't ever seen.
You can only cover so much grass, fellas. The limiting factor that has historically existed on this approach was the QB, but our QB can challenge every square inch of turf.
So give him targets that can get to them.

The 49ers game was a good case study on this and I’d argue that it was our best offensive game of the season.
The pure speed of Hardman and MVS opened everything up. But with cover 2 you already have 2 guys taking the reigns off the deep ball. Then 2 more usually on Kelce.
Andy schemed Juju open several times that game and the speed/Kelce matchup’s clearly had Juju 1v1 and he won. A lot.
Andy even got him matched up on a LB multiple times due to this and it killed SF’s defense. We also did this with Sammy Watkins with great success.
