A shotgun 2 RB offense is a gimmick. How many teams run this consistently? It's a gimmick because almost no offensive coach would do it. Even Payton went from using Bush as a gimmick to getting down to basics--and he's as good of an offensive mind as you'll find. A team averages about 30 carries a game. You give Spiller 20, you give a power back 5 (change of pace). How many does that leave for Charles? You're talking about an offense that would limit your ONLY playmaker to less than 10 carries? Really?
And I don't care about forming an offense Cassel is comfortable with. He needs to prove he can run in a pro offense or he doesn't belong as a starter.
