I see a bunch of option plays being utilized and I doubt that we will run it as much as RGIII did. They did more option running than anything.
If they run a screen while executing a run play and have Smith key on the main defensive player (most times the DE or OLB on whichever side you are executing) and decide which play will gain more yards, it will keep Smith from hitting the turf too frequently.
We will have to run Smith occasionally to keep the defense honest, but you can run the pistol option without running your QB too frequently.
