I'd like to see it, at least some times. Not all the time. Just to **** someone in the ass on a drive.

If Reid were to hire me as a strategic consultant, which he would never do because ****ing moron, but if he did, here's what I'd suggest.

Run the first drive as you normally would hopefully it ends in 7. Rape away.

Next drive, line up in the I and turn the dial to **** you. If they can't stop it jam it down their throat and go get your 7. If they are filling gaps then unleash Mahomes on PA.

Then after that, you can work in some plays depending on effectiveness.

But if you make them gameplan for both, that will mean less time on the shit you want to run. The matchups you can exploit. All of it. And if they roll you out of it, hat tip, plus you know what they're going to do if you need to run to close the game.

I think Tim Grunhardt is a ****ing idiot and I can't stand him. But he once said something EXTREMELY insightful: The most valuable commodity in the NFL is time.

You only get so much practice time. There just aren't enough hours for that sort of radical shift in approach, IMO. You don't have the practice time for 2 completely different installs.

But I don't see how that would interfere with a shift from a zone scheme to a gap scheme over the course of an off-season.

But like you said - guy didn't ask me. I just don't have a good answer for it - Andy is a DAMN smart guy and obviously knows more about football than idea. Which makes it all the stranger that this appears as self-evident to me as it does.

If I think it's this obvious and yet Andy Reid isn't doing it, it must be because I'm reeruned because I know he isn't.

But try as I might, I can't figure it out.

He's my favorite guy to listen to when it comes to the Chiefs.
