That isn't really how the read option works.  The QB is in reality a blocker not a runner.  He only keeps if defense doesn't account for him.  And teams are going to key in on Cam.

We are already running a lot of read option.  Just because Cam isn't running as much doesn't mean we aren't running it.

Plus if Online doesn't block their assignments you are going to go backwards.

 

Teams already figured how to stop it they have a defendeder that always attack the QB and LB or DE to contain the RB.

I don't really agree.  Read option is sometimes treated as an elementary school play that serves no purpose.  If it was so simplistic to stop then college would have scratched it a long time ago.  Cam went 15-1 last year with it.

We can't run the most simplistic traditional runs either.   I think the common theme is we just are a trainwreck up front right now. 

I mean people saying in 2012 vs the NYG the play should never be run again because the Giants blew up our front and ground game in prime time.  Pretty sure there was no blueprint set then until now that teams have used to shut it down.
