Why can't the RB go under center for the play?

Is their a Rb able to take a QB snap, that you trust?? Its one of things that even most college QBs have to learn entering the NFL..

I just got a new idea- Young in shotgun, hike, Derrick brown tosses him over the LOS. 103% success rate guaranteed..

Yeah if they know they are taking the ball and just falling forward the snap shouldn't be too bad.  QBs get caught trying to read the defense while taking the snap which can be difficult.  

Anther idea is Young gets a piggyback ride on Bozeman for the yard!

Pretty much. The play is “can your center push a yard” doesn’t really matter who takes the snap.

The problem with this is you will then be asking your RB to do something he isn't used to doing and that is taking a snap under center.

There was a good bit of talk about this pre-draft and one of the things most people were assumed to understand that's a play we would not be seeing much if at all. I mean honestly I didn't want to see us putting either of the QB's we were considering at 1 in harms way after what happened to Cam. But Bryce Young? That's a big negatory. And with the state of our offense and our lack of power back you have to wonder what this staff is and was thinking when they selected him and figured a backfield of Sanders and Chuba was perfecto. We know for sure Reich is big on the QB sneak in his playbook. I guess we'll see if they get it figured out.

    • I agree. I’d make the move because I don’t see us sniffing the playoffs and let’s be honest TMac, Legette and Coker better be our top 3 future. If they aren’t and we need Thielen to replace one of them, then we need to draft yet another 1st round WR, SMH. Suffice it to say, Thielen isn’t good enough to get us into the playoffs so let’s get the young guys starting so we know if they aren’t good enough. We still have so many assumptions about whether players are who we need them to be that holding onto Thielen for 3-7 wins isn’t worth passing on a mid round pick (3rd to 5th/swaps). We’ve had some success with later round picks/UDFAs and need depth.
    • If you move Thielen I think you almost have to keep Renfrow. You need some sort of veteran presence in the locker room and Renfrow would be good insurance in the slot. I'm sure we have Coker penciled in to start there but you also have to be keeping Coker in the back of your head as XL insurance on the outside if he doesn't step up. If he flounders again, I wouldn't wait too awfully long to replace him with Coker outside and slide Renfrow into the slot and keep it moving. 
    • Playing the same role is different than having the same style.  Cam Newton and Drew Brees both played QB but arent the same type in any way.
