Nah unless they change the hash placement to mirror NFL it’ll be plenty sustainable as long as we have a competent QB that knows how to make the thing work as it is designed like Hooker could. Milton was vastly inferior to Hooker at making our offensive engine churn like we needed him to, however I have a very strong feeling that Nico could not be a more perfect fit for our unique system of offense these next two/three seasons.

Only thing I don’t like about our system is how important it is for us to not go 3-out. As fast as we play, a 3 and out doesn’t afford our defense enough time to even sit down for a min and catch their breath. Fortunately though our defense will finally be 2/3 deep across the board next year and we typically get a first down or two at the very least most drives anyways.

And that won't change. 3 and outs and kicking field goals instead of scoring TDs in the red zone is the death of what type of HUNH spread you are running. The barn tried it years ago under the Gus Bus and they ran into the same problems. Their defense was gassed in the 4th quarter.
