you're right.....What would CPJ know about defending against this style of Offense?

Just poking at you Jeff.

Defending the option is easy. Interior Lineman and Inside Backers play the dive. DEs take QB. Outside Backers and Corners take the pitch. Safeties are running the alley QB to the pitch.
There are of course other ways to play it but that was the way I was taught. Everyone has an option assignment every play.

It's when someone misses their assignment that you get gashed. I'm still on the fence on this pick.
