Yea, my guess is he's talking about teams who run RPO's with an excellent QB who can make great reads and good throws.

As has been mentioned over and over, Alabama doesn't struggle with "the no huddle". Alabama struggles with great QBs running the no huddle (as does almost everyone else).

If a QB is locked in and making great reads and throws with the RPO system, the only way to stop it is to get super quick pressure and force quick decisions. We did that with Watson for a half, but as our offense stalled and the defense got a little bit tired, he had just enough time and he killed us.
