The key moment in that video is Kyle stating for the whole world to hear the read option works because the QB is a running threat. Couldn't even begin to count how many posts here tried to argue against that simple fact all last season, hopefully it can be put to bed now and forever.

The question is how much do they plan to use RG as a runner. Given his already terrible injury history, the new NFL rules about running QBs and the way all defenses will target him I think still using the read option is beyond irresponsible.

It's really concerning how Kyle admitted he relied on RG as a runner to minimize blitzes and pressure. Hopefully pass protection and scheme are improved this season, so we have a "sustainable offense" if you will.

Of course the read option works because of the threat of the QB running. Who argued against that?

It's been said all offseason but RGIII holds his health in his own hands for the most part. Get down or get out of bounds should be all that's going through his head for the rest of his career once he leaves the pocket.

Could this statement be used to characterize that the injuries did not happen to Robert on "design run plays", but rather improvisation on Robert's part?

For all the read option drama, it's interesting to note we only ran it on average 8 times per game. It's not the basis of this offense.

Don't confuse "running threat" with "running QB"

So what you are saying is that you want Jared Allen, JPP, and DeMarcus Ware to be able to just rush without worrying about anything else and having RG3 take off running on a scramble all the time?

I thought you were concerned with his health?

RG3 would not have been injured once the entire year if he had just ran out of bounds twice (Atlanta and Baltimore). Its on RG3 to get down or out of bounds. If he doesnt do that, it does not matter what scheme we run, he will get injured. But then again, thats true for any QB.

Of course the option works b/c the QB is a running threat. Please show me any post that asserted that the threat of the QB running was unimportant to or not an essential element of the RO.

Running the RO 10 times threatens a QB run each and every time even if he only keeps it once.

I would suggest, at this point, in any given game it is unnecessary for RGIII to keep it even once for the him to be a threat on each play given how dangerous he has shown himself to be as a runner.
