[QUOTE="paulska, post: 612896, member: 557"] It seems to me that MM ran the uptempo no huddle at interesting times last season- they'd do it it right after the half or at the start of a game. Other times, they'd play clock control and blast people to death with Lacy and Starks. I do see the ability to run the uptempo no huddle as a huge plus- some teams lack the personnel and scheme to do it. The fact that it's a tool we can execute with success when it's advantageous to do so is awesome. I also see the flexibility of our team to slow it down and pound away as a plus too. Think about how the Buffalo Bills with Kelly at the helm might have been well served by being able to switch gears and ball control other ball control teams to death once they struck a strong lead (think the NY Giants). It puts teams in places where they have to switch out of their strength to catch up and play to the strengths of our defense. I think one of the overall trends in the NFL is to be masters of diversity- you see more defenders with the capacity to deliver high impact play from multiple positions (which I think is the motivation/mindset behind Randall and Rollins). You see players like Percy Harvin, Randall Cobb, Darren Sproles being such important pieces of offensive schemes. It makes it tough to game plan one way to stop your team or create advantageous matchups for your own squad. If I remember correctly, MM instituted a far quicker pace in OTA's and training camp a few seasons ago to drive the overall execution of the offense and augment our ability to get value out of no huddle scenarios. It seems like that has really paid off for us. I know early in the more no huddle more often phase last season the broadcasters made a lot out of ARod's efficiency in that mode- his stats were really dominant. We're equipped to do it all the time if we wanted to. I just think that having it as one potential problem teams have to deal with makes our offense more dangerous overall: which Packers scheme are we going to have to deal with? No huddle uptempo? Power ball control? Multiple fronts/personnel mismatches? To that end, my concern isn't about doing it more overall. It's about maintaining or improving the level of efficiency and execution we've seen develop over the past couple seasons because it's arguable that it's an important reason we rank so highly on offense. Hopefully Richard Rodgers' development and improved production out of that 4th WR spot can be fuel for that improvement... [/QUOTE]
