He is definitely trying to more ZW things. Keep the play alive while looking

To throw. There is a number of tines when it looks wide open for easy yards and he dodges back in to traffic instead of taking the gifted yards. But alas, maybe when things get tough we will see more running in the coming weeks.

I’ve thought about this a bit….Not rocket science but Jaren’s refusal to take off and run has impacted our offense.

Jaren staying healthy has helped our offense.

He got popped standing in the pocket last game. It’s football. He’s a dual threat with top end speed. We need to use his

We’ve been a number of QB draws a game. He runs mostly 5-7 times a game already

Maybe the fact that he is not hurt and still playing is an attended consequence

I don't know; his 12-1 INT Ratio is a pretty good threat

Me too. We didn’t need it there. But we will against Notre Dame, Arkansas, Boise.

I prefer him running and picking up yards when something breaks down, not a designed run

100%. He’s not doing that. He’s had huge wide open lanes every game. Hoping he starts to take the easy 10-20 yards on

Hurt our offense? The oline not opening up holes until the third quarter is

That has for sure as well. Not an either or scenario.

I think ARod does like an RPO style offense and Jaren just doesn't like to run...

Dude. Jaren is 2nd on the team for rushing attempts. He was clearly part

Opposing teams have very frequently loaded the box and/or used a spy. Tough for the QB to run in those circumstances.

Well said. This nails my thoughts. As I think about it more, I guess I’m fine with him never running against sucky teams

I fully anticipate him to keep the ball on the zone read more the next two games

Need a healthy, not banged up, and passing Jaren. He will run one back eventuall
