    I should of been more specific, I doubt Mariota will be more than 1-2 designed QB runs a game. McNulty (QB Coach) said he'll get a couple designed run plays a game, but will be more like how Seattle does it with Russell Wilson. He gets a couple designed carries a game, but ultimately want to keep him healthy.

    With this OL, Mariota will probably be scrambling for his life, probably goes for 700+ rushing yards this year.

    I really don't understand that article. Are the Titans really trying to emulate another team when they're simply adapting their playbook to better fit their #2 overall pick? All spread offenses aren't the same either. It's okay to have power guys in a spread like Cobb and Fowler, the main trait you look for is versatility in players. Cobb and Fowler can both do a few different things so I don't see 40 times being as important as discussed.

    A read option isn't a designed QB run.

    You are a UT fan, right? Then you watched Worley run this (badly) for two years.

    If you get blown up on a read option, you read the play wrong.

    Didn't run it much? How many times did Wilson carry it? Double or triple it and that's probably how many times they ran the zone read.

    First off, emulating the offense, so why are you talking about defense and team wins? None of Dalton, Tanny or Foles looks like Mariota running the zone read so they are bad comparisons other than what the Eagles and Seattle do because this zone read comes from Chip's offense (as did Mariota) and Seattle runs it as well as anyone with the combo of mobile QB and power rb...which to me looks like what we'd like to emulate. Seattle with better wr's!!!
