I dont see why we cant have 3 or 4 receivers run 4 yard stop patters on 1st down

[uihawk82]

There are teams that do this, an easy pitch and catch; one of those receivers has to be getting some cushion.

Both TEnds and a slot receiver take 3 strides downfield, turn and stop with the defender behind their back. Throw to the first one open and if they fall forward they get a 6-7 yard gain. break a tackle and it is a +10 yard gain.

back up those Lbkrs a bit, then mix in some run plays.

Kaleb can be in the slot or Moulton

Absolutely. Teams do that exact thing to Iowa all the time. No team can cover everything. Iowa, largely because of poor QB play, has generally done a poor job of scratching where it itches.

KF hasn’t thought of that yet; Hayden never did that in 1981….

It doesn’t quite work that easily when opposing teams don’t respect your deep passing game.

Everything points to opposing D’s bringing extra defenders into the box and taking away the short passing game. Iowa has to make them pay to get them to change this philosophy.

You lost me at "easy pitch and catch".
