Tush push

[btowngopher]

Can we go back to running this on short yardage spots? We’ve done it in the past with good success, we’ve been terrible this year converting these.

We’d be the first to try the tush push with the QB not under center. That would be interesting.

Our OL is getting pushed back on runs up the middle… we just can’t.

The would be more of a "tush toss" methinks...

Doesn’t have to be a push just go under center: sneak, fb dive, hb dive. Stop going out of shotgun. If you’re not getting hit it in the backfield we have a bad snap as we saw both today.

Exactly

When I saw shotgun on a fourth and inches, I was like “this doesn’t end well”. If I know that from row 19, why is it a mystery for Gopher coaching?

I'd be tempted to direct snap to LeCaptain and have him bull across the line.

A healthy Darius Taylor solves some of these problems.

Could we as a society go back to calling it QB sneak?
