I'm impressed with the o-line diversity so far. Some zone blocking, some duo, etc. We did this a couple times this season but it's been very spotty overall. Formations look better. No more tight formations that give away runs.

And like I said...diversity with the pass game too. St Brown being bracketed/doubled? Go to Jamo. Go to Raymond. Go to LaPorta. Gibbs. It's no longer oh shyt St Brown is covered....check down into a screen. Good mixture of short routes with the longer stuff. I'm sure Morton will call plays again this season and when he does, he needs to learn from this. You need more answers, you can't just spam the same one no matter what.

This is the second out of three OCs that Campbell has taken play calling duties from. I wonder if he eventually just goes the Reid/McVay/Shanny route and just sticks with calling the plays going forward.
