Browns putting in zone read

The zone read is just another aspect the opposing defense will have to plan for. Do not compare it to the Tebow era either, JM is a better passer then him, so the Defense wont just load the box up.

and Tebow is a better (more sturdy for sure) runner

strong runner for sure, but not faster. The read option is a gimmic play and works well in college. We wont be doing it all the time. Its just another element for the defense to plan for. The Shannahan offense is a run first one, and we have work horses for that.

Well, I'm not too concerned about speed. No one is expecting their QB to be a homerun hitter. The read is a gimmick in the NFL that is gaining traction, it is the base of many college offenses though.

 

I know we aren't going to be doing it all the time, but JF isn't a bug dude. One wrong read or one good play by a defender and he's getting laid out. We'll probably get to see it soon enough though.

Hey he can either handle the game or not. All the JFF fantatics act like his size is a non issue and think he is indestructible. I guess we will find out.

 

 

It was a non issue for Fran Tarkenton and Drew Brees
