Hello folks the option rely's on a QB who CAN run so the defense does not key on just the RB and WR. RG1 can not run. Proven by his -7 rushing yrds.

P.S. I'll take my chicken dinner.

The quarterback also has to be able to pass or the defense will stack the box and focus exclusively on stopping the run. No threat of passing would destroy our offense. Part of the reason it works so well with RG3 is because defenses are just as scared of his golden arm as they are of his golden legs.

Rex Grossman can pass, but not run. Pat White can run, but not pass. Like I said before, run-first quarterbacks can't compete in the NFL. An offense run by Grossman would operate much better than one run by White. No one wants either Grossman or White to get extensive playing time during the regular season. But if it came to that, I would want definitely want Grossman over White.
