Bill O’Brien has done a great job at going back to what worked in the past, and what he needed to do to improve the offense. The inside run-inside run-shotgun throwing offense doesn’t work. He went back to do doing what worked last year in week four. And he’s also done things like chip on the outside to help the tackles, play better younger players in the Jordan rookies, run some nice route combinations to open up DeAndre Hopkins, utilize play action, run more boot legs, and take shots downfield…well except for in this game.
The last thing missing from this offense is using Deshaun Watson as a runner.
