So if they’re calling running plays requiring agility that my OL doesn’t have, I’m going to struggle running then ball. It got me to thinking that maybe I should sacrifice some percentage points to run a scheme that fits my OLinemen better as the OLine is so important in football. It has only been 1 quarter but this is what Marlon Mack has done in Week 5 at NE after switching our offensive scheme to West Coast Power Run (79% scheme fit and all OLinemen fit): The first play of the game was a 35 yarder after he bounced it outside. Also makes me think that maybe the issue people see with CPU teams could be due to poor scheme selection... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro

Haen’t dove into the new scheme system, but what you’re saying would be my first approach.
