Our receivers and offense over the past few seasons have been slowed down by "physical" and "sticky" corners. Aka corners that are holding that the refs aren't / can't call every play. We saw it all the time with Joey Porter Jr. Notre Dame did it this year and last year. Michigan has done it. Play a zone with press corners to cover the deep ball and slow our receivers down.

So what can we do to help our best players in Marv and Egbuka get free releases? Well maybe more pre-snap motion like the Dolphins? Tyreek Hill is the extreme example given he is a once in a lifetime type player, but moving a guy like Egbuka around like this pre-snap might open up a lot, not just with DBs, but also LBs which I have read could open up running lanes.

Idk, just random thoughts on a Monday going into the Bye week. Posted a link below on examples which most have already probably seen but just got me thinking.
