Percy Harvin read option...

[jrod13206]

So this is my first post and I'm gonna take a swing at it.

So I was going over Percy Harvin's college highlights and noticed that the carries that he did have were off of the read option and he looked explosive hiting the holes. Now imagine him in there for lynch on the read option and sucking the safety way up (because defences will game plan to stop him) opening up the WO's for read option pass... and if the safety stays back percy breaking them off for 8-12 yards every time. I remember seeing a stat last year of Marshawn having like 7 yards a carry on read option runs last year, imagine an even more explosive Percy getting in on the action. And it doesn't change the offence at all, just plug in Percy and let him do his thing. Excited as heck for the Harvin affect. :179422:

Yeah, it really just comes down to finding ways to getting him his touches and letting him do his thing. Its a fine line tho, as he's not a big guy, so you gotta be cognizant that he was plays reckless(as far as his body size goes). But yes, read options, counters, reverses, fly sweeps, screens, slot work, deep work, etc. The dude is just crazy talented.

Imagine what just faking this could open up down field.

Hopefully we'll see something new that teams haven't seen yet. Bevel should have a plan of attack based on what he knows from their days together in Minnesota.

Going to show the whole package Monday I think...if for no other reason than to FREAK out the 49ers!!!

 

[Hawks46]

Yea, pull out all the stops on the Saints, then run the regular offense vs. the 49ers. Make em waste all that time on the RO. I'm down.

I'm very interested to see how they use Harvin Monday. I doubt they want to let everyone see all the bells and whistles but they'll start to get him in some exotic looks I'm sure.

Harvin isn't a mystery.... theres years of tape on him... Are you serious?

Harvin is coming off a major surgery, and there is still a mystery to how we will use him. Yes there are tapes on him, but they have to go back and watch them all, and prepare how we could *potentially* use him.

All in all, we werent a cakewalk to prepare for before harvin, and now add to that harvin l, who is a nightmare by himself. The saints DC had way, waaaaaaay more on his plate in getting his guys just somewhat prepared.

Years of tape?

Keep in mind, we have 24 & 3. That opens up more options for 11.

Years of tape won't include the ability to work with 3 very viable running threats.

please be quiet - this is called playoff strategy

This is a great point and further more when was the last time Harvin has an accurate passer throwing to him. My guess is you won't find a whole bunch of tape on that. None from college and maybe half a season with Brett Favre while with the Vikes? I'm sure we can come up with some thing that would freak out opposing DC's.
Considering the recent news involving the legion of bong we may need our offense to shift up and win some shootouts so we will need Harvin in the kitchen sink.

I think you pull out the bells and whistles for the Saints and just get that one in the books. Niners too. The rest of the season is when you put the BW into hibernation until the playoffs. I'm sure they'll be working some bad-ass stuff up before the playoffs.

 

[joeseahawks]

We might need every TD we can get on Monday.

Triple option sweep from the pistol. Sexy.
