Let’s talk Ippolito. He came in as a linebacker and is now playing fullback. Does this mean:
1. That Whitt is fundamentally ok with defensive players moving to the offense where it makes sense? WHAT.
2. While the previous 4 games were rough, that we finally have an OC that sees an opportunity and exploits it by playing to people’s stengths?
3. That we have an OC with a system in place, but is also flexible enough to deviate from it slightly to win games based on personnel? I would never have thought we’d see a full back this year.
4. That we’re willing to throw to anyone outside of Carrington that can catch.
Or, does this mean:
1. It’s an edge case, maybe if Whitt allows another player to two to go to the offensive side, then let’s talk.
2. We just need a blocker because Shyne is hurt, run DHC is too small and our tight ends aren’t that great.
3. Dude is injury prone and out of shape, so we’ll throw him in as a full back if we have to, 5 plays a game.
4. It’s garbage time, chalk it up to an open player.
Keep me honest.
Either way, let’s see more of the jumbo package. Size is now one of our strengths.
