I think regular they can scheme to make the OL more productive.
I think for the purposes of evaluation there was an emphasis on one-v-one blocking at the point and getting to the second level.
I think in a regular season game they can put greater emphasis on combination/double team blocks to drive the DL off the line then peel to get to the second level.

Also, I think there will/should be much more diversity to the run game then outside stretch zone right.

Love how Griffin played, though. The kid looks more and more the real deal we're been hoping for. 'Course Rex and Beck looked good in preseason last year too. But RGIII played much better Thursday than they had last season.
I don't agree but I get your point.
Griffin certainly looked poised.
But he was very well managed with the playcalling and had clearly defined reads as result was playing simple pitch and catch.
Griffin also didn't face many blitz looks nor did he throw a high volume of passes.
But, yes I like the way Griffin looked, just would have liked to see him get more work.

Looking forward to seeing them open up the offense, as they move forward. Running more rollouts and options like they have in practice. As long as they don't expose Griffin too much. I'm really worried an uncovered DE is going to take him out.
I'm worried about that too, not so much the roll-outs but the zone-read stuff.
At some point in preseason you would think they have to test their new concepts against a live defense.
