Without reading, based on what I saw it is a lot of zone runs, which is what Jacobs excels at and is easier on the offensive line.
More empty set spread formations.
Countering off of things that McDaniels never countered off of, like everytime Meyers lined up in line they knew he was coming to crack block and they would attack Jacobs, so Hardegree called the sweep to Meyers which resulted in a 17 yarf TD run (I stole that one from TDL LOL)
Interesting and creative formations like Meyers lined up at FB
More play action, especially play action off of the same exact looks they already showed running the ball.
It’s only been one game, but Hardegree actually looks like he pays attention to what defenses are seeing on film and counters against it, as well as gameplanning specifically for teams. I can’t remember the last time the Raiders had a playcaller like that.
People might think it’s just that teams don’t know his tendencies yet, but it looks like he actually knows what he’s doing.
I really want to see Bo agaisnt an elite defense. Aidan will no doubt struggle agaisnt better schemes, but if the offense looks decent agaisnt the better teams the raiders will have a tough decision to make this offseason.
