Not that any offense can rely on end arounds, plays designed to go to backside, drag pass plays when the action is to one side with a throw back in the opposite direction, etc but we need to run these plays, other than when it is obvious we're going to run one, at least as often as we run fake punts.
This hurts in short yardage plays, which means it kills us in the red zone.
