What happened to the 3WR, 1RB set?

[blackthought]

What happened to it, I think the Dolphins can do alot of damage using that to get short passes off, in an effort to negate any pass rush, considering our line, but they haven't used it as much. Boston to one side, preferably TE side to take away any LB from sliding over and laying a hit. The quick slant will always be there. Ricky has proven this preseason that he still is capable of bouncing runs to the outside and making a man miss. Listen, talent wise this is one of the best formations we've got, What do you all think?

We're going to be doing plenty of 3 WR sets (I hope)...actually with our skill position talent we can run pretty much anything and not show much weakness (Except at QB probably) We have 5 pretty good receivers, a badass tight end, two badass runningbacks, a decent fullback, and a good blocking #2 tight end.

Talent wise I'd go a two WR set with any combo of Chambers Booker and Boston takin the two WR sets, Ronnie and Ricky in the backfield, and McMike obviously at TE. Take out a back and put in another receiver and they're both pretty damn dangerous.

dont forget we really haven't showed our hand in preseason yet... theres plenty of plays we probably haven't seen yet and formations used that we haven't used in the preseason games...

I wouldnt mind RW(when he comes back)and RB out in the slot.Our RB's might have more speed then our WR's to stretch the defense even more.

I, like the others, believe they are going to use it plenty. I would be curious to see a split backfield with Brown and Williams.

I'm pretty sure they want to get McMichael on the field as much as possible...The 3 WR sets will come and don't be surprised to see McMichael as the 3rd receiver in those sets...And even a RB on occasion in motion from the backfield...We saw some of that in the Tampa game.

Ooops!...I see what you're saying after I read it again...Yep...We could be dangerous with Chambers, Booker, Boston, and McMichael in the same formation with 1 back...I think it's worth noting that Chambers is a great blocking WR...I'm not sure how well Booker and Boston are at blocking but having big WR's who can block would enable us to run the ball effectively in that set as well.
