Arch / Matty Caldwell Two-Piece Combo

[UTexas2017]

An offensive idea is to have wishbone, pony, cowboy back (hybrid FB/TE, a la Townsend - OU tore us up for a few years with Nic Anderson in this hybrid role), packages that give Arch some triple option plays to use his legs and try and keep defenses honest. Throw in some short dump passes if the defense starts to cheat up. Scheme up some straight drop backs to hit the seams on curls or go routes that only require one or two reads before you try and dump it off in the flats or throw it away. Between Wisner, Baxter, Simon, and WR jet screens, Sark can cook up some motions and wrinkles to keep teams guessing week to week.

Use Matty Caldwell in the red zone. He's expendable in the run game and can probably hit some short yardage timing routes on crosses or out routes.

Arch's only job is between the 20's to get Matty in the red zone. This takes some pressure off Arch to be the do-it-all QB. Use the Sam Houston game and the bye-week to install.

I recall the 18-Wheeler package with Swoopes and the Belldozer package with OU during the Trevor Knight era as examples of successful 2-QB strategy.
