And that is why this team is incredibly dangerous moving forward. There’s no defense for that.

The 2007 Mizzou football team was hilarious in that they seemed just as likely to pick up a 3rd and 20 as they were 3rd and 4. It just didn't matter - they had so many downfield concepts put together anyway that either they executed and converted or they didn't and failed; nothing the defense seemed to do mattered.
This offense feels like that when it's in sync. On 2nd and 8 I really don't care if they drop back because even if they get sacked and it's 3rd and 16, well they have damn near as many ideas for dealing with that as they do 3rd and 4.
Either they'll execute and convert or they won't. The defense is just kinda along for the ride.
