Football is a game which is constantly evolving and changing. Whether it was the introduction to the forward pass, the shotgun offense, the Wildcat formation or the newest buzzword in football circles “RPOs”.
For those who don’t know, RPO stands for Run-Pass-Option, and this is a unique twist on how an offense will run their offense from the line of scrimmage. On any given play, the quarterback will have a choice between a run and pass play, but will choose between the two...sometimes it is a split-second decision.
Everyone has to be prepared, and everyone has to be on time for this style of offense to work, and for the Pittsburgh Steelers and Ben Roethlisberger — it is still new.
