Me either. Wilkerson could block, but I don't think I have seen him catch a pass yet. Maybe Mc Caskill? but why use him in a blocking role? You got me there.

Fauria or Antonio, maybe?
a lead blocker in the run game worked in what, the 60s? This thread feels like huskermax.

It worked against TCU
I think a 2 back base set is as silly as you're saying. But I think having a TE able to motion from slot to either Y for max protect or to H for lead blocking would help a ton. I just don't know if we have anyone who can do all that well enough to create matchup advantages.
When I think of two back in modern football I think of the plays in the link below:

Great opportunity to get Edwards in motion and force the D to respect his speed and you have another RB you can use off of the RPO if the box opens up. Obviously not every play type stuff.
A deep dive into Mike McDaniel’s offensive scheme: wide zone RPOs – Five Reasons Sports Network
New Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel was one of the architects behind a San Francisco 49ers rushing offense that ranked in the upper half of the NFL in rushing yards per game in four of his five seasons as San Francisco’s run game coordinator (2017-2020) and offensive coordinator (2021)...

This. Fauria's just not a great blocker and I don't think Antonio and Harrison can hold their own inside the tackles. At this point if I were Lewis, I'd have ripped BOB a new one behind closed doors and be sticking my boot up the OLine's a$$ every snap this week. That and experimenting with some attached TE sets and new backs to see if anything produces a spark.

WTF?
Great point, Coach Lewis is clearly on Allbuffs looking for inspiration.
The kool aid fog will take time to lift.
I’m not sure we have time to even use receivers if they are spread too wide.
I’m still thinking the answer is super quick / timing routes / pop passes (not screen passes). 3.5 yards each. Eat the **** out of the clock
Now I find that I'm curious what the asterisks represent.

Two girls no cup?
Antonio looked great boxing out the DB on slants but they only seemed to run it a couple of times.
Antonio and Travis Jay look more like TE's than any other player we have
Big Body, not the fastest, with decent hands.
They did run slants/mesh/crossing type of route quite a few times, and most of the time, there were someone open, shedeur just didn't have anytime to throw the ball. That's how bad our OL is.
Well, that's encouraging.
At least they know what to fix....everything!

Ten more lbs, and if feel comfortable with Harrison doing it.

Harrison definitely has the look of a modern TE. He's 230 so about 10 lbs away from really cementing his conversion.

Also, we have to start using the middle of the field on short routes. There were multiple replay last week from behind the offense, where there wasn't a single receiver or defender in the middle of the field.
We're using the perimeter almost exclusively and defenses know it. We ran a drag and a slant with Antonio and both picked good yardage.

Exactly! That’s the basis of a couple of my previous posts.
Which Oregon defense exploited when they decided to bull rush the guards and center while playing wide with the edges.
Maybe we need to look at wider splits to create natural gaps like Leach used to do with his offense? Such a major adjustment 1/3 into the season, but something has to be done to create throwing lanes & opportunity to step up in the pocket.
