With the absence of Edelman, and the greatly diminished role of Amendola (due to injury) it's become a necessity to move away from the short game, the crossers and rub routes that have been our bread and butter. We should be doing this anyway because other teams are becoming adept at clogging up the middle on us.
Enter the Jet sweep (or variations of the sweep play). Could this be the new bread and butter in our offense? I'd like to think so because the jet sweep is adaptable to play designs such as counters, play actions, and end arounds, and play actions off these end arounds. It takes advantage of the serious speed we have now (Cooks, Dorsett), and keeps the plays relatively simple for them, while still utilizing our OL in complex block schemes (e.g., bubble screens).
