Whenever Seals hands it off to the running back and then turns and runs the opposite direction, that’s not fooling anyone.

The running back is swarmed by defenders and Seals is running off in the other direction by himself with no defenders anywhere around him.

Maybe if he could do a better job of faking the handoff and selling the handoff to the running back, then hiding the ball in his own arms, then he could take off for a long gain on that.

Never. Even when he's wide open to run. It's not a read option, it's a fake read option. We are trying to out smart the D ;)
