It's fine as long as you know how the defense is going to line up on all those 25 plays. And if play #1 is no gain or incomplete, do you still stick to play #2? What if play #1 is a sack for a loss of 10 yards. Is play #2 still the same play you planned?
1) Scripted plays, regardless of down, yardage or field position.
2) Drafting best player available, regardless of need or position.
3) The Tooth Fairy.
All three of these have one thing in common.............they don't exist.
I admit, it is fun to dive into the X's and O's and speculate about this stuff, but guys, seriously...
... we have an offensive coaching staff that rivals any in the league. We don't need to fret this stuff.
At all.
If the team executes what is called, we'll be fine.

Try to establish the run game, keep Mahomes off the field with long drives
Or..
Let Trevor be aggressive, and try to win a shoot out with the baddest man in the west.
There’s some value in the bolded, but it’s never gonna happen for a significant part of the game with Doug and Trevor. They’ve proven this year that this is and will always be a pass first offense. Not to say that ETN won’t get his on the ground and through screens and dump offs. We’re just not gonna pound them on the ground, though. Not what we do anymore.
That said, they still were able to muster an 8+ minute drive doing what they do during the last game.
That and Mahomes has proven time and again that he doesn't need a lot of time to score a lot of points.
So, I guess it's time to keep rolling and let it rip. Just try to do what you do best and try to be the team with the ball last.

Every team scripts plays. They will need to react to what the Jaguars are doing.
