It is about 2% down from last year. 

So whatever it was you thought you saw, you didn't see that. 

Personally - I'm lobbying for using it more but guessing we don't because of the bad execution -  
Plays coming in late, or offense being slow to get set at the line at time, that certainly doesn't help.

The more advanced offenses do multple motions because they get to the line early.  Like I said.  

And maybe I'm wrong with how much more single motion we do now compared to the past.  But it looked to me that we did much more single motion Sunday that I've noticed in prior weeks.  Mainly because Trevor got the call in and brought the team to the line earlier than he has been doing.

All that to say, our offense is basic compared to the more advanced offenses that are able to come up to the line with 20 seconds left on the play clock.  Those teams run multiple motions pre-snap.  Execution is a two way street, to paraphrase the HC that loves to drive players under the bus.  Calling plays early enough for the team to come up to the line with 20 seconds is execution.  Doug's staff seems to lack that type of execution.  But that can be a discussion for another day.

I hope what you're lobbying for, which many here have been saying since last year, will come to fruition.  I'm just happy that you are beginning to come around.

Cheers!

I'm not coming around to any of your gibberish, I'm just stating simple stats and a few opinions. 

You're also trying to redefine what the word execution means in football here and you're just wrong. 
Execution traditionally refers to what the players execute on the field. It doesn't refer to coaching or getting plays to the QB. 

Please stop trying to make every single damned post into some bashing of this offensive coaching staff. It is so tiresome. 

Getting plays in on time was not a problem Sunday. Tons of snaps with 12-19 seconds on the play clock when I rewatched. 
Hopefully they've gotten past that issue for good this year. 

I doubt that has much effect on the staff deciding to use motion more often, because it is the inability of the players to execute motion without penalties or mistimed positioning that are the most likely reason it is not being used more.
