I believe it has a somewhat traditional base but receivers are given multiple route tree options. This allows for QB's to be very improvisational depending on the coverage the QB sees. So the X and Z will come out of each play with a few route options, the QB motions and moves players around. This is why the Jags may have had serious interest in Chip Kelly since Kelly's offense had similar set ups on passing plays. Kelly emphasizes fast-paced offense in similar ways to the Coryell scheme. Much Like the Coryell, Kelly's offense relied on stretching out the defense and allowing Foles to make less accurate throws, disguising his weaknesses as a thrower. These are some big reasons why DeSean Jackson, Jeremy Maclin and Brent Celek did really well in his offense before Kelly got rid of all the Eagles talent. You'll see the fast pace, motions and utilizing players more as athletes than traditional position players. (I.E. RB's run, WR's catch, TE's Block). The offense focuses on the vertical spread, incorporates a lot of timing and includes more of a straight forward power running game. 

 

Meaning there may be some complexity on routes, with a lot of room for Blakes creativity with option runs, screens, reverses but expect simplicity, small yardage plays and avoids tight windows that Blake struggles with. The entire design works when Bortles can play like a conservative west coast QB like Alex smith, but with bigger passing windows. Bortles game relies on the deep threat to keep the windows larger for Bortles. Bortles isn't going to win games with tight spirals, he wins on improvisation and broken coverage. Bortles can be successful if he has free time to let the recievers break apart the defense. This is also why developing a stronger ground rushing is paramount to his success. The Jaguars were one-dimensional, teams game planned to stop the recievers from creating any large gaps for Borltes. 

 

Some concerns, The offense uses an H-back more than traditional tight ends and does emphasize the Tight End as a receiver more than a blocker. I really don't know if Thomas and Koyak fit this role. I just can't imagine Thomas accumulating the reception targets that the Coryell offense requires.

 

The offense is rally risky. You cannot be one-dimensional or play poorly on the o-line. Borltes is highly inconsistent when things are going wrong. this offense can get thrown off and completely derailed on one or two plays, killing drives because QB's can get exposes to sacks and extended time for holding calls due to the high usage of deeper pass plays and complex route assignments. 

 

The reason this offense was so successful with Warner, Bruce and Holt was that you had some of the most disciplined guys participating. Bruce and Holt were dedicated and unselfish players and that's really the key to their greatness.

 

I think it's a great offense for Bortles because Borltes will never be a tight window, accurate thrower. He can be successful if Robinson and Hurns can consistently stretch the field and keep the windows larger.
