Remember run Ricky run? More like run Skylar run am I right?

We know that Skylar Thompson has some wheels. They aren’t Justin Fields-type wheels but the guy can get out on the perimeter and take the occasional corner when he needs to.

Now, I think we all can envision Skylar picking up a key 3rd down early only for it to be coming back due to a holding call, but I still want Thompson to use his legs as often as he needs to.

This offense led by Skylar Thompson which will probably be anchored by a couple of tackles that will have a tough time making the XFL needs to somehow possess the ball for as long as it can. Running the ball(more foreshadowing) needs to be the chief approach for McDaniel. But, running the ball with the quarterback needs to be in play as well.

I don’t even care if they run some design runs with Thompson even though I’m sure Skylar would get hurt if that happened due to the whole curse over the franchise thing. Anything to keep the ball out of Buffalo’s hands is what needs to be attempted.
