Turf Show Times on Stetson Bennett
From the article
Bennett is a shotgun QB In Shotgun: 66% of the time Play Action/Under Center: 33% of the time... Stafford isn't just faking a handoff and rolling to his right for a one-read dump-off to the tight end in the flat. He's peering down the field 30 yards for Puka Nacua.
STACKED’s take
Bennett's play-action design is simplistic; he runs rollouts to open receivers, not complex reads.
Bennett operates almost exclusively out of shotgun (66% of snaps) and play-action (33%), with a 59% completion rate and 5.5 yards per attempt from shotgun and 5.6 yards per attempt on play-action. However, his play-action design is fundamentally limited: he's not reading the defense or progressing through options like Matthew Stafford does. Instead, Bennett runs designed rollouts with wide-open tight ends/receivers at the line of scrimmage—easy throws for any NFL quarterback. When asked to execute a different type of play-action (deep shot to Scott), he almost ran into the running back and overthrew the receiver. The source notes that Bennett's offense works "as long as you can just tell Stetson Bennett what to do before every play and then that guy is wide open."
