Part of me actually wonders if the Pistol is a bad offense

for what Tenuta runs. That running back starts even further back in the backfield. Considering all the blitzes that Tenuta dials up, and his scheme in general, I just wonder if there are going to be a lot of plays for negative yardage.

The nature of that offense seems like disruption would hurt it more than other offenses since the back has an extra 2 yards or so behind the line of scrimmage.
