\t\t\tStudying Zac Robinson
\nJanuary 26th, 2026 <\/p>\n

Bucs OC Zac Robinson.<\/p>\n

Tomorrow, new Bucs offensive coordinator Zac Robinson is supposed to meet with the local pen and mic club. There, a clearer look at what makes Robinson tick should emerge.<\/p>\n

Briana Dix of Buccaneers.com had a couple of interesting nuggets about Robinson.<\/p>\n

In his two years in Atlanta, Robinson and the Dixie Chicks ranked seventh in the league in pre-snap motion. A lot of self-promoted football sophists on Twitter seems to like pre-snap motion because it can open things up for the offense.<\/p>\n

(Think of a motion offense in basketball: The offense knows where it is going; the defense really doesn\u2019t and is reacting behind an educated guess. Sometimes those educated guesses are flat wrong and \u2014 whoops! \u2014 there\u2019s an open man!)<\/p>\n

And yes, Atlanta ran the ball well. Duh. They had Bijan Robinson. The Bucs don\u2019t have Bijan Robinson. But per Dix, the Dixie Chicks led the NFL in runs out of a pistol formation. Robinson, again, per Dix, seems to think a pistol formation adds to balance.<\/p>\n

Oh, boy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In fact, Joe\u2019s not sure the Bucs have a No. 1 back. Bucky Irving tore up the league his rookie year. Last year, he might not have even been the Bucs\u2019 No. 2 back.<\/p>\n

Whether that was because perhaps Josh Grizzard wasn\u2019t as adept in scheming up a run game like Liam Coen or maybe because Bucky was hurt so much or because defenses had all offseason to develop a run defense to stop him, who really knows?<\/p>\n

But it appears Robinson, given the weapons, can cobble together a run game.<\/p>\n

So, with Rachaad White gone, might the Bucs be looking to draft a running back, perhaps on Day 2 of the draft? If nothing else give Bucky a jolt of competition in training camp?<\/p>\n
