The offense should NEVER be dictated by the defense. They are the ones that start the play. They are the ones that dictate the response. They are the ones that should control the game. If the defense reacts to what they're doing, they should be able to adjust and force the defense to try something else.
If you come out aggressive, with the mindset to score early and often, there's no need for this ridiculous "feeling out" process and less of a chance you have to rally and score more at the end of the game to catch up or take the lead.
Do you think Sam Wyche was worried about feeling out the defense when he incorporated the hurry up or the sugar huddle? No. He was dictating the flow of the game by forcing the defense to adjust to everything they were doing.
Zac is too passive in moments of the game where he does not NEED to be passive. Adjusting your offense to respond to what the defense is doing is the most bass ackwards way for an offense to operate.
As an offense, you dictate. When the defense adjusts, you react and force them to have to try something else.
