I still look back on the Dickenson drive in the labour-day game where he used little misdirection plays like that all the way down the field; it had nothing to do with Dickenson, there's no reason Burris can't work a bit more of that into the offense, as the Stamps are successful whenever they use it.

I agree but mixing it up like running the ball, short passes and long passes also works for them. It is something that I did not see much against the Riders.
