RPOs don't require a QB run. In fact I think they very rarely include one. The QB is reading a defensive player to decide between handing to the running back and throwing it. RPO != read option.
It's true that I was leaping to an unwarranted conclusion of what type of RPO was being discussed.
Particularly out of the shot gun, its pretty tricky to figure out if a half-hearted waving of the ball at the RB is really any kind of read and option or an attempt to distract the safeties (i.e. play action). We have certainly done at least some of the latter.
If that is the request, it seems pretty much yet another call for more play action, which I don't think is particularly relevant to what ails us now.
