That BR Report article said that three of the last four NC ran the spread (2010 article). Well that isn't what it is now as the last three out of four now ran the Pro offense. LOL Roll Tide Roll - Back to Back
No, it really doesn't, but, when the pros spread the field it's more or less the way we do it. They don't do it by hiring small, fast OL and option QBs...no i am right, the nfl has adapted and "pro style" doesnt quit mean what it used to.
and btw if you have a problem PM me.
Russel Wilson is sort of rewriting what a small quarterback can do isn't he, fair enough he's not an option guy. Washington is running the pistol, not just running out of the pistol formation but actually using some elements of the pistol in its playcalling, not to mention its the second year in a row that Oregon's kelley has flirted heavily with NFL jobs, so it seems teams are at least interested in bringing in systems that aren't what we think of as Pro style offenses.No, it really doesn't, but, when the pros spread the field it's more or less the way we do it.

No, I think you have a point that the NFL's incorporating more spread elements, just as we do. I think the option QB is going to be very rare in the NFL (and with Saban), because the downside is so devastating if you lose him...Russel Wilson is sort of rewriting what a small quarterback can do isn't he, fair enough he's not an option guy.

Granted to you both that Kelly's system he used at Cincy probably wont' be making to the NFL and option is also probably a no go, but what he ran at ND this year, mostly out of necessity and lack of a top qb, could work in the NFL. At least as a GM could probably believe some version of Kelly's system could work.
I'll concede my stance just to end the argument
Wouldn't RG3 be a good example of that? Even if they had won that game, they would be in the playoffs with no QB.No, I think you have a point that the NFL's incorporating more spread elements, just as we do.

I look how the Niners have used Smith/Kaepernick and the Seahawks using Wilson as "examples" of using more mobile QBs. They must have the instinct to throw first, and then run if you need to. Granted, the Niners have run a bit more direct QB runs with Kaepernick under center, but ultimately, you have to protect yourself, and that means only running when you absolutely need to. I put examples in quotes because it's been done that way in the NFL for years now.No, I think you have a point that the NFL's incorporating more spread elements, just as we do.

RG3 is far from an option QB.Wouldn't RG3 be a good example of that? Even if they had won that game, they would be in the playoffs with no QB.
He may be asking but he sure as crap isn't worth it.I dont care one way or the other but with the recruiting class they are reported to have i dont see kelley leaving just signing a bigger contract. Then again the domers are tight with that type of money.going to be intresting no doubt about it. Im sure he is asking for "Saban money".
Saban ASSISTANT money then...He may be asking but he sure as crap isn't worth it.
Well, he does make less $$$$$$$$, I think, than most SEC coaches. If I were him I'd say to the Notre Dame admin. "I want everything that Coach Nick has at Bama." That includes the total support for athletes.Everyone knows what's going on. A raise and an extension.
