Spread Offense

it does, very well. don't the patriots use it? i recall one game a few years ago where the packers used 4 or 5 receivers most of the game and passed at will over some team. i wish we would tailor our team to it. the more options an offense has, the less chance the defense will key into what they're doing and stop it. it takes a great qb and a deep receiving group, but as long as you have that then you're golden.

The speed of the athletes. In college your 3rd n 4th WR is usually better than the 3rd n 4th CB. In the NFL LB's are just as fast as WR's

See I agree to some extent. Though, I've seen our LB's get beaten by receivers a few times. I just think if you get the ball in the hands of your speed players even just 3 yards down the field, it can turn in to a lot.

spread plays do not take a lot of time to develop. the qb is usually already in the shotgun, and he'll pass to an underneath receiver if he's open. also, nfl lbs are not as fast as wrs. maybe thomas davis can hang with some receivers, but not the typical lb.

Yep. The key in pass-happy spreads is getting the ball away from the QB and into the hands of the playmakers. If we had a few quick guys, a spread system could work.

Wes Welker says your LB can't cover him.

    • No one way to do it, it does appear that with the bigger draft picks of the last 5 years…..majority haven’t steered clear of young QBs on the roster being their hopeful guy. Especially past their rookie seasons but even some the biggest ones have had it early.   As far as Andy Dalton, the two young guys he has “mentored”…..have had very rough NFL starts.  Which really ask the why the heck is Dalton here.   He doesn’t really check any box.  No young potential.  Can’t step in and win.  And his mentor track record with Fields and now Bryce is bad 
    • I had thought the Panthers might let him play out his contract this year and hope he stays healthy. If not draft a left tackle and move Ekwonu to right tackle. 
    • Frankly, if most teams in the NFL lose their starting QB for a significant amount of time, they're screwed. The fantasy is that one has a future Tony Romo or a Nick Foles that can carry a stacked team. The reality is that you might get roughly 3~5 games out of your backup before it all falls apart. Remember all of Peyton Manning's backups? Utterly terrible. Speaking of backup QB's, Raiders may need one. https://www.nfl.com/news/raiders-qb-aidan-o-connell-suffered-fractured-wrist-in-preseason-finale-expected-to-be-out-6-8-weeks
