Watching the Texas Longhorns Spring game and they suck at it!!! Seems to me, you need a running QB to get away with that type of offensive strategy..

You can have a balanced QB, you just need a coach not named Mack Brown.

You don't even need a balanced QB - a pocket passer can execute a spread offense just fine.

The thing is, a dual-threat quarterback will give any offense an extra dimension, and the kinds of offensive coordinators that are moving to spread offenses are generally going to be more open to using a quarterback's talents on the ground.

Swing and a miss. Nice misuse of gratuitous amounts of laughing emoticons.

Try not deflecting from the issue at hand next time.

Problem that I'm seeing is that the "D" is keying on the Rb with pure pocket passer...if QB can pull and run then defense has to respect fake of dual threat thereby leaving a running lane for back

How is this any less true for a more "traditional" offense?

ETA: And what the hell does this have to do with the tempo at which it is executed?

I think we're talking about the ineffectiveness of no-huddle spread offense with a pure pocket passer?

Defense disregards tempo if all they have to do is crash the gaps to take away inside handoff...without a dual threat QB defense can lock on receivers or at very least play a more aggressive defense

OP Doesn't know the difference between Spread Offense and Spread Option Offense.

Sam Bradford led the most prolific offense in NCAA history running the spread and he can't run for shite.

That's correct.

You said that a running quarterback is needed in a HUNH spread because it opens lanes up for the running back, since the defense is having to respect the running ability of the quarterback.

My question is, why is this exclusive to a spread offense? In a "traditional" offense, the defense isn't having to account for the quarterback running, allowing them to key in on the running back. Yet they seem to rack up rushing yards just fine.

So you're going send enough men at and around the offensive line to take away the entire run game, while at the same time locking down every single one of the high number of receivers that a spread employs.

Either you're working with Nick Saban-like talent at every single position, or you're running the Derek Dooley 4-5-4 defense.

I don't think I said it was exclusive to the spread offense (or spread option), I think that is your statement
