Many good points in this thread .
Some of the struggles of spread teams recently may be due to defensive coaches simply having had more time to work on defensing it.
You do see most defenses doing many things differently now (like blowing up the mesh point as quickly as possible, for example). Most are better with substitution patterns and it seems everyone is recruiting faster edge defenders etc . . .
Perhaps some of the "bad QB play" is simply that defenses have learned to make it tougher for spread coaches to scheme around QBs with weaker/inaccurate arms than it had been when the HUNH spreads seemed unstoppable?
