What are you calling a pro style offense ? Some teams in the NFL run spread offenses . I would think the opposite looking at the 3 playoff champions. You need a passing QB more then a running QB. Cardelle Jones and Coker are both passing pro style QBs who won playoff championship .Watson is a dual threat QB that can pass the ball and passes enough that he will be drafted high as a QB. Look at OSU and BAMA they both have one championship in the last 3 years and it's the only year they had a passing QB.

Oh how many Professional teams run the spread? Exactly. Its more about execution than one is better than the other. A lethal pro-style offense is better than an impotent spread.

Watson was never a dual threat QB, he was a pro style QB coming out of high school, now granted he can run pretty good.
In addition, all the projections I've seen of him show him as a third to fourth rounder, with some even showing him as a fifth rounder. The knock on him is he never played QB in a pro style offense. Thus, he's has never taken snaps from under center. He also doesn't know how to handle a huddle.
The biggest concern about him though, although he didn't show it in the National Championship game, is he struggled for a large part of the season with his accuracy.

You gotta be kidding. If you are referring to that four loss Louisville qb as better than Watson you are a fool.

In your mind the West was tougher than the East? This ain't 2015 anymore.
I don't care what year it is, if you get your doors blown off 45-14 by Ole Miss (1-5 in division games), you ain't competing in the SEC West.
SEC divisions head to head in 2016: West 10, East 5

Well y'all make up your minds. Is it still 2015 or isn't it?
East vs. West for the last 5 years looks pretty ugly too:
2012: 7-8
2013: 6-9
2014: 4-11
2015: 2-13
2016: 5-10
Total last 5 years: 24-51 (.320)

I think you're dead wrong
If bama stayed with the pro style offense with a qb who can actually throw and an offense who doesn't make their great defense play 99 plays they win that game by two tds
It was a stupid move by Saban. Gimmick offense crap. Bama doesn't need that. And they blew it
Damned if I didn't give you an up vote.

Of a treasure chest full of dumb things I have read on tRant this might take the cake. CFB has been played since 1869, but somehow teams have figured out how to stop a ball control offense which works in play actions passing in 2017...If Hurts could pass they'd be National Champs...If Bo didn't get hurt they'd likely be National Champs...If the Oline had been more dominate they'd likely be National Champs. It is much easier to scheme to stop a spread attack than a true "Pro Style" O that has the parts to run it affectively.

I saw what you were referring to, but the issue was strength of the divisions. It takes a lot of mental gymnastics to convince anyone, even yourself, that the East is anywhere near as strong as the West.
