Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 4000380, member: 405"] Problem with the spread is that it becomes a contest of who has the better athletes on the perimeter, and I'm afraid we aren't going to win most of those match-ups at the highest level. I like a run-first, play action, option, counter kind of running attack. I like offensive linemen to fire off the ball, instead of back up to protect the pass while better athletes try to get past them (and frequently do ...). Offensive line play is best when it's built on effort, tactics and a bit of trickery. Those can overcome talent deficiencies. [/QUOTE]
