The offense won't be the same. But the point you were trying to make was that Darling didn't get looks because the spread pretty much designs the offense around 1 or 2 options before the QB gets rid of the ball. And my counter was that Bradley had success that Darling did not in the same offense. Again, I understand your point that the offensive approach may not be suited to Darling's strengths. But so far, he failed to make an impact with the Ravens' offense, and he failed in two different offenses for the Chiefs. There's only so many offenses you can run before you realize that the scheme isn't the problem.
I like Darling because I think he can contribute to special teams. But he's been around long enough that it should be seriously in doubt as to whether he can ever be anything beyond a 500 yard receiver.
