The Chiefs went to the spread offense for two reasons:

1. Thigpen couldn't play from under center.

2. Thigpen couldn't throw downfield with any consistent accuracy.

So, they adopted many of the philosophies which made Missouri's offense successful. It works in college, because there is less speed on defense.

It doesn't work in the NFL.

No actually they were nothing like MU's offense.

MU had the QB WAY the **** back in the shotgun.
MU had their O linemen REALLY ****ing spread.

MU was an exagerated spread.

And I am not talking about the pistol. I already said we aren't running the pistol. We are going to run THE SPREAD a lot. Which means a lot of 3-4 WR sets or 2 WR with the TE split out. That is called "spreading the formation". Add that to the WPI rola-dex of football facts.
