Do you think defending a great pistol offense / read-option offense is any different than defending a great traditional QB?

Great traditional QBs do not show the exact coverage every play and yet defenses have not stopped those QBs offenses.

The NFL along with owners and coaches has spent years devising ways to protecting QBs on the field. QBs cost teams more money each year - The biggest problem for running QBs is they are a target - And one day they are not going to walk off the field.

It is only a matter of time before defensive coaches defeat the pistol offense / read-option schemes in the NFL. I believe it will be sooner than later. Most likely this year soon.


Just my opinion.

LOL... I know, I have read his comments...

However, I hope Meyer's read an article in The New York Times that reported Meyer's Florida football players had been arrested 31 times during his tenure.

Its fair. I just think the league as a whole is going more progressive. I think the patriots started it when they started running more of a spread offense using principles from Chip Kelly. It was furthered by what the Redskins did last year with RG3, and then completely taken to another level by what they had to do with Kaepernick. I don't know if it is a trend, or a fad. Slowly, the traditional run game is being phased out, with the run game being less and less important. With the evolution at the qb position with Russell Wilson, Kaep, Andrew Luck, RG3, the position is athletic as it has ever been. I guess we will see.

Just my opinion.
I probably won't go too indepth since frankly, we've already beaten this horse to death but the pistol is just a formation. An alignment offensively. To say coaches are going to defeat it is like saying " Coaches will figure out that bunch formation everyone and their mother uses on 3-6 or shorter".

It's an alignment and like all alignment, there are strengths and weaknesses. Additionally, there are endless amounts of variation with the formation and personnel which when coupled with the endless amount of route concepts/run philos, make for a nightmare.

Agreed. However, it did it stop those teams from attending different "college" clinics in the off season - Or it did it stop NFL teams from traveling to Alabama, Ole Miss, Stanford, A&M, etc, to talk with their coaches.

During the playoffs, Green Bay was completely caught off guard. They had no idea how to stop the 49ers offense.

Edit: Sorry that I missed "beaten this horse to death" conversation - I am not here all the time.

No worries. I gave some thoughts in a pistol thread started by Direckshun that I'm sure you can find.
