the spread offense means different things to different people. if you watch a lot of college football, the spread is used very often with the option. I would consider a team like the Florida Gators a running option team. They have a balanced offense with run and pass. But the Gators version of the spread is obviously very different than what the Chiefs ran last year, but they both seem to follow under the same name of spread offense.
I think a lot of the hatred of the spread comes from people thinking of the option and the amount of hits the QB takes in that type of offense. A QB can't take that many hits in the pro game. Option QBs have not been successful in the NFL, at least at QB, some have made pretty good receivers.
