My main point was that he was saying "It's amazing what these guys do out of shotgun all the time." My point was that no it's not as much. It's a QB friendly system.

They're a huge part of it, as is the QB.
The patriots actually ran MORE shotgun/spread stuff when Cassel was playing than they did with Brady.. and he still got sacked twice as much on fewer attempts. Cassel looked better than he should have, but you can obviously still see a chasm in their abilities.
I would love to see us run more shotgun spread type stuff. I've been advocating such a thing since 2007 when we scrapped the Coryell offense.
