I have no idea why I would think a guy who's ran a system for 10 plus years would come in and implement a similar system. I'm crazy I guess.
I understand what you're saying. Keep in mind that Mike Shanahan has moved to a mostly pistol offense and Jon Gruden has said that if he made a comeback, he would want to run the spread.

I look at the moves they've made and there are just too many players and coaches built for this offense to believe this is more than just a wrinkle. Starting with the QBs. It's still interesting to me that they chose two QBs who don't have Kaepernick speed. Chris Ault swears up and down that this offense can be run without elite QB speed and I believe him.

Now, keep in mind that the 49ers only ran about 30% of their plays out of the pistol (54% in the postseason), so from that standpoint, yeah it's kind of a wrinkle. But I have a feeling you'll see more sets out of it than you might think.
