You people realize that both the Air Coryelland West Coast systems are just branches of the offense that Sid Gillman innovated in the 50s with the Rams and brought to the Chargers in 60s, right?
Air Coryell just emphasizes the intermidiate and deep routes, while the West Coast system places more emphasis on the short passing game.
The Saints passing attack really resembles what Gillman and John Hadl were doning in the eArly-mid 60s, in that they have a more equal mix of the two concepts.
