Thigpen got hit WAY more, which is what happens in the spread, yet he stayed healthy.

Some of the benefits of the spread

1. They create one on one match ups.
2. They allow you to take advantage of the speed your team has.
3. They limit the defense by formation.
4. They reduce blitzing.
5. They reduce the number of blocks that need to be made.
6. They reduce the amount of time that blocks have to be held.

No way the spread contributes to hits on the QB, its the exact opp.
