[QUOTE="daBuzz, post: 50423, member: 56"] I don't disagree with your statements at all. However, the main reason to run to the short side is because the QB comes to the LOS and counts the players on each side of the ball. The side with the fewer players is the one that gives you the ability to option the DE and create a numbers advantage. So it is primarily a function of the system, moreso than the desire to set up the counter to the wide side. I was saying that "spread option" teams such as Oregon, Auburn, etc tend to pad their passing stats with short throws. However, the whole concept behind the spread is to get the ball out to your players in space where there are fewer players and allow them to try & break a tackle and make a big gain out of a short throw. And, I was merely pointing out that being able to get the ball that quickly out to a receiver that far away from the mass of bodies at the LOS is a basic tenet of those offenses. Honestly, it's something I think we could utilize more when we are set up in an unbalanced set. [/QUOTE]
