[QUOTE="MidtownJacket, post: 492031, member: 959"] I thought this has been asked before, and Coach responded by saying essentially he thinks it puts the offense at a disadvantage. The basic principle of the option is to disguise or overload a path such that you have numeric advantage on the defense. Rolling out a shotgun or even pistol alignment moves your QB further from the line of scrimmage (essentially giving the defense more time / space to make the read and diagnose the play) if you run it and also makes you travel further to get back to the line of scrimmage. Additionally, if you accept it makes running harder than it tilts your hand to show you likely will be passing from the gun which makes playaction less dangerous. [/QUOTE]
