Why don't you wait until the spread actually wins a game before anointing it our offense of the future?
I have to agree that the spread is a novelty at the moment and only time will tell if it will endure once DCs start to figure it out. Yeah, it's great that the staff has changed their scheme to fit Thigpen's strengths, but do we want to go that route for the future? Just think, how many running QBs are truly successful in this league? Just look at Vick and Vince Young, they're not that good of QBs, they just have great atheletic ability and when pressured tend to rely on their legs instead of using their brains to get them out of trouble.
Keeping my britches between the ditches! :character00182:
