Brees ran Tiller's One-Back offense from under Center but they ran a lot of all verticals off the line. A lot of what Leach incorporated into his TTU offense to combat the matchup zone or pattern reading defenses were doing to combat his variant of Air Raid.

Sumlin was the Receivers coach on Tiller's Brees teams.

I think Rivers played in a heavy spread offense at NC State.

I don't think it is so much a problem that there aren't good QBs in the NFL.

I think the issue we are seeing is the top dogs in college don't translate.

And this is why. It is easier than ever to outscheme and outclass defenses in college, but that isn't the case in the NFL when the talent has condensed from 125 teams to 32.

I think teams are going to have to start taking QBs earlier and give them time to learn.

The problem is a team like Tampa Bay doesn't have 3 year for a spread guy to learn a system.
