Yep. People need to realize that spread offense does not necessarily mean air raid.
Mike Leach's offense is the air raid.

There reason? Because it won't beat the best defenses with any consistency.
It gives teams a chance that might not otherwise have a chance, but so does the triple option, which, on paper, is the greatest offense every designed.
Using your logic, everyone should be running the triple option because it's schematically superior on a white board.

However, he isn't talking specificially about the Air Raid..... He's talking about non-pro style, spreading the field offenses, which Leach, Holgorsen, Dykes, Sumlin, Kelly, etc all run.
I was just using the most recent example of top 10 teams to compare the relative success of spread offenses.
