I realize it's only one game. I still agree that pro style and West Coast offenses are safer bets in the NFL but I like the fact that a spread offense is working SO FAR in the NFL and it will probably lead to more variety in NFL offenses.


Depending on how you define "spread offense" one could say teams like the Saints, Patriots, and Packers have been successful in A spread for a few years now

Bingo. Wes Welker was basically running the same 3-4 routes he excelled at at TTU for 90% of his snaps with the Patriots.

The Redskins and Niners each made the playoffs with the pistol being a healthy chunk of their offense. You need variety to win. Not just in formations, not just in routes/run designs, and not in tempo, but in all 3.
