I think this will have success in high school and maybe some in the lower levels of college play but it seems to dangerous for the NFL. To open up the QB (or QBs I guess) with the ball and little protection is asking for them to get destroyed. I can't much of an opinion because I have not seen much of this but it seems risky. I agree that the game will change but in my opinion this begins to border on another sport haha.

Losers are always looking for a reason why something won't work, or why something isn't legal. I think this is a great offense, I always look for something new and inovative.

i go to piedmont and am on the footall team. the a11 is absolutly amazing and helps give us a chance against teams with 2 or 3 times our enrollment of almost 800. it is completely legal and complies with all the rules. people used to think forward passes were crazy and would ruin the game. our coach, coach bryan says "the game must evolve as the playeys do", they nay sayer are simply scared of being left behind when it does change

this would be a great for football if it was legal in the nfl and college, people used to think the forward pass was bad for football but that has chagned the game in a great way and I think this could too

ESPN ran an article on this. There is a rule in the California school system that allows anyone who has an eligable number to catch (1-49, 80-89) to be allowed to catch as long as the person who receives the snap is 7 yards back. Yeah, in some clips it isn't all out, but technically you could have up to 10 receivers on the field.
I agree, it feels like a spread, only it allows you so much more options.

watch the tape. only 5 guys go downfield on passes. When they all release it is a run. This is the same thing as everyone else runs, just with 2 quarterbacks...which has been done before. They even have 5 linemen in some clips.

i agree, this isnt football, this is nothing but a trackmeet wit choreography made up by coaches wit a shitty group of players so they think they need to run gay shit to help them out, its nothing but the resurrection of the swing gate offense, its only a matter of time before it dies out

its only a matter of time before they make rules against this. you cant do it in the nfl im not too sure about college

This is a really innovative idea. With the two QB set, and up to 10 eligable receivers, I don't know how a defense could stop it. Not to mention, it gives a future to all the QB's who people think run too much and not that great at passing (Tebow, Pat White for example.) If you had one of them and another true passing QB in the back, you could throw any defense.
