It was one of the precursor offenses to a spread, like Coryell's system and the Run n Shoot (Jerry Glanville). Urban Meyer at Bowling Green and Chip Kelly at New Hampshire were the two that were developing the modern spread, which incorporates a lot more of the running game (you CAN run consistently from the spread!), with some elements of what Mike Leach did as the OC at Kentucky/Oklahoma, without many elements of the run game (Leach uses multiple types of screens as a form of the run, like Walsh did with the West Coast). NFL coaches that incorporate some of it, Andy Reid, Josh McDaniels come to mind, take a little from all these systems (most coaches/OCs are using a lot of this).
I was living in NY at the time and my family were rabid Bills fans.
Fantastic offense. James Loften, Don Beebe, Andre Reed Thurman Thomas, Kelly.
Even Reich, great backup.

Lamar Jackson is the best QB in this draft. There, I said it.

Currently watching the MSU/Louisville game on DVR (no spoilers please) and through one quarter I have to say I am not too impressed with Jackson. He's missed on a lot of throws. I'm honestly more impressed with Keaton Thompson (MSU's true freshman QB in his first ever start). He's running just as well as (if not better than) Jackson and looks more accurate so far.
This is my first time seeing him, he is rated pretty high in accuracy and completion percentage so i find him intriguing. Penn St is as tough team to play but i want to see how he handles it today. Darnold and Jackson didnt impress me much in their matchups but both were rated lower than Browning.
