GDAWG Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 With a heavy emphasis on passing in the NFL these days, could the run and shoot offense work in the NFL today? It had some success 30 years ago, but the NFL wasn't as pass happy as it is now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we look at a team like Kansas City or Buffalo, the Run and Shoot would work pretty well with who they have there now. Looking at a team that has maybe two great receivers but no run game, it will help win games but not playoff games. The old Houston Oilers in the 1990's is a great example of this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Comet Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Isn’t the Spread offense a lot of NFL teams run nowadays a successor to the Run and Shoot offense? If that’s the case, then it’s basically proven that, yes, it can work in today’s NFL. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
