The best line in the whole article is that Griffin almost always makes the correct read. He is effectively neutering the best defensive ends in the league, whom are left unblocked, letting them pick their poison. It's a beautiful thing when DeMarcus Ware bites on the handoff to Morris, only to helplessly watch Griffin pull the ball back and streak around the corner. With this QB, the Pistol isn't a gimmick, it's a paradigm shift that has the entire league on notice.
