Griffin is best in a spread type of offense where he can scramble if needed, with up-tempo and plays called at the line of scrimmage. I forgot that would require the Shannys to relinquish all of the play calling and game mis-management. NEVERMIND

Do you......surmise that the teams (and their combined staffs) we plagued with the read option all year somehow, were eluded by this revelation?
