The main idea is that the Colts offense is, at it's core, extremely simple but still very effective, and that the Saints are a lot more varied and complex but they manage that complexity very well. Would we be better off with a simplified offense? Brady and McDaniels have said that it probably takes at least 2 years to really learn their system, and that a lot of time is spent every week working on the variations they'll be using.
I wonder if this is why they can plug in unknowns like Garcon and Collie and have them be successful but we don't seem to be able to do nearly as much with our less experienced guys. If a simplified system meant Brady could spread the ball around more and not have to wait for Walker or Moss to get open we'd probably move the chains more and Brady would get hit less.
What do you think?
