If the Chargers want to move away from the dropback passing system they ran with Philip Rivers and commit to the spread option, why do that with a smaller, leaner version or Newton rather than the real deal?

The Yellow Jackets were expected to need time as players recruited for former coach Paul Johnson’s spread option attack adjusted to a pro-style offense.

Collins and offensive coordinator Dave Patenaude say the Yellow Jackets have made an impressive transition from former coach Paul Johnson’s spread option offense.

Georgia Tech did not use tight ends while running the spread option offense under coach Paul Johnson the last 11 years.

He also wouldn’t say if he wants to hire a coach who would bring an offense with more passing than Johnson’s spread option with its triple-option plays.
