Spread Option?

Are there any playbooks with some spread option/zone read type things or am I forced to try to pigeonhole my rookie QB
Spoiler
into some vanilla pro style offense?

You know I was looking for the best spread option type offense because I love the style. I went through just about every playbook and decided I like the Saints and Run N Gun the best.

I found one zone read play in the Run N Gun playbook, but I'd really like to see more variety in the playbooks if we're not going to get a create a play feature. Head Coach 09 had that wacky triple option TE shovel pass Tebow uses alot along with a bunch of exotic formations like the Maryland I and, IIRC, the Flexbone Triple option. I know this is supposed to be a simulation and that no NFL team uses any of that stuff, but if the premade rookie are going to come in with such freakish potential I'd at least like to be able to do something fun with them.

I'm pretty sure the Titans have a few zone read plays in a few of their shotgun sets.

Re: Spread Option?

Does any playbook have the traditional veer option plays where the QB has the option of pitching it back to the RB?

The Titan's were the only team with them in 09, and I haven't seen one in 10 yet.

Some of the wildcat formations (i.e not the Dolphins one) have a "QB Choice" play in them.
