[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 815725, member: 12283"] The term WCO referred to systems that emerged in the 70's and 80's that put a heavier emphasis on the passing game, forcing defenders to cover the entire field, and timing routes. Walsh's system relied more heavily on the short passing game, while the Gillman/Coryell version was a vertical attack. These offenses used traditional formations (i.e. 21 personnel) in non-traditional ways (throwing to the backs and tight ends far more often than was typical in that era). The current iteration of the Patriots is probably the closest thing we have to Walsh's style of offense in today's NFL. But the term is irrelevant, because it was originally used to describe a few teams that stuck out from the norm. But today, literally every single NFL offense incorporates the principles of the WCO offense. [/QUOTE]
