Probably the value of pace and just how quickly offenses can execute. There’s a delicate balance at times with it though, and knowing when to put the peddle down and when to let off is probably one of the biggest challenges to running the no-huddle.
Obviously, you need the personnel with the versatility and smarts to all get on the same page with the quarterback. Garoppolo seems representative of the kind of quarterback a team would look to continue this pace of offense.
Some teams might be moving to more mobile quarterbacks, but what we can read from the Patriots is that they want a smart quarterback who can make the right throws and make them quickly.
The much-maligned “dink-and-dunk” is really an artform and impossible to stop when it’s executed at no-huddle pace.
