QBCompatible Schemes
This archetype is used in the following schemes:
Pistol
The Pistol offense allows the quarterback to better read over center with shotgun formations. It punishes unbalanced defensive lines in the running game with the ability to hand the ball off quickly to either side of the field.
Spread
The spread offense utilizes shotgun formations with extra receivers to "spread" defenses horizontally. Scrambler QBs create an extra running threat that pressures both sides of the defense in the run game.
