Can anyone give me the rationale behind the guards and tackles standing in the spread? I see some teams put their guards in a 3 point?

having the O-line upright is that it helps obscure the vision of the defense as to what the play is and creates favorable reaction time for the OL to deal with the pass rush

if you know you are going to throw the ball, why put a hand on the ground. put them in a preset pass pro so they can kick slide and cut the angle down.
toledo who is a oneback zone run team is in a 2pt stance all the time but it looks like they are in a 3pt stance. they are not standing up, they are in the traditional bentover look.

Another advantage to the 2pt stance is that it allows the OL to see any possible blitzes and/or stunts...

Tony DeMeo speeks to that (creating confusion for the defense) in his Spread Option book. We've gone both ways with our spread. We're going to take another look at it this Spring.

How do you feel it impacts ball get off if you are a pre-dominantly run oriented from the gun? Is it in how you teach it or is there a definite natural advantage that a run team could gain?
