Pro Style

A Pro Style offense is a broad term in American football which refers to any offensive scheme resembling those which are predominantly used at the professional level of play in the NFL. The term is often confused with a Pro Set, which is a specific formation that is used by some offenses at the professional level. Generally, pro style offenses are complex, balanced, and require quarterbacks with good decision-making abilities, with offensive lines that are adept at both run and pass blocking, and running backs who are capable of running between the tackles . Offenses that fall under the pro style category include the West Coast offense, the Air Coryell Offense, and the Erhardt-Perkins system.
