Well there's this
"The West Coast enables offenses to pass the ball without sacrificing the quarterback's health or his confidence. Of the nine teams that ran the West Coast last year, only two of them, the Broncos and Saints, lost their starting quarterback for extended periods of time. Five of the top 10 teams in fewest sacks allowed last season--the 49ers, Raiders, Giants, Broncos and Packers--ran the West Coast offense."
