It's common sense.




But the linemen are already getting a push into the backfield and the linebackers are closer to the line. 

It also leaves less room for error from the defenders because they back is running faster.

It may take a bit longer to get up to speed but if the line is getting pushed back there is more time to make decisions and cuts. We all have our preferences but stats back up that shotgun is more effective.
