Last paragraph of the article:

But here’s what we know today, based on information that we have right now: Among several wonderful options, the more old-school vaccine from Novavax combines ease of manufacture with high efficacy and lower side effects. For the moment, it’s the best COVID-19 vaccine we have.

Important questions I don't think the article answered:
- does the Novavax vaccine contain spike proteins?
- does the Novavax vaccine contain anything that might cause my body to fight against itself?
- I'm sure there are others.

To your first question...yes, Novavax does contain spike proteins. In fact the only protein it contains is the spike protein. A traditional vaccine made from viruses would also contain the spike protein since the spike is part of the virus. Not sure about your other question.
