Offensive Philosophy

“We’re going to do what we do, no matter what you do.” Don’t let a defense scare you out of your

game plan. Find a different way to run what you want to

Change formation before blocking. Stud OLB that our FB

can’t move out of the hole.

Change formation before blocking. Shifting to gReen

forces the stud wider. No changes to

blocking– nothing needs to be taught.

Don’t counter from a play they don’t fear. Establish your core series.

“Bleed” the field. You only need to average 3.33 or 2.5 yards per

Modes of thought-- Strategy: Planning and preparation.

Based from: Scouting reports. Knowing your team. Knowing your staff. Knowing yourself.

Modes of thought-- Tactics: Execution.

Based from: Perfect practice. Spotting weaknesses. Probing the defense. Calling the right plays at the right time.

Preparation (Strategy)

The scouting report. Have a scout you can trust. If you can’t video, then send two scouts.

Offense and offensive special teams. Defense and defensive special teams.

Scouting forms. Your best guess.

Unless the team you’re scouting is playing another DWing team, odds are they’ll be different for you.

Figure out who the studs and duds are. When one scout isn’t actively recording, he

should watch substitutions. Get a program! (Can’t tell the players without

Gap-8/GAM. May require “O”

blocking. Cover one, bump

linebackers. Formation to widen off-

Training your staff. Defensive front recognition.

7-D. Similar to Gap-8. Ends/OLBs may be

swapped. Cover one or three

possible. Mike plays sideline to

sideline.

Training your staff. Defensive techniques. Must be able to

recognize on game day.

Hard at the youth levels– players move around.

“Booth Kit” Two Radios with spare

batteries. Headset/Earpiece for

each radio. 10X Binoculars.

Check before you leave. Make sure the radios

work. Check before the

game. Interference.

Establish a code. “Country Music”.

Communications from and to the booth Why is that guy up there?

Looking good. Helping your team.

Two-way communications. He can’t help if he doesn’t know the play. Chart it– Who to watch for every play.

Game Day (Tactics)

“Default Settings” Chart each play you have a counter for. “Eyes in the sky” watches the same player(s)

every time. Keep this fewer than four players.

Playcalling Probe the defense. No counters until “Eyes” gives the OK.

Game Day (Tactics)

35 Quick Trap at Upper Lake. Eyes: “Playside

‘backer is cheating to motion.”

Game Day (Tactics)

45 X-Toss at Calistoga. Eyes: “Backside

linebacker isn’t staying home.”

Peel back and block OLB.
