Episode notes
Always Create An Advantage
- Give yourself an advantage by always calling plays that create numbers, leverage, or space against the defense.
- Use a simple base package (inside, off-tackle, outside, counter, play-action) and live in what you do best until they stop it.
Run Your Base Relentlessly
- Pick one base play and run it until the opponent adjusts, then exploit their adjustment with counter concepts.
- Stack complementary plays so their ways to stop one play open another (toss, counter, play-action).
Package Formations, Not Random Tricks
- Separate formation from play and package formations with multiple plays and tags pre-planned on the call sheet.
- Use shifts and motions to move keys and create small, repeatable advantages rather than random misdirection.
