Go back in time with the Oklahoma 5-2 Defense Playbook from the 1985 National Championship Season. https://www.footballxos.com/download/oklahoma-sooners-5-2-defense-1985-gary-gibbs/ We've been looking at a lot of 3-4 Defense lately. I'm hearing more and more of it. So it makes sense to go back in time and look toward the origins of the 3-4 Defense. That means we get to break down a playbook! I found the perfect one with an aggressive defensive scheme from the 1985 Oklahoma Sooners. This 5-2 Defense has a great look at multiple fronts from the 3-4 Defense (or 5-2 Defense) and a coverage package that will fit right in for today's game. There's some adjustments to be made. But it's great to see how the defense fits perfectly with the Umbrella Principle and mirrors so much of what we do in the 3-4 Defense System.

This is the basic blitz package for the 3-4 Defense as we teach it in the 3-4 Defense System that's a part of JDFB Insider. First we'll talk about the blitz package in the 3-4 Defense System and how the front, stunt, blitz and coverage all have to work together. This is going to be different depending on if you're a 2-gap or 1-gap odd front. Then we'll look at those base blitzes, and why you might want to use them. And most coaches in the 3-4 Defense System want to use them on every down. Finally we'll talk about blitz technique considerations. Disguising blitzes with no show, show it and bluff looks. Blitzing on run downs vs pass downs, and training the eyes of your linebackers to read out of blitzes when necessary. There's no reason to blitz a gap if they're not running there.

The Run and Shoot Offense set records in the USFL in 1984. Let's see what we can learn from what they learned in 1985! A few weeks ago I started looking at the Run and Shoot Offense. With the assistance of Jason Hahnstadt's Demistifying the Run and Shoot Offense video series, I came up with a base understanding of the offense. But I wanted to go deeper. Do I think the Run and Shoot Offense is the right direction for a High School Football team to go? Only if you have a background and a guaranteed Quarterback pipeline. Do I think there are elements we can take from the offense? Absolutely. So I dug around through a few Run and Shoot Offense playbooks. Settled on the 1985 Houston Gamblers playbook with… wait what? Kevin Gilbride? No idea. That's who's on the front page. John Jenkins was the Offensive Coordinator after Mouse Davis had moved on to the new Denver Gold. Yes, this is the first time we've ever talked about the USFL in the history of The Football Coaching Podcast. Coincidence, with the AAF coming around this year? Yes. Completely. Anyway, here's the links to the playbook and some other useful links for Run and Shoot Offense enthusiasts… Show Links The 1985 Houston Gamblers playbook, and several other playbooks mentioned in this podcast can be found here (thanks to footballxos.com) Get the Demistifying the Run and Shoot video series at 25% Off, FBCP listener special My earlier podcast as I stumble through learning the Run and Shoot is Season 4, Episode 5 of The Football Coaching Podcast I mentioned our passing concepts in The Pistol Power Offense several times, but you can get a taste of the offense with a free video series on the Power series at http://pistolpoweroffense.com/podcast
