[QUOTE="danny daniel, post: 830142, member: 1376"] I was interested in CGC press conference where he referred to his "book" (size of dictionary) of all the play call/situation stats that he used to make game decisions . Maybe looking up those similar situations in the book is one cause of the indecisions and late calls to the field. I once knew a 25 year coach with a great win/loss record who claimed he never lost to a coach who had his game plan/play call sheet on a clipboard. If the papers were laminated it was a blowout. He intently watched every thing going on (even the other team's substitutions), knew who was on the field and who was available, and what he was going to do in key situations.....all in his head. His philosophy was if you are reading during the action and not paying attention to what is going on the field then you were soon to be his victim. Maybe it was just his smarts and experience (something CGC is hopefully growing into) but he had the record to back up his claim. I doubt the feel of the game can be found even in the largest of books. With some experience myself I can understand reading such a book but not using it in real time to make decisions in the game (after all that book knows nothing about this game or the players in it).
