[QUOTE="slugboy, post: 850939, member: 282"] There are still some posts over at Football Study Hall from before ESPN hired Bill Connelly away. You could find the plays with the biggest EPA, but plays are part of offenses. Going back to Bill Walsh, plays aren’t a single thing, but they’re a series of actions to stretch out a defense and find mismatches. You wouldn’t find a lot of success with a playbook that’s a veer play and the next page a Lombardi sweep and the following page an air raid pass, and I don’t think that’s what you’re asking for. This is focused on coaches: [URL]https://www.footballstudyhall.com/2016/7/15/12200790/second-order-wins-college-football-pat-fitzgerald-kevin-wilson[/URL]. It’s from 2018, so Collins isn’t on the list, and Monken isn’t either. ^^ That should give you an idea about offenses ^^ Flexbone offenses are up near the top of punching above your weight. You’ll also see Urban Meyer and other coaches that blend in option concepts without going full flexbone. [USER=1414]@ilovetheoption[/USER] Anything you want to add in here? Efficiency is about consistency. It’s about getting positive yardage every time you touch the ball. Explosiveness is about big plays. Air Raid is going to do better at explosiveness than efficiency, because receivers drop balls and passes get tipped, etc. I’d say it’s not primarily about X’s and O’s, or Jimmies and Joes, but consistent play up front is your starting point. Your front 5/6 have to do their job well and consistently. (the mid-80’s John Riggins Washington Redskins did that with an H-back and huge linemen for their day and a massive RB). Jimmies and Joes and X’s and O’s are FACTORs, but being good at the basics that support your scheme are the key to efficiency. It’s like a Swiss watch—all the gears need to be fit together well.
