[QUOTE="GTNavyNuke, post: 60242, member: 322"] I'm with you. This is why I asked the question in the first place. If two people have to make the same read, then bad things are likely to happen. There has to be a protocol, otherwise you'll get lots of fumbles. Given the TO is set up to grind out yards if need be or get big plays if the D screws up, having a lot of fumbles kills the entire system. Thus this communication / protocol is important. I didn't realize that we were so bad in 2010 and 2008 but here are the stats. I realize that we run a lot more, but this stat is fumbles lost, not just fumbles. THis is probably why CPJ talks about fumbles and ball control so much......... Year, then fumbles lost, then ranking of about 120 D1 teams [url]http://www.cfbstats.com/2008/leader/national/team/offense/split01/category17/sort01.html[/url] 2013, 11, 86th 2012, 12, 87th 2011, 11, 61st 2010, 20, 119th (we tied for the worst in CFB, awful year where we would drive and fumble like clockwork) 2009, 12, 79th 2008, 20, 118th (we were learning the system till we forgot it in 2010) For passing routes, often times the QB will throw to a certain area when he sees a certain D. It's up to the receiver to make the same read and adjust his route. In that case, you usually get an incompletion. In our case with the BB/QB, you get a fumble. [/QUOTE]
