[QUOTE="Vespidae, post: 507242, member: 2957"] Love this! I read a very very good book (out of print now) and the author described Bear Bryant's approach to football and it was this. In Bryant's view, football is a game of errors. And long drives (in Bryant's view) CANNOT be sustained. Too often, the team loses focus and the next thing you know, there's a penalty, missed assignment, fumble, etc. The way to overcome that is you must have at least one explosive play per series to shorten the field. Whether it's a 30 yard run or a pass over their heads ... doing so eliminates the opportunity for a stall. That's why I get back to ... what are the core principles of the offense in terms of strategy. (I had a boss once who had played baseball and quipped, "It's a game played in front of 40,000 fans, none of whom, have the slightest idea what is going on.") [/QUOTE]
