[QUOTE="danny daniel, post: 163125, member: 1376"] In the hayday of the true wishbone the defensive "word" was to force (D numbers to the wide side) the option to the short side of the field. I believe CPJ prefers to outnumber the D and will often run option to the short side if the D gives it to him with less numbers. I personally prefer the rocket toss and bootleg to the wide side and let us use our speed. IMO Offenses today are faster than the wishbone era and its harder to use the sideline for defense. In the 70s, 80s, and 90s I always used an unsymmetrical D so I could neutralize the wide side of the field. People who tried the short side would be challenging by best OLB and DE who would "flop" to the short side pre-snap. It worked good then, but I did not have to face the CPJ option and blocking schemes! [/QUOTE]
