How Many Run Plays Did You Say?


By FirstDown PlayBook on Apr 7, 2022

There are a lot of different ways to run the football. The different types of run plays are touted on the internet on a daily basis. One group swears by the buck sweep, another group will fight you over the power. Over there you inside and outside zone offensive line coaches going at it.

Woody Guthrie was once talking about religion and he was quoted as saying “I’d say I am a religious man. I just don’t have no favorites. I kinda like’m all.” When it comes to how to run the football, that’s the way FirstDown PlayBook feels about run plays.

It Ain’t A Counter Unless…

We understand that a lot of how an offense chooses to run the ball is based on their personnel. That’s just smart. It also must tie into your ability or lack of ability to throw the football. It’s a whole lot easier to run the football if the secondary is in a 2 high look all day. Some of you line coaches never get a cover 2 look.

Here at FirstDown PlayBook we have a different kind of challenge. First we have to get run game football plays drawn up for all of you. That is a lot of work. We also have to get those run plays drawn up vs multiple defenses. We also take the many different formations into account.
