Comments on: And then Tom said to his offense, “Bama Left” http://www.footballperspective.com/and-then-tom-said-to-his-offense-bama-left/ NFL History and Stats Tue, 23 Jul 2013 15:54:12 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=7.0.2 By: Kevin http://www.footballperspective.com/and-then-tom-said-to-his-offense-bama-left/#comment-27499 Tue, 23 Jul 2013 15:54:12 +0000 http://www.footballperspective.com/?p=3302#comment-27499 I ran a one word no-huddle with 9-10 year olds. We had the fastest offense in the game. We have won 23 games straight with back to back Championship wins.
We associate silly photos with each play. While you might not hear College or NFL players say a play called justin bieber or showing a photo of that guy. Youth football players can use it all day. I would show a photo of Justin B. and the kids would know what play to run. If I felt the other team was figuring it out I could switch to a photo of Salena gomez. All 10 year olds know who she is and that she dated Justin B. One Word system is the most efficient way to run the hurry up. I think you have to make it a simple as possible and unless you only have one play you don’t have to worry about to many teams figuring it out. If you think they might you can have multiple words that mean the same thing. I used Salena G. in place for Justin B. For example: Bama was used in the article. I would also have the words like Role-Tide and Saban as the play call also. Anybody out there can associate Role-Tide and Saban with Bama.

I would like to know more about the Patriots six-word system. If they are going from the no-huddle, and Brady is shouting “Bama”, it wouldn’t take long for the defense to figure out what Bama means. So there must be some dummy signals in there to disguise things. I would really love to see some specific examples of how their play-calling works.

(It’s been a long time since I played football, and our plays were called “32 dive”.)
