Does anyone have any good sites or information on how teams are running the spread offense as it refers to their play calling. Are they showing the whole offense in the first quarter to give the defense too much to process all at once or is it better to not show everything so in the second half you can use all of your motions and reverses etc. Basically what is everyone opinion, Is it better to come out guns blazing and attack the defense with everything you have knowing they have plenty of time to adjust to it? Or is it better to ease into your offense, using motions and reverses sparingly untill the second half where you show them everything you have knowing they cant adjust as easily or quickly. Thanks!

Agree, use your scouting report on your opponents defense...See what they "typically" do vs. teams that do similar things that you do, ie. what they do vs. trips, motion...Also try to "figure out" what they are going to do different for you..They might change up something in the past, be ready for that...We usually script about 10 plays, those will include some plays that have motion, a few different formations, just to get a feel for what they are doing Friday night against us...Then adjust from there, don't wait until halftime...Hope some of that helps...

Makes sense. I was just over thinking the situation. Just new to the spread myself and trying to learn more about plays and setting them up so teams arent keying on one person or one motion.

see i think it is better for the other team to know what you are doing. It is more demoralizing when you do it them. they know you are going to throw vertical and they cannot stop you, you have successful psychologically assulted them.

not an offensive guru, but with any offense, I think you come out in some formations and/or plays see how the defense reacts and play it from there. Some coaches script plays and have an if..then chart. if they do this then we do that. the zenith of this is Paul Johnson at Gtech calling his whole offense from the top of his head
