Mr. Buddy Garrity Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 I like the spread, but you have to be smart enough to know not to use it inside the 5 yd line IMO. If i were a coach i would run the spread but mix it up with the I-Form and/or flexbone.

Real football is played from under center in the I formation or pro sets. ;D ;D[/quote]Amem Soulja. Funny how the Navy and the AFA beat 2 spread teams like a drum Thursday. All I need is Georgia Tech to beat Iowa and there maybe a sutle shift back to I-option or the pure Wishbone. [b]The spread only creates QB who throw for a ton of yards[/b] but take 5 years to adapt to the NFL. It also makes for some [b]soft offensive linemen....[/b][/quote]Actually, the spread is more effective with an athletic, double threat QB. The adaptation to the NFL is on the coaches and what they are willing to let their QB do.The second statement....I just don't believe that at all. If a lineman is soft, he always was.[/quote]Soft in the sense of a spread team punching it in from inside the 5 yard line. I remember a article on Central when they went from the shotgun to the wishbone and the 1 thing the coaches found hard was to make the kids stay low when firing off from a 3 point stance.[/quote]you have to work it in practice...teaching a 3 pt or 2 pt is just that, teaching...have done both and they both have there merits...have never got out of the gun regardless of field position and have had a short yardage package, have had success with both if you work it at practice daily...
