CPJ and the Run 'N Shoot

If you read the article, JD said that there weren't too many plays, just the variations that PJ comes up with. He said he thinks 'em up on the sideline. That's hilarious to me! I'm a DC and I've planned all week for an O that the opposing coach is thinking up on the sideline in real time? Gotta be frustrating.

I still can't get over how we don't have a playbook and he teaches everything on a chalk board. That rules.


The 2nd "run and shoot" link was fascinating. I had no idea that the QB pump faking was a signal to all the receivers to activate secondary routes. Wow.

I think if we keep our current spread of basic plays (midline, veer, jet sweep, counter option) add in about 4 basic R&S plays that we learn very well, and add a play or two that does play-action off the option, that'd be enough. Ten play offense. Just learn those.

Yeah I think Beejs' idea has merit considering what Dwyer said. It seems like we probably had about half a dozen base plays we would use multiple times a game a look where we got with that last year. Also, speaking of CPJ, I think the main reason we get backing from analysts that our offense will improve comes solely from the fact that Johnson is just that good of an offensive mind. Tis a cool thought really.
 
The run and shoot formation is almost IDENTICAL to the formation we run (the flexbone) for the triple option.

When the Falcons ran the run and shoot they ran it from the same formation except instead of having A-back player personnel, they had WR's at those spots and they lined up about 3 yards further towards the sidelines.

We will keep the same formation and the same personnel on the field and execute run and shoot plays from it.
