2. Why the Wing-T? In an ever growing trend, more and more coaches delve into the unknowns of offensive football. You would be amazed at how many high school head coaches are unsuccessful in their careers based on their inability to gain continuity within their system. Think back to the teams you have played over the past few years and try to remember all the different formations some teams use in order to do the things they want to do. Why is it that so many teams come out in a Pro I on one series and the Shotgun Spread the next? It is the lack of flexibility in these different formations that causes them to be very broad in their approach. There is no other offensive System that has stood the test of time or has shown such ability to be versatile like the Delaware Wing-T.

54. What to call and why? Many times game situations can bring about moments of bad judgment. I have personally made many bad calls during games based an inability to be decisive. It is not always easy to decide what to call on 3 rd and 5 with the game on the line late in the 4 th quarter. I have not eliminated the problem, but have found a way to alleviate some of the confusion. I felt that it was best to sit down in a non-pressure situation and decide the two best plays in my playbook for any possible down and distance situation. There are many times when you know what you want to call based on game planning, but for when you are struggling to call a play, just go to your chart and find the play that you have confidence in in converting a certain down and distance. On next slide there is a copy of the play chart I use.

56. Out Flank the Defense and get the Edge With the evolution of defensive football, it is becoming more difficult to take advantage of offensive mismatches. Why is it that the Spread Offensive is so explosive? Because it is based on the ability to “spread” the defense both vertically and horizontally. What does this mean? It makes the defense cover the entire field. They must be aware of every area from sideline to sideline and from the line of scrimmage to the end zone. If they do not spread out with you, then you get the ball to the perimeter. If they spread out with the offense, then you attack them inside. If they play off protecting the end zone, you throw short and rely on the run after catch. If they play you up tight, you rely on your athletes to beat their coverage down field for the score. Just because the Wing-T does not spread the entire field does not mean that it cannot create a disadvantage by out flanking the defense. By using motion and pre-snap shifting, the offense can gain the advantage if the defense does not adjust.
