read zone and short yardage

GREENIE,

I run a wide open 3 x 2 empty gun and we throw the fire out of the ball! BUT, I LEARNED AFTER 18 YEARS OF RUNNING A SPREAD GUN (LONG BEFORE IT EVER BECAME POPULAR) THAT WHEN YOU GET DOWN CLOSE IN NEED OF A FIRST DOWN OR TOUCHDOWN, YOU HAD BETTER BE ABLE TO RUN THE BALL AS WELL!!! SO, I GO TO ANY NUMBER OF POWER FORMATIONS ( POWER "I", STACK "I" DOUBLE TITE FULL HOUSE, ETC.) AND WE DO OUR BEST TO RAM IT IN THERE!

Remember, no matter how you spread them out down close, those passing lanes really shrink and an INT becomes a very big drive stopper on many an occasion! I used to be one of those guys who would say:
I'll pass coming out, going in and any other spot on the field I choose to do so". Well, that's all fine and dandy, but if you WANT TO WIN YOU GET OUT OF THAT MINDSET REAL QUICK.

Just my way as always.
