RyansHope Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Was just wondering if we could pul this formation off? We all talk of giving Matt various options. this would be the max IMHO. handoff to Turner or Norwood. or a dump off pass to Norwood in the flats might be exsplosive! Not the "Wildcat" But this would fit more into our style of football. What do you guys think? Falcons 09.......................................

Dr. Zanzibar Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Screw it, lets run the HB option.When turner runs outside the tackles and doesn't see daylight, pass to norwood in the flats, make the secondary want to commit suicide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apl2g Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 i think the more options we give Ryan the better off we will be. if that means putting two differant types of backs back there then i'm all for it. as long as postive yardage comes of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mad jab Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 We line up in split backs and a te. Turner and norwood in the back. We run a fake toss halfback slam option. Ryan does a fake pitch (like he did in New Orleans. Which by the way was a thing of beauty. If I could make love to a play, that would be it) anyhow. The fake pitch to norwood and hands it to turner to bruise it inside. It should at least have some lbs looking in the different direction. Or we could vice versa and fake inside handoff and pitch outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neko Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 this formation could be made even more effective with a quick, great blocking TE or H-back (who is also a threat as a receiver of course). someone formidable and fast who can be put into motion frequently, more or less roaming the OL pre-snap looking for someone to hit. it also provides a 3rd backfield element that the defense needs to focus on, and this would in turn open up lots of running options - especially with the extra blocker moving about. barwin comes to mind. though admittedly he needs to learn how to block first.

TNFalcons Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 I remember doing somethings like that when they put snelling in with norwood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
