DC Dallas Flex available
By: Dum Coach
I just rewrote this after losing it. The "D" is intended for coaches who must play mandated, even front defenses with defenders "head up" and with no blitzing. It's 9 pages and has two calls, "Red" and "Green" (I suppose I should add a page 10 defining my terminology.). It uses the "flex" prinicipals of Tom Landry's "Dallas Doomsday" defense. Very effective "D" against pulling guards and the reads are easy to teach. Even against non-pulling teams the non-blitz "Green" call produces one helluva stunt you can't get otherwise. Recommended for age 10 and up. If the offenses are mandated too, then even the bobbleheads can run it. It can be run in coventional leagues as well. On paper, it puts 3 (or 4) unblocked defenders in front of the "toss" for DW and two unblocked in the hole for "cross toss". It puts 7 on the line against wedge. Against wing T, it looks interesting - A real killer against "Waggle". Nasty against "I" formation counter trey and "off tackle". "Contain" is two deep on both sides and no "boxing" DE's are used. Handles up to two "Fat Freddy" Dorito eaters. No major studs required (almost zero) but only hides one inferior player. Oh! Yeah! It's free.
