Putting together your Offensive Playbook for the upcoming season? Here's a checklist.

What do you need to have to make sure your playbook is complete for your football team? It's not as easy as it seems.\\xa0

Well you'll need to know how you plan to call your formations. Can you get into all the looks you want to show? And you need to be able to do it easily.

Then there's your motions and shifts. Who can you move, where can you move them.\\xa0

Now the important stuff. Your base run play. Nothing is more critical.\\xa0

You'll want a counter play off of that. And a way to get the football in the air with the Play Action Pass off that base run.\\xa0

How about some screens and draws when the Defensive Line is breathing down your neck? Better add those in.\\xa0

Get the ball out to the perimeter with your quick game passing. Then be able to go down the field if you're falling behind (or if that's just what you do).

What if the game is on the line and time is running out? Do you have a 2 Minute Offense plan?\\xa0

Don't forget that the field is severely shrunken inside the 5 yard line. What's your special plan on the Goal Line?\\xa0

Finally, your playbook needs a Plan B. And Plan C. Got it?\\xa0

It's all detailed in this week's episode of The Football Coaching Podcast!
