I haven't noticed any references to the NHFL style of passing.. Which uses both the TTQB and a form of pass placement/simulation.. Defenders do get an opportunity to intercept the pass.. You have to have the ability to throw the TTQB.. AND.. Your receivers have got to be tweaked to run straight and true.. WITH.. enough strength or escapability to get away from the defenders.. Only the best of the best can be successful at this style.. (which is further proof that I am NOT one of those.. lol)
We incorporated both styles into the Tornado Alley EFL this season, and made rules changes in a way to reward a owner/player/coach who could pass the NHFL style.
And the reason I pushed so hard for the sticks? I'll admit it.. I didn't have success passing the NHFL way.. Too many times I'd hit the target, and the receiver would not.. or vise versa.. And due to my lack of success, and the number of newbies we wanted to attract.. We can also use the passing sticks exclusively.. It was a crutch.. my crutch...
All I've had to do is look at the passing stats... With being able to pass without the TTQB.. pass completion percentages went up significantly..
To each his own... I like the inclusion of all styles..
But come on.. there's no right or wrong way... no Cadillac vs. Yugo... none of that crap...
Lance Williams in the Tornado Alley EFL and NHFL has the right attitude.. He doesn't care what style... He just wants to play EF. OH ya.. I am announcing a bounty on his old old old TTQB that is as consistent with his fingers on it as any TTQB.. LOL (just kidding Lance)
