Wouldn't even have to know about your system or have seen the video even.

There would not need to be a league protocol to allow it.

Not sure this is the best example.

Got any others of how people are borrowing from the MPFL -that you specifically know was taken from the MPFL system?
You would have to see the system for you're self in order to understand. Yes I specifically know people who have done just that, in fact I know how they played befor, and now I see how they are now playing after being exposed to the system.

I would invite you to truly understand what I have writen, think of this as I have said befor, would you take a part off of a ford mustang and put it on a nissan 350z ? No you would not because these part are made for a specific for that type of car and not the other.

When you add somthing it is wise to fully understand how it effects all areas of what you're doing.

I am fairly sure that turning a DB to run with the receiver works in systems other than the MPFL - and was probably done long before the MPFL style existed.

In fact I now it works and has been done before.

I AM HAVING A HARD TIME UNDERSTANDING WHY MANY ARE NOT UNDERSTANDING THIS POST!!!!!

I am speaking of men, coaches, leagues who I know for a fact did not turn DB's to run with the WR until they were exposed to the MPFL system!!!!!!

That is the point !!!!!!! Why and how are some of you defending what others are doing when that is not the subject of this post!
You got it twisted!!!!!!

I guess if some one was using a floating pass placement ball you will defend that to, when I know for a fact that no one in this hobby had ever thought of that and if they have it, it would be after they have seen the DVD, or have been around me and have seen it there.

What part of ( I am speaking of men, coaches, leagues who I know for a fact did not turn DB's to run with the WR until they were exposed to the MPFL system!!!!!! ) you don't understand?

Now this area is for the coaches and others who like this system and what I post is to help them better understand this system. If you're out side of the MPFL system and not apart of the MPFL family then you should stay in you're area of this site and not cross over to another area that you know nothing about.

If you don't like what I write in an area set aside for the MPFL then why are you hear? If you don't like the conversation then go find a conversation you do like and don't butt into a conversation that has nothing to do with you!

Default RUNNING WITH THE RECEIVERS.

coaches,


In my travels to various tourneys, i never saw a coach turn his db's to run with a receiver. ANT and ARTLAX are right. This will not work without the stoppagess. Coaches can choose to turn there db's around to run with the wr in any tourney and any league. They dont do it because without the stoppages, they would get killed. At what point do you stop the board because your receiver will be open all the time. It will be stop and pop all the way down field. With the stops, you can adjust your defense into position

Default Of course...

most leagues allow you to adjust defenders to the receiver/ballcarrier after the completion. You give up the completion and yardage - but hopefully not the big play - almost like a prevent.

And Manta Ray - I have seen guys do this, seen kids do this and in fact I have done it. And I have not yet viewed the video or the MPFL system in person. I just decided to do it. That is what I was trying to say to AB.

And yes, I can see with multiple stops and adjustments (as in the MPFL) how it can be an effective technique.

Me, Malcolm and Kevin used match up a slow moving corner to run with, the wr while the safety runs down to him, creating like a zone coverage look. ofcourse, if we did not get pressure on the QB, it was to the house on the long ball - but only if he could complete the long ttq pass

WHich reminds me, since i am thinking back to the good ol days
i once hit an 80 yard bomb on lob, smack in the head of the wr. beautiful.
Cant pass like that now to save my life.

Default Not for nothing

But i turned my db's around back when cats played electric football and just had fun. Malcolm and his older brother Kevin showed me how to do it, and we were like 12 years old. In fact, i was suprisingly reminded of the tactic when i saw a coach do it at Buzzfest last year. Come to think of it, they showed me how to weight the bases also, but back then, we used pennies and clay.
aaaaahhhhh, the good times of just playing without all this.............

(please dont delete this one )

Default Don't Mean tobe Harsh

I don't want you all to think I'm harsh, but there are PM's I receive from time to time from guys not understanding the post.
