Default Update on the play action pass

I've been experimenting with a style of play that allows for a more realistic form of play action pass. Though I'm still getting the kinks out what I have is a style that is a hybrid of several styles that are out there. First you have to at least play with a one stop form of play. My setup is similar to AJ's but can be used in an I, pro, or pretty much any kind of running formation. I turn my QB away from the line of scrimmage just like he's running back to hand the ball off. Now with the one stop, the quick on/off of the switch simulates the snap. There is enough movement in the backfield to where the qb is approaching or passing the rb's. At that point you have the option of handing off to either back in the backfield (adjusting the backs and any unengaged defenders) OR immediately call a pass play and replacing the qb with a stationary qb and running your normal passing ruleset OR continue rolling the qb out to run or pass. The defense has to honor the run because they don't know if you are going to hand off or not. I use this scrimmaging with my solitaire league and it seems to work for me.

Just remember...you must have at least one stoppage which allows you to determine if you want to run or pass. Just like real football the defense has to account for both. keep in mind that none of this is new, I just borrowed from what others are already doing.

Your thoughts?
