does any one else have examples of how ONE formation stresses a defense (moves a player out of the box / compresses defenders / etc)..to use the formation as a weapon (shifts are a means to an end....the formation is what is causing the problem)........ seems pretty broad. i mean, we could say "pro-twins makes a weak eagle suspect" but that doesn't mean a team is going to play that against you. granted, you want to find out how a team prefers to allign versus your formations and which one is more to your advantage. but, sometimes, they will align a certain way to a formation and by you quick shifting or quick motioning to a slightly altered formation you REALLY got 'em

brophy-
what we try to establish is that the beginning of each play looks the same, thus putting stress on defenders because of the initial look of the play. so what may appear to be an off tackle play causing the edge defender to want to crash, may be exactly the opposite and end up being a sweep, thus allowing the edge defender because of his crashing to be easily reached.
for us our new look (formation) is more the idea that if you do no honor one thing (the pass) we will throw an easy pre-determined route to an athlete in space, if you over play that we will run the ball against you where you are weak.

I have found that combining Multiple Formations with No-Huddle to be a very efficient way for us to attack many defenses. We use Tempo changes, etc. to control Stemming.
We will also use our normal huddle and shifts vs. certain defensive systems/philosophies in an attempt to gain some advantage.
