IT IS WHO WE AREIT IS WHO WE ARE

3 LEVELS OF PURPOSE3 LEVELS OF PURPOSE

– OFFENSE- MAKE PLAYS BY TAKING CARE OF THE BALL AND TAKING WHAT THE DEFENSE GIVES US.

– DEFENSE- GET OFF THE FIELD BY PLAYING FAST AND PHYSICAL.

– SPECIAL TEAMS- CHANGE THE WHOLE GAME (MOMENTUM & FIELD POSITION) BY PLAYING SMART TOGETHER.

(Who we are by How We Score)(Who we are by How We Score)

PHILOSOPHY

Establish Clear Cut Goals

Eliminate Turnovers and Negative Plays (End Every Drive with a Kick)

Prioritize Touches (Get in the Playmaker’s Hands)

Best 11 Football Players on the Field

53/ 100 (Make the Defense cover the Whole Field)

No Huddle (Check Capability) (Goal 15 seconds on the Play Clock)

Know Your Role

Take what the Defense gives You

SCHEME (Based out of various personnel/ formations and motions)

Run Game: Triple Option Scheme/ Gap Scheme

Play Action: Off all Run Game + Mesh & throw Quick/ Intermediate

Quick Game: 1 High (Leverage/ Flat Defender)/ 2 High (Corner/ ½ Box)

Intermediate: 1 High/ 2 High + Double Move Routes

Screens: Carry and call at least 3 Screen schemes every Game

(Who we are by How We Get The Ball Back)(Who we are by How We Get The Ball Back)

PHILOSOPHY

“KISS” Keep it sound and simple.

“SWARM” We take great pride in being a swarming defense. The measure of a player’s value to the defense is by how far he is from the ball at the end of the play.

Condition Contact- Out hit your opponent for 4 quarters.

Practice and Preparation-We believe games are Won and Lost on Mon. thru Thurs.

Tackling-We must be great tacklers in order to be a great defense.

Hands- We put great emphasis in having great hands. You are going to get blocked, don’t stay blocked, get off and get to the football.

“Big Plays” We will not give up the big play.

SCHEME

We believe in a 7 man front, with 2 deep secondary. Our goal is to “KISS”

and play an “Attack” style of defense.

(Who we are by How We Change The Game)(Who we are by How We Change The Game)

PHILOSOPHY

Win the field position battle in every phase

Utilize dependable players to eliminate breakdowns

Score or set up a score in every game

Build on or change the momentum of the game

Play with relentless effort

Create fear for the opponent

Be on the attack or give the appearance of attack on every play

Be special

SCHEME

Punt: Spread with vertical set protection

Punt Block/Return: Attack weaknesses of opponents with blocks and returns

Kickoff: Kick to zones on the field and adjust lanes to kicks

Kickoff Return: Sideline returns and wedge return

5 Things that make the Difference for us in a Game

Win the Contact Battle (Be Physical)

No Turnovers/ Get Takeaways

No Stupid Penalties

4 to 5 plays that will make the difference in the game (Must be US)

Be Sound in the Kicking Game

WHEN IT’S OVER, WE ASK ONE QUESTION: DO WE DESERVE IT?

Every morning the African gazelle wakes up. He must outrun the fastest lion or be killed…

Every morning the lion wakes up. He must outrun the slowest gazelle or starve to death…

It doesn’t matter whether you are a lion or a gazelle, when the sun comes up, you better be

running.

It doesn’t matter who our opponent is on the field or off, or how good they are or how big they are, or

how athletic they are; we will outwork them. That is our passion, our purpose, our planning, and our

preparation.

Paul’s charge to Timothy

“Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season;

correct, rebuke and encourage – with great patience and careful

instruction.”
