_______

Offensive Formations: 2WR/2RB/1TE 60% 3WR/2RB 40%, 

Offensive Tempo: Slow as possible 

Designed Playcall Distribution: 50% pass, 40% run, 10% screens and quick outs

Plan: we want to go with quick passes, outs and slants coming back to the middle when we see man coverage.  While if in zone we want the RBs and TE to find the gaps shallow.  Plenty of motion and quick out passes will complement the running game.

Slow mesh run style this week with Barkley and Godwin, one of them being the lead back when in 2 RB sets.  Trying to work plenty of counters with pulling lineman and the lead back to the weakside.  We also want to run Watson in more end arounds, WR screens, and touch passes 

First series of the game: we want to establish the run and pull the linebackers and safeties up before hitting playaction 


Defense Base Formation: 4-3 zone run blitz
Run Defense:  We feel that this game could ultimately be decided by how well they can run the ball.  We will be loading the box heavy on run downs.  We want our lineman to push upfield as much as possible to disrupt plays in the backfield and trust our LB core to clean up things at the line of scrimmage.  We will be slanting heavily into the strong side and trying to shoot the gaps when we do and get up field to blow plays up in the back field.

Pass defense: we want to blanket the field by using a heavy amount of zone blitzing.  We will switch into various zone coverages out of our Nickel base to try and keep the pressure on whoever they run at QB and make him 1) uncomfortable in the pocket and 2) not know who is blitzing or where and what type of zone we are running. We feel that his brain will be more focused on not getting popped that he will miss identify zone schemes and we can get some turnovers.  This will also take away the deep ball and big plays from his stars and force things underneath and right into the teeth of our zone 
Within our zone looks we want to bring a decent amount of blitzes from all over the field and to keep their QB uncomfortable in the pocket 

Defensive rotation and formations notes:  we have DT, edge, LB, and DB depth to rotate in and keep everyone well rested.  As for formations, even though our base and dominant formation will be 4-3 we do want to sprinkle in some Nickel and 3-4 formations when possible on more clear passing downs

I’m taking Greenland in the upset here.  Despite knowing the gameplan going in for Greenland, I feel we all know what’s going down for Turkey.    Greenland pushes through the 2nd half and gobbles up the 2nd half and puts Thanksgiving to bed.
