  10. What are TAGs ??? If I were more like Derek Wade, I could spend the next 20 minutes telling you the history of TAGs and all you ever wanted to know about ‘toe tags’ and ‘price tags’ and ‘red tag specials’ … But I am not nearly so loquacious …

  11. What are TAGs ??? So Quite Simply Put … TAGs are ADJUSTMENTS

  12. Why do we use TAGs ??? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

  13. Why do we use TAGs ??? • Overcome Defensive Adjustments • Crashing Defensive Ends • Blitzing Corners • Blitzing Outside Linebackers

  14. Why do we use TAGs ??? • Overcome Defensive Adjustments • Crashing Defensive Ends • Blitzing Corners • Blitzing Outside Linebackers • Overcome Defensive Advantages • Talent, Talent, Talent • Size, Size, Size

  15. Why do we use TAGs ??? • Bottom Line is … • Sometimes we need to: • Create a ‘bubble’ • Create a mismatch (in our favor) • Move a Defensive Stud • Outnumber a Defense ‘Presnap’ • Many Offenses accomplish the above by using Multiple Formations.

  16. Why do we use TAGs ??? • In fact, many coaches are much more comfortable looking for mismatches in personnel instead of reading a defense to see when they over commit to TOSS so we can run a COUNTER play. • Different Coaches are wired differently. And apparently the same is true of different players. • How many of you have had this conversation with a player ???

  17. Why do we use TAGs ??? • TAGs allow us the benefits of: • Multiple Formations • Large Playbooks • But without the drawbacks: • Teaching each formation individually • Teaching each play individually • Teach your players from ‘day one’ that nothing ever changes unless you hear YOUR TAG !!!

  18. How do we use TAGs ??? • We use 3 types of TAGs:

  19. How do we use TAGs ??? • We use 3 types of TAGs: • Pre-Snap Alignment • forces the defense to ‘recognize’ • if they fail, we get an advantage

  20. How do we use TAGs ??? • We use 3 types of TAGs: • Pre-Snap Alignment • forces the defense to ‘recognize’ • if they fail, we get an advantage • Shift Alignment • forces the defense to ‘react’ • quick reactions are often wrong

  21. How do we use TAGs ??? • We use 3 types of TAGs: • Pre-Snap Alignment • forces the defense to ‘recognize’ • if they fail, we get an advantage • Shift Alignment • forces the defense to ‘react’ • quick reactions are often wrong • Play Adjustment • changes the way we run a play • new path to the same destination

  22. How do we use TAGs ??? • PLAY CALLING • Formation + Play + Snapcount • We flip our the entire formation so we use a strength/formation call. • Brown = Right & Black = Left • We use a simple system of descriptive words or phrases to call plays. • Early each year we call the Snapcount but by midseason the kids just know what each play is on so that disappears. • Example Play Call - BROWN TOSS on GO

  23. How do we use TAGs ??? • PLAY CALLING • To add a Formation TAG, we place the TAG right after the strength call. For teams that stay in double tight and don’t flip, this would become your formation call. • Example Play Call - BROWN TOSS on GO • With OVER TAG - BROWN OVER TOSS on GO • To add a Play Adjustment TAG, we place the TAG right after the play call. • Example Play Call - BROWN TOSS on GO • With KEEP TAG - BROWN TOSS KEEP on GO
