Trends in Offensive Football: Volume 2 - Paperback

In a recent interview, Vikings Defensive Coordinator Brian Flores said something that resonated with me:

"Bill Belichick and Mike Tomlin were always looking to get better.

They never felt like they had all the answers.

I'm always looking for the next Trend.

How do we stop it? How do we implement it?

I certainly learned that from them."

- Brian Flores

You will never have all the answers, but you can keep getting better every day.

Wise old coaches will tell you that football is cyclical. What goes around always seems to come back around. In 2024, the Wing-T made a comeback. What's old is new again!

Just like Picasso said, "Good artists borrow, great artists steal." If you find something in these pages that will work for your team, make sure you put it to good use.

Trends in Offensive Football is designed to help football coaches respond to the most unique and effective schemes from the previous season. The purpose of this book is not to encourage you to follow every trend. You don't need a brand new system, but you might need a few tweaks and wrinkles that keep your team operating at peak efficiency.

If you're a Defensive Coach who stumbled upon this book, hopefully, these Trends will inspire you to respond with a creative defensive solution. The most fun I've ever had coaching football is facing a well-prepared Defensive Coordinator. Strategic sparring matches sharpen both sides of the ball and keep this great game moving forward.
