  • Conversations About Defense
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 5, No. 4 (1983) CONVERSATIONS ABOUT DEFENSE by Stan Grosshandler It is difficult to realize that until relatively recent times the defense received small recognition. In truth, they probably did not deserve any for they were stereotyped, showing little imagination. As the two platoon system began to establish itself and coaches showed more innovation defensively, we began to hear of the "Umbrella Defense," the "Eagle Defense," and in the next decade such names of aggrandizement as "The Doomsday Defense," "The Purple People Eaters," and "The Violent World of Sam Huff." Stars of the 1930's and 1940's will tell you there was little stress put on defense. It was something you had to do until you got the ball back. Joe Kopcha, all-pro Bear guard in the '30s, described how he and his teammates would often lean on the men opposite them when the play went the other way. The object of the game was to go the entire 60 minutes and you wanted to conserve your strength for the offense. The word "pursuit" was rarely used. The great Packer guard, Buckets Goldenberg, brought out three interesting points: "Lambeau paid little attention to the defense," he said. "He felt we could always outscore the other team. I always felt that if we played the Little Sisters of the Poor they would probably have scored a couple of times." He also pointed out that when Larry Craig, the blocking back from South Carolina, joined the Packers, he was placed at defensive end and Hutson was moved to defensive halfback where he became quite good.

  • Axiomatic Design of a Football Play-Calling Strategy
    Axiomatic Design of a Football Play-Calling Strategy A Major Qualifying Project Report Submitted to the Faculty of the WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering by _____________________________________________________________ Liam Koenen _____________________________________________________________ Camden Lariviere April 28th, 2016 Approved By: Prof. Christopher A. Brown, Advisor _____________________________________________________________ 1 Abstract The purpose of this MQP was to design an effective play-calling strategy for a football game. An Axiomatic Design approach was used to establish a list of functional requirements and corresponding design parameters and functional metrics. The two axioms to maintain independence and minimize information content were used to generate a final design in the form of a football play card. The primary focus was to develop a successful play-calling strategy that could be consistently repeatable by any user, while also being adaptable over time. Testing of the design solution was conducted using a statistical-based computer simulator. 2 Acknowledgements We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to the following people, as they were influential in the successful completion of our project. We would like to thank Professor Christopher A. Brown for his advice and guidance throughout the yearlong project and Richard Henley for sharing his intellect and thought process about Axiomatic Design and the role

In addition some rules found within the official Strat-O-Matic Computer rules have been deleted or modified to better suit play within this league. INTRODUCTION First and foremost all rules of football apply. If a conflict occurs concerning a particular aspect of the game use common sense to resolve the dispute applying the rules of the NFL. If the exact rule is not known at that time try to find the answer in a timely manner and if a solution is not reached resolve the dispute by a die roll and continue play. It is after all just a game.

  • Rule Blocking G.O.T
    Rule Blocking G.O.T. We use a two-stage system for blocking our plays that is very simple, logical and very effective. Our single system complies with all of our running plays except our Draw play, which is designed to mimic our pass blocking. Our running plays are based on a point of attack (Attacking weak spots in the defense). The fact that our rule progression works for all running plays our linemen basically repeats the same progression every day in practice. We feel that this repeated work allows our blockers to become very comfortable and very aggressive. Our system also demands communication and teamwork among the blockers and the running backs. This promotes our theory of a team-oriented offense. (Stage 1) Our running plays being based on a point of attack and not the gaps, we know we are running the football at a particular lineman. We call this lineman the “@ MAN” the lineman we are running at. G.O.T. All blocker on the play side, especially the “@ MAN”, will block using the use G.O.T progression. Which is: – G = Gap, the first step in the progression is to look to your inside gap, if there is a threat you stop looking and block him. – O = ON, If there is no threat to your inside gap you then look to see if there is a defender on you, (between your inside foot and your outside partners inside foot), if there is a threat you stop looking and block him. – T. = Track, If no one is threatening your inside gap nor is there anyone on you, you step inside with your first step and check for new threats if not then you track to the linebacker level.

  • How to Play Apba Football
    HOW TO PLAY THE APBA COMPUTER FOOTBALL GAME Tips and Tricks by Scott Griffin EDITORS NOTE, January, 2008 : I wrote this "How To" article back in 1996, but at least as of this posting, it is still relevant to anyone playing the game. I believe the last versions were 8 for the DOS Game, and 2 for the Windows Game... By the way, for those interested in such things, the DOS Version 8 Game is actually more advanced as far as the game engine is concerned. The Windows 2.0 EXE was never updated past what was in the DOS Version 7 EXE. Scott Griffin, commissioner of the Super Football League (SFL) robot coach creator and the "card" & editor for the APBA Game Company. This information is being passed along via the Internet for "informational purposes" only. SELECTION MENU: Set Paths Configuration: In there, #1 is obvious in that you set the path to where your Data Disk is located (i.e. C:\APBA\1995). However, for Box Scores, Stats, and Script Files, the manual suggests to keep separate directories. In my humble opinion, it is easier to save them all in one directory (i.e. BOXSCORE). For me, this makes finding the files simpler and faster. GAME CONFIGURATION MENU: From the top : *Home Field Advantage: Adds three points to all Offensive and Defensive units for the home team. In the SFL, we use this as a way of helping a Road team, that will be run by the completely by the Robot, by putting them in the Home position and turning this feature on.

    9781405177658_4_001.qxd 1/14/10 13:51 Page 1 Fight Fiercely Harvard and Yale Create the First Great Football Rivalry Gentlemen, you are now going to play football against Harvard. Never again in your life will you do anything as important. (Yale Coach Tad Jones, November 1923) When he arrived on the Harvard campus in the fall of 1876, 18-year-old Theodore Roosevelt would have given most anything to become a member of the football team. But he was still a gangly youngster whose physical development had been slowed by childhood illnesses. The vigor- ous and robust man – cowboy, military hero, and outdoorsman – that Americans would admire as their 26th president had yet to emerge. Slender and awkward, slow afoot, and afflicted with severe myopia that required eyeglasses, young Roosevelt was definitely not football material. That November, however, he accompanied classmates to New Haven to cheer on the Crimson in the second football game ever played against Yale. What he witnessed was a hard-fought game, resembling English rugby, that was dominated by the Blues. Keenly disappointed by the loss, he wrote his parents, “I am sorry to say we were beaten, principally because our opponents played very foul.” Perhaps memories of that game – when the Yale men “played very foul” – were in the back of his mind in 1905, when he summoned the football coaches from Harvard, Yale, and Princeton – college football’s indisputable “Big Three” at the time – to the White House to discuss the issue of excessiveCOPYRIGHTED violence that had contributed MATERIAL to innumerable injuries and several deaths.
