re: Everybody is on the "No I-Formation" bandwagon. I've never seen anything like it

I love the I formation...the key is sprinkling it in and running a variety of plays from it. Power run, play action, short throws, deep throws. It's been a great formation for us this year, our fullback has been a real weapon in the passing game.

I have always liked the "I formation" attack better than a spread attack. However, our "I formation" attack involves no misdirection. Everyone knows who's getting the ball; and, when the fullback reaches behind his butt and signals a direction for the tailback, it kinda telegraphs that we have a running play coming up. When no signals are given, I think the opposition can sense that a pass play is ahead.

With the way our offense is run, Dak Prescott (nor Cam Newton) would never be allowed to run the ball, if he/they were our quarterback.
