Have an interesting question for you guys that are either currently a coordinator or have ever been one:
For example, every Thursday night when my family goes to bed I stay up about an extra hour or 2 and make my offensive play call sheet based off our game plan and week of practice like every coordinator does. But most of the time, once the game starts I'll get into a flow and maybe look at it 2 or 3 times or some games it'll never come out of my pocket, but if I was to ever not do one I would be totally lost and "feel" totally unprepared?? Anyone else do this as well or feel the same way??

Anyone else do this as well or feel the same way?? Absolutely!! But the making of the call sheet is like studying for the test. Run through d&d and situations in your head and then don't need the "cheat sheet". I found on nights I was looking at the call sheet much we probably weren't p!ssing a drop. |

YESSAH!!! I've been around 2 that are excellent 'flow' guys. I would refer to my play call sheet when I called plays, but I was also in the box. It's easier when you're in the box and not signaling also.

All 3 of us that are the offense crew during games have the same call sheet, 2 point plays, etc etc. Bounce ideas off each others heads if need be. |

Anyone else do this as well or feel the same way?? before stud was a coordinator he had the defensive call sheet and sat in the booth....stud would tell the DC what the offensive tendencies were based off of said call sheet over the headset....then the DC would make a call based off that information or based off of his gut feeling....when stud was a DC he didn't get that luxury and never felt like he had time to look at the call sheet and went purely off instinct....but if stud didn't have a good gut feeling he would glance at the sheet...don't think it ever really helped though... same for me. i make a defensive call sheet with d&d, favorite formation according to d&d and top play out of each formation. we're 1-8 right now, so i made one last night, but doubt i'll use it tonight. |

Well I'm same as all of you. I may check some stuff in between series, but I do take it out and write some notes on things quite often, like if something was a good or bad third down call or if I want to use a shot play etc..

I don't make one anymore. I never really used it anyway. I just get the adjustments from my box guys and we go from there. I, like you hands, are a flow guy.

When I was a DC I would make one. Actually I would make a new one just about every day of the week. Then on Fridays, I really only looked at it between series.

for those of you that don't....we always laminated ours and wrote on it w/ sharpie....different colors of sharpie and would star or X or check mark certain things... Exactly what i do. Sounds stupid but I use red green and blue sharpie. Red is what I use to eliminate stuff, blue is for when somethings works and we need to come back to it, and green are for things that are good that we just need to make an adjustment on. |

I do this too. Red no go, green a go.

I always had a call sheet, but like Hands looked at it between series, once we got in a flow very seldom used it. How many guys Script first 10 or so plays of the game?

I used to script first 10, now I script about the first 6. I think 10 is too much, especially if it doesn't go exactly how you think it will and you end up coming off your sheet anyways! |

Yep I can a feel u need it really for the assistants to be looking at in case they notice something , like u said U get into the flow and there might be something on the sheet that could be good but you are in the flow so u don't think about it, but the booth coaches and assistants could bring it up |

Call sheet was mainly there to organize my thoughts before a game, never gets looked at during a game
