My son plays center for the MAA Tigers Mighty Mites A team. Every practice his coach tries to get their O-line to block better. (One thing you notice right away is that offensive line is much harder than D-line. All the kids want to play there because they know this.)

Anyways, every single game we try to run on every stinkin down. Even though our team is smallish and are usually outweighed by 20 lbs/kid, we still keep trying to pound it in. Even little kids figure this out and their defenses stack all 11 near the line.

The result - 1 and 3 so far. The one game we won, our Defense scored.

Guess my point is this; no matter what level you play, if you're predictable and one-sided, you lose. Maybe I should have Herm come watch?
