Putting together your Offensive Playbook for the upcoming season? Here's a checklist.

What do you need to have to make sure your playbook is complete for your football team? It's not as easy as it seems. 

Well you'll need to know how you plan to call your formations. Can you get into all the looks you want to show? And you need to be able to do it easily.

Then there's your motions and shifts. Who can you move, where can you move them. 

Now the important stuff. Your base run play. Nothing is more critical. 

You'll want a counter play off of that. And a way to get the football in the air with the Play Action Pass off that base run. 

How about some screens and draws when the Defensive Line is breathing down your neck? Better add those in. 

Get the ball out to the perimeter with your quick game passing. Then be able to go down the field if you're falling behind (or if that's just what you do).

What if the game is on the line and time is running out? Do you have a 2 Minute Offense plan? 

Don't forget that the field is severely shrunken inside the 5 yard line. What's your special plan on the Goal Line? 

Finally, your playbook needs a Plan B. And Plan C. Got it? 

It's all detailed in this week's episode of The Football Coaching Podcast!

I listen to a lot of different podcasts and audiobooks. Usually not about football. 

But I get a lot of the ideas for The Football Coaching Podcast episodes from those other places. And this episode is a great example. 

Dan Sullivan and Joe Polish host a podcast for entrepreneurs called the 10x Talk Podcast. It's one I've been listening to a lot, lately. 

And in that podcast, I heard a great way to categorize our kids. 

This is all about deciding how to manage your kids. How to work with your kids. Who you need to put more of your energy into, and who you don't. 

It has nothing to do with talent. It has to do with people. 

If your kids aren't bringing the energy, the motivation, and the enthusiasm to the game like you need them to, then Episode 150 is for you!

Episode 149 is based on a discussion from our private JDFB Insider forum. Michael asked for advice heading into his first year as a Defensive Coordinator.

It sounded like a great topic to me. I sent my own response, flipped through the advice from other coaches, and started making a list.

I was shooting for 8 tips for 1st year coordinators. Either side of the ball, let's not limit it. 

Instead I ended up with 15 before I stopped myself and turned the microphone on. It is Super Bowl Sunday afterall, I don't need to be doing this all day.

And here it is. 15 tips for 1st year coordinators. And head coaches. And assistant coaches.

OK, these are tips any football coach should probably pay attention to.
