POOR CHOICE OF
PLAYS IS CAUSE
OF MANY LOSSES
By JOCK SUTHERLAND

Coach)

Many quarterbacks think in terms
Of mathematics when their teams
are in scoring positions. Instead Of
1.-THE shortest distance between two
points is, q straight line" it should
be "the shortest distance to . touch
down is through the weakest part
Of the opposing team"
Anyone who has followed football
has seen teams work the ball into
scoring territory and then fail mis-
erably in the attempt to score.
Sometimes the offensive team is
excited when a score is imminent,
and loses its calmness and precision.
The players forget how the ball was
advanced within striking distance
and think only Of. the score.
Judicious Mixture Overlooked
A, judicious mixture of plays IS
overlooked and futile line smashing
is attempted. Line bucks usually
fail because the secondary defense
is playing up close to the line Of
scrimmage.
have often seen q fullback sent
into the line on = fourth down and
fail when there was less than q
yard to gain. It is not the fault OF
the ball carrier, but is . case Of
poor Judgment on the part OF the
quarterback.
Such q play will fail nine times
out Of ten, not only near the goal
line but in any part of the field
when the defensive. center has
moved up into the line, and all de.
fensive linemen are playing low.
The offensive center,s first duty
is to pass the ball. He has little 81
no power in his charge, and the de.
fensive lineman playing in front Of
him has. q decided advantage. /. He
plays lower, has more drive, and i,
set to start q hard charge.
In case the ball-carrier, does gel
through the line, he is usually me,
head-on by a defensive man backing
up the line. The other backs also
close in, and ifsyardage is gained. il
