So many comments saying the rest of this year will still be the same Canada playbook. That the only thing changing will be morale and play calls.
If we can see players switch teams and learn whole new playbooks, Dobbs as a great example. Why can’t we change the playbook and schemes Slowly over the course of 2-3 weeks?
That way by the time playoffs come (and if we make it) it would be completely different.
One of the criticisms of the Steelers playbook was how basic it was. just Xs and Os with no depth. most OCs have multiple layers to plays that all players need to understand and be able to recognize. eg: if man coverage, do this. if zone do this. If outside leverage, do this. if zone blitz, do this. etc. Each play containing multiple pages of notes. Thisis why players talk about studying the play book. This is one of the reasons behind so many break downs between Kenny and the jets. With no specific guidance on what to do in situations, players must fall back on their experience. different experiences means different decisions, means Kenny throwing to empty spots.
I expect a reduced playbook with more complexity that will expand each week. I hope.
