Quote:If you have 3 10 minute drives, it's fair to guess that you'll end up with 21 by the end of the game, or somewhere around there. THAT's ASSUMING YOU SCORE ON ALL OF THEM. The problem with huddling all the time and milking clock is that it does you no good if you dont score. You simply leave yourself less time to work with later on (which is problematic considering how often we play from behind)

So....no huddling is going to speed that process up so that you have more opportunities not to score, and your defense ends up being a skidmark on the field in the second half of games?

 

Ball control and a methodical approach is the effective approach.  Slipping in no huddle to change up the tempo and keep the defense on the field and on their heels is a good tactic to use intermittently.  It's not a game strategy that wins consistently if that's your go to move.  It's something you use sparingly.
