Reply To: CADENCE

[Rich Erdelyi]

Our base cadence is Red-Set-Go. If we were running extended flat motion to trips we would snap it on that cadence which we would say on 1. We could snap on the 2nd Red-Set-Go which we would shift on the first and then motion someone and snap on the 2nd Red-Set-Go. Jet Sweep was usually on Red or first sound after the QB nodded to put the Jet back in motion. We also used the 2nd Red with inflected cadence to draw people offside. The Belly slide series was usually on Red-Set because that put the Slide Back in proper position. This was all done to keep the Defense off balance.

On our wrist band in no huddle the plays were highlighted in Red=1st sound; Yellow=Red-Set and Green=Red-Set-Go so even in No Huddle we used multiple cadences.

Thank you for the question Mike!
