I had hoped that page had been ripped from the playbook forever.

Effective sideways passing is perfectly fine in my book.

I think it just got a bad reputation in the Mack Brown years because Greg Davis relied on it too much.

So when will we start having effective sideways passing?

 

[Driver 8]

It is stupid and I hate it

 

[txhorn_et]

But other teams execute it to perfection.

I especially like sideways passes to short side of field. There is a high percentage that you will gain minimal yardage

 

[Texanne]

I can’t understand why other teams can set a screen and we can’t.

The one time it worked well for us, oddly enough, was in the 2009 Title Game, where Goodwin converted 3 separate third & longs via bubble screen.

I remember that, and I remember thinking, why can’t we do this all the time?
