Screens=cheesin??

awhile back i was playin this dude that zone blitzed the hell out of me. so i did what any football person would have done and ran a few screens that happened to break to the house... he messaged me all this stuff sayin how i suck and blah blah blah. but ever since then i've only ran screens if the other person was running them on me.

do you guys run screens?? do you think it's cheesin??

as long as you dont abuse them then i think its fine. if somebody will just sit back in zone all day then ill throw a few screens at em

yeah, but if yuu throw down field it is cheese..

The D- should be much more aware of screen plays than they are, but they still are not that hard to stop if you are looking for them so no, using them is not cheese.

ok, someone explain to e how throwing downfeild on a screen is cheese?

i dont think it is. i probably run 1 or 2 screens a game and if my screen is shut down then i will hit my receiver on an in route. i dont drop back far or run to the opposite side of the screen, i stay in the pocket and draw in the defense like you should do

If screens are cheesing, then double screens must be a real big hack!

yeah tell me how throwing down the field on screen's is cheesing...cause i do!

Hey if there gonna blitz like that you do what you gotta do to win....screens, counters,stretches,,anything like that...for me when a team blitzes alot, i like to counter on the outside..with my fast rb...but also have a nice money play action...out of the same formation....if i can have a couple good counters for some nice yards im hittin a nice play action...and if you got it down....you can get some good yards....

i like cheese mainly american
