Kyle Shanahan FOF9 Custom Offensive playbook

Hey yall
I transcribed a Kyle Shanahan playbook into FOF9 using the 2015 and 2016 Atlanta Falcons NFL playbooks.

Shanahan is a coaching descendant of Bill Walsh who founded whats now referred to as the West Coast offense.

The offensive staff of the 2016 falcons featured Shanahan as Off coordinator, but also had Matt Lafluer, Mike Lafluer, and Mike Mcdaniels as assistant coaches.

Some of the plays are labelled with RZ for Redzone-specific plays, and others GL for goalline plays (1-2yard line)

Have fun and please let me know what you think

If youre unsure, make a note now of where you choose to download it to on your computer (Desktop is usually easiest), youll need to find it later

Launch Fof9 and Load the universe you want to use this playbook in

Click Strategy -> Playbook

Click Action: Load Playbook

This will bring up a File Explorer tab that defaults to the "Strategy" folder of your currently loaded universe. If you've saved any playbooks or gameplans that you made in-game they will appear here automatically. If youve never saved a playbook or gameplan, this folder will be empty. The .dat file you just downloaded will not be in here.

In this file explorer tab, locate the .dat file you downloaded (It will probably be in your Downloads or Desktop section depending on where your downloads default to) and select it, then click Open in the bottom right
It will be loaded into your game!

If you have several playbooks like I do, I keep them all in their own folder on
my desktop so that they arent tied to any single one of my universes in fof9

Excellent directions! Anyone trying to arrange their playbooks in FOF9 will find this to be of great use. It's a good idea to keep a specific folder on the desktop for every playbook; it makes things much easier. I'm eager to use this to test out some fresh tactics! I appreciate you sharing!
