How do you call your plays?

Just wondering what method people use.

I have always called my plays by formation only, but I have been trying play type and the other choices and it seems to help me mix things up better especially on Defense.

Re: How do you call your plays?

For a true sim experience I use Madden. I will allow myself to use any of the 4 plays on page he selects. This a great house rule to use cause if its 4th and 1 on the 50 when most of you guys just go for it w/ a QB sneak etc... with my house rule you will punt unless its late in the game.

Its a great way to learn the playbook and play in the confines of what a real NFL team would normaly do and it also avoids using exploits on a play when "you just need it".

I use all madden and then pick a play off of the 4 pages he offers that I like. If there are none there that I like then I go by formation and then come back to him.

Re: How do you call your plays?
