Best Running Playbook

[UDM2004]

I've read a lot of threads and none of them answer the question. What is the best playbook for running? I was using run heavy but I have read that some of the other playbooks are much better but which ones? Thank!

Well, I run a run heavy offense (~60-70% of my snaps,) and I have found the Arizona playbook [surprisingly] to have the best variety of draws, zone runs, stretches, dives, slams, etc. It has lots of ace forms, three power Is, a Strong, two Weaks, and a lot of Shotgun. Best balanced playbook IMO as well.

Thanks I will give it a look. What do you have your percentages (Run/Pass) set to?

Other options are 49ers, Houston (my favorite ATM), and Carolina

If you can run the option then the Panthers playbook is a dream come true. It has a couple of nearly unstoppable plays (unless user is controlling a safety). Great counter runs, good draws, terrific Wildcat formations.

I have also tried the Redskins playbook but didn't like it nearly as much.
