The good news is that this doesn't always work, and there are ways to prevent your opponent from using it against you.



A player cannot read run or pass if you are running plays out of any one-back formation or Weak-I formations. Examples of this are Singleback, Shotgun, etc... If you find somebody using this against you, start running plays from these formations to throw them off.



You can also use the all new formation audibles against somebody that is trying to read your play. If you notice that your opponent is stacking the line because he thinks you are running, formation audible to a pass play and quickly snap the ball to catch the defense out of position. By stacking the line, his defenders won't be in position to defend against the pass. Knowing that somebody may be using this against you will allow you to make adjustments to catch him off-guard.



Lastly, just knowing whether or not somebody is running or passing doesn't guarantee a positive play result for the defense. Every playbook has a wide variety of run and pass plays so it will be impossible for the defense to know where to defend. If you are calling a variety of run and pass plays it's still impossible to predict what you will actually be doing.



So while many people will view this as an advantage for the defense, it can easily be turned the other way by using all the feature available to you on offense. </TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>

These guys are like a political administration. Never admit to anything, never make substantial reparations for your mistakes.

What a joke.
