Why the Gun Option?

Ability to Control the defenseDefense must account for QB as a running threatControl & dictate defensesDoes not give defenses any advantagesForce the defense to defend the whole fieldForce the defense to play option responsibilitiesConfuse the defensive players

Why the Gun Option?Hardest play to defend. Assignment Football.Great equalizer when you don’t have the size to

effectively block one-on-oneCreates mismatches in secondary to better open up the

passing gameAllows you to scheme – thus having the ability to defeat a

defense made up of better athletesIt takes the defense out of their comfort zone

Why the Gun Option?

Gives QB better viewMore time spent on throwing mechanics, reads, & less on

stepsGives the illusion that the team is a passing/finesse teamCan be effective with lesser size on the offensive line
