DTVT's Spread Offense - 335 Defense

[dreamtheatervt]

While I'm not certain this will be the complete playbook, I have decided to release the spread/335 playbook I've been working intermittently over the past 3 months. These plays are VERY different from my original Pro/43 book (found here).

The offense has multiple 3 WR, 1 RB, 1 TE formations, one 3 WR, 2 RB formation, and one 4 WR, 1 RB formation. The HB is the primary ballcarrier, but a mobile QB gives a wicked 1-2 punch by providing counter-sweep keeps and QB run reads. The passing game will provide a defensive coodinator fits by using clusters and rubs to break apart pass defense.

The defense is organized in a "dial up a blitz" method. Defenses are organized by the number of "attackers". Whereas my 43 defense was very much a read-scrape-close the angle defense, the 335 is all about stunting blitzes, overloads, and bringing it from all angles and directions. It is designed to create more negative plays, which also allows more big plays. In real life, the 335 is used by undersized teams that rely more on pressure and creating confusion than having superior playmakers.

I've played several games with it, and the offense and defense work pretty much as I want them to. I have made a profile for this series (see post below), and my custom special teams plays are included.

Without further ado, I present DTVT's Spread-335 playbook

Sample play diagrams will follow.

Thanks for the update on your progress on this playbook.

Perhaps I will have to download this just to find a way to pick it apart.

Of course, that's if I can.

The coach in me will never die.

Great - another playbook for this play-testing junkie to mess with - can't wait to check this playbook out this weekend. 
 
I'm especially intrigued by the risk-reward nature of the 3-3-5 as I am in the process of trying to figure out which defenses I'll be using in the game long term. 
 
As an aside - like many others have posted over the past few days, I have yet to complete a season as I have been adjusting to the changes with every patch release.  As a result, I have spent a lot of time testing playbooks and trying to pull together some custom books (of other people's plays) that are fun, realistic, and allow the CPU to call a competitive game.
 
Thanks in advance DTVT - I liked your last book quite a bit, and I'm sure this one will be even better.

I re-uploaded the spread/335 playbook...this time with a profile I've worked on.  Still haven't figured out how to make it so it doesn't run the fake FG and fake punts so often...but now it has some specific 3rd down groupings, as well as 2nd half adjustments based on leading or trailing.  The same link at the top of the page still works, but I guess it would just be easier to start putting them in my sig.
