Intro to Zone Runs 1988 Bengals
Intro to Zone Runs 1988 Bengals
Fire up the DeLorean and insert the second 5 �� floppy disk into your Apple IIe!
We�re going back to 1988�.
Here is a team video handout from Head Coach Sam Wyche that features a young Jim McNally (doing his best Matt Foley), Jim Anderson and Bruce Coslet. Wyche may never get the credit he deserves for advancing the �modern� game as he should, but in this time capsule we can see the evidence of his staff�s attempts to break out of the box and spread defenses. If you lived through the 80s, I apologize for the flashbacks you�ll experience watching this, were just offering this as a continued treatment documenting the adaptations of schemes.
McNally and Anderson cover the run game and Coslet jumps in (38:36) to review Y Option and the rest of the passing game.
The Bengals went on to be the most productive scoring (448), rushing (2,048 � 4.8 yard/carry average), and total yardage (6,057 � 7.9 yard/average) offense in the league in 1987.
