I run my WRs with inside handoffs to get them carries. What I found is that having a good inside run/fake game is valuable at this age. All they do is on hike they run down the line of scrimmage in between the qb and center who is delaying. Then the qb either hands it to the WR and fakes to the RB the other way or fakes to the WR and hands to the RB. As they became comfortable with that I would take a WR from the other side and have them run behind the qb.

Your defenses are spot on. The only issues I have with you playbook is the multiple fakes. In our league, we can rush 7 yards back and most teams will. That is about enough time to fake once effectively. If you faked two routes, you would be sacked every time in our league. I love a good play action, but incorporate a bootleg out of it and flood to one side. If the rusher goes with the fake, all day to throw on an overload flood. Maybe they dont rush, then you are fine. I would rush at the QB and let the LBs handle the hand offs. Otherwise, I like the look and the simplicity of the playbook. I think that is key for this age. Good luck.

I agree with this. We just played a top notch team in our league and the fakes that we used so successfully for the first 3 games killed us with a team that could pass rush. Our QB got sacked twice before handing the ball off before we adjusted to 1 or no fake plays.
