[QUOTE="Voyageur, post: 1002375, member: 17953"] The "full playbook" consists of the plays that the coaches believe they can run with the personnel they have. Everything else is theoretically possible to be included in the playbook, assuming they end up with people who can run it. In the case of Love, his playbook will consist of a lot of what Rodgers had in his, but there were be some of his own plays, and some of those Rodgers had will be scrapped. It's annoying listening to reporters ask if a guy will be using "the whole playbook," when the answer the coach will automatically give is; "Sure! He's ready." That doesn't tell anyone anything. Then there's the fact that each "game plan" includes a book of plays (see? Playbook.) that they will employ against the next opponent. Some coaching staffs, but not all of them, also have an "emergency playbook" which they can use, if the QB goes down and they have to put the guy in who usually sits on the bench polishing his clown shoes. Can't expect him to run the same stuff, when he ain't capable. That's asking for trouble. When I was coaching, I'd have a game plan, but we'd practice my sending in plays from the sideline, with special instructions, on every down, if key players were out of the game. When you practice it enough, the players get with the program pretty easily. I'd also go to it if the opponent was stifling our game plan. Fortunately, I was lucky enough to have players who understood the concept, and won with it. I think any coach that has an ego so big that he believes his "game plan" is always a winner is being kind of foolish. You need to plan for the unexpected. [/QUOTE]
