TFP 91: Doing Simple Better with Coach Joe Salas

Football isn’t a hard game.

Sure there is some strategy to the sport – plays to call, formations to get into, situations to master – but that’s about it.

So why do we, as football coaches, act like it is so difficult?

That we HAVE to have every play known to football inside our playbook?

Why don’t we just keep it simple and do simple better?

That’s the question Coach Joe Salas asked himself…

….and it’s what help his offense become EXPLOSIVE.

In today’s episode of Talking Football with Coach McKie, we talk with Coach Joe Salas about his “Do Simple Better” Method.
