• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

Rivals Catastrophe : “featured by Rivals” Ad roll out on the Home Boards

They finally rolled out the “Featured by rivals” pop up ads to the home board and all the other home boards and the meltdown is glorious. Whole website now down for emergency maintenance
Pix or it didn't happen.

We have rulez round these parts given that The Forum is the gold standard of the internet.
 
I didn’t even notice that I count not one but 2 flankers which is the most old school position there is

The "quarterback" is actually the fullback in the formation, and runs a flat/wheel route. The two tailbacks (and "quarterback") aren't lined up directly behind what I'm assuming is the center, which means the snap could potentially go to all three backs. But then again, it could be an unbalanced formation where the 3rd back gets the direct snap.

Either way, this shit would fail miserably in the college or pros. I think I saw either the Chiefs or Ravens try to run some gimmick version of it near the goal line this past season.

It was the chiefs. I saw it too.

I’m more worried about the defensive alignment. Why are we lining up 5 guys right in the trenches directly over the OL. We want to attack half a man not a full man, get in the god damn gaps and pull one guy off for pass support
