I want to take a look at the Power running play out of the I Formation against the multiple fronts we’ve been talking about – 3-4, 4-2-5 and 4-3 Defense. This all is sparked by my curiosity about how this style of team would handle a 3-4, so if there are any 3-4 guru’s out there could you please enlighten me!The power is extremely effective when it is run properly, and there’s no reason to waste time on stopping it when the play is run poorly. It seems to me that the best teams that run the Power are hitting the play tighter to A gap than they are hitting C Gap. These are true power running teams. They’ll get your Defensive End crashing down hard, occasionally hooking him or running a toss around him to keep him honest.
