Differences in each QB's playbook

[dawgpound3]

Anderson's playbook will consist of more shotgun formations, less play-action, and more medium to long passes, while Quinn's playbook consists of short-medium passes, and more quarterback rollouts, and more play-action.

 

So, Anderson's playbook is akin to Favre's playbook with the Jets, whereas Quinn is more like Chad Pennington's playbook the year before with the Jets.

 

So, if Anderson starts, expect that playbook that was similar to Favre's playbook last year with the Jets but if Quinn starts, expect it to be a more of a ball-control offense

 

Only thing that is similar is that Quinn and Anderson's playbook are both run-oriented.

First thing is both play books will be run first ball control, move the chains. That is what this offense is. Now, DA could get a few more looks downfield if he is the guy. Quinn might get some roll outs and quick slants, but basically there won't look much different.

 

I expect the game plan, no matter who's at QB, will be; take what the defense gives you. If the defense is playing a cover 2 and taking away the deep throws, then even Anderson will be throwing in front of the coverage. If he starts trying to force the ball into coverage deep, he won't be on the field long.

 

If the defense puts 8 in the box then the QB, whomever, must be able to hurt them deep and react with hot reads.

 

Personally, I don't think it will matter who the QB is. I don't see either, at this point, able to put a team on their backs and carry them. It is more about being able to manage the game and minimize turnovers.
