All 22 Plays
The FirstDown PlayBook All 22 Plays section is pretty straightforward. It is where we draw up some of the weekend’s best football plays in the fall. Every week across the country we see unique schemes or well executed plays that deserves to be highlighted.
There are others who do this but here’s the difference. FirstDown PlayBook coaches are able to drag these plays over into their very own playbooks. They can then edit them if they want to use these plays.
Every week you can expect to see a play or two on our Coaches Community website that we have installed into FirstDown PlayBook. Of course if you are a FirstDown PlayBook member you get the editable version too.
If you have an All 22 play that you want us to draw just let us know. We will take suggestions for NFL and college plays. We will also draw up high school football and youth football plays too!
