2 or 3 Point Stance. What should i use?

These are just suggestions you do not have to use them. If your linemen feel more comfortable in a 3-point or a 2-point stance and can block fine that way then don’t mess with a good thing.

If you are a team that throws the ball 65%-80% of the time; then you should be in a 2-point stance.

If you are a team that runs the ball and uses play action; your best bet is to be in a 3-point stance.

To talk more about this subject or other linemen subject please contact me.
