Game Planning Tips - Red Zone Precision, Defensive Culture, and Hidden Yardage Wins
Description
In this week’s Game Planning Tips presented by Lauren's First and Goal Foundation, Coach Keith Grabowski brings you insights from three coaches who define what championship preparation looks like across every phase of the game.
On offense, Joe Moorhead, Head Coach at Akron, breaks down his red zone framework and RPO structure that create simplicity for the quarterback and conflict for the defense. Learn how he divides the field into planning zones and builds an aggressive yet efficient scoring approach.
On defense, Mike Elko, Head Coach at Texas A&M, shares how great defenses are built on habits, not calls. His five non-negotiables — relentless effort, pursuit, tackling, ball disruption, and explosive-play prevention — define the culture that drives consistency.
On special teams, Sean Saturnio, Special Teams Coordinator at Army West Point, details his ABCs of Punt Blocking: Attack, Block or Bust, and Capture the Field. His system focuses on pressure, discipline, and hidden yardage — treating punt block as the first offensive play.
