We are 3 games into the season and I think I might be doing too much, versus what the other teams are doing. We've made it to 3rd down 1x all season (2 bad snaps in a row). We haven't "punted" a single time, we've won every game by 3tds at minimum and we have given up 6ppg. I'm the only team that uses jet sweep motion and I run several variations off of that motion that continues to open up like the red sea every time. We run play fakes, jet sweep passes, reverses, etc. and every other team is 90% straight handoffs which we then blow up at or behind the line of scrimmage more often than not. I also have, by far, the best player in the league that is so head and shoulders above everybody else it is shocking so that is an advantage that we use.
This league is a 6v6 NFL Flag league that is run through the local recreation dept. Score is kept. Standings are kept, There are playoffs and a "Super Bowl" at the end of the season. 5 of my 9 players have scored TDs and of course everybody plays and I try and put them in a position to be successful. I'm a first year coach, but I have a fairly extensive background in the sport (played 1-AA/FCS ball), my assistant played D1, my primary QB's dad is a D1 head coach so he gets a lot of exposure as well outside of the practice/games.
To sum it all up, should I feel bad for out executing/scheming the other teams in the league that either don't care to or lack the ability to do much more than they are? The competitor in me says absolutely NOT, but the dad/coach of 5 and 6 year olds says a little competitive balance might make this more fun for all.
