Huddle

Huddle

Der Huddle (englisch für Haufen) bezeichnet die Versammlung der Spieler im American Football, bei der Spielzüge und Strategien besprochen werden. Der Quarterback gibt dabei seinen Mitspielern die Ausführung des nächsten Spielzugs sowie den Snap Count vor. Der Quarterback seinerseits ist im professionellen Football per Funk mit den Trainern in Verbindung. Eine No-Huddle Offense verzichtet, meist aus Zeitnot, auf den Huddle. Die Spielzüge werden dabei an der Line of Scrimmage vom Quarterback angesagt.
