It was only a matter of time before the iPad replaced the bulky, telephone-book sized playbooks the NFL teams were using to prepare for games.
I often wondered when watching a game and they’d cut to the quarterback on the sidelines chatting with his offensive coordinator, the oc would be showing the qb pictures that were printed out just moments before. Pictures of plays they had just run and what the defense was doing on those plays to stop them. Why not use an iPad? I know they can’t show video during a game, but the pics would be better, right?
Plus, while preparing for a game during the week, the staff could send all kinds of “video” of the plays the other teams run to the iPad for the player to review at night, in the morning…or even at lunch….as opposed to everyone needing to be in a team meeting to get the 411.
You’d still need the meeting for the game plan, but theoretically everyone would be seeing the stuff for the 5th/6th time.
Anyway, it’s a thought. Here’s your link.
