Trust Me

A time where I convinced some one to convince me was while I was playing Madden. Me and my younger brother were playing as the Dolphins against my two other friends who were playing as the Seahawks. We were losing 24-10. During the entire game so far, me and my younger brother could not get along at all. All game we were arguing. However, this always happens when we play Madden on the same team or any video game in general. We were facing a crucial third down. I told him that he has to trust me at the quarterback position. Since we were arguing all game long, he was a little hesitant. However, we were struggling all game long, so we just gave it a shot anyways. I chose my favorite play in all of football, the one and only, Read Option. The Read Option is a play where the running back is right next to the quarterback. Then when the ball is snapped, depending on which side the running back is one, the quarter back looks at the defensive end and if the defensive end flies out, the quarterback keeps it and runs. However, If the defensive end just stands and does not blitz, the quarterback hands the ball off to the running back. This play is very well used and known by young football quarterbacks, like Robert Griffin III. When I did this play, we were able to pick up the first down. We ultimately lost the game, but this play helped me and my brother build trust between each other.
