The best defense is a confusing offense.

About This Quote

When you go into a situation where you don’t know what to expect, you can avoid making the same mistake twice. One of the best ways to confuse your opponent is to throw them off balance and confuse their overall strategy. If the other team is expecting one thing, you can do something else. For example, if they think you are going to run right at them on defense, but instead you run left, it will throw them off balance and make them less prepared for the next play.
