no-huddle

Fast-paced offensive strategy

No-huddle describes an offensive strategy in American football where the team skips the usual huddle between plays, instead lining up quickly to run the next play.

The approach aims to tire the defense, prevent substitutions, and control tempo: They went no-huddle in the final two minutes.

A no-huddle offense may be a team's standard approach or reserved for late-game situations.
