The biggest problem, I feel, is defensive substitutions, meaning players come in only for certain situations. How can a defensive scheme be implemented if there are 20-25 different players participating? How do you keep communication, availability and knowledge a constant? I realize the value of rotating for freshness or subbing for injury, but how does consistency happen when players only play 20-25% of the snaps?
