The read in the Pistol is just terrible right now. I really only run counters out of the Pistol because of that and the slow handoffs on dives.

why is this formation called "train"?

Use draws. Out of Pistol they're actually very effective, much moreso than under center or shotgun, and the handoff is much faster than regular. While I said to speed up all pistol plays, I forgot about the draws.

That's the other thing I do run out of the Pistol or Ace. I can occasionally get a good one out of Shotgun, but no formation works anywhere near was well as either of those two formations.

Nice addition in my opinion.
