-If you can, try to count B in their huddle.
-Step off of the line of scrimmage into the backfield to get a better angle to count B if you have the time.
-If B is the team on your sideline, try to monitor the substitutions. If B had 11 the play before, and makes no subs, they have 11 for the next play. If two substitutes come on the field, make sure 2 come off.
-I agree with counting in groups of 3 (3-3-3-2). You would be surprised how fast you can count that way.
-Also, try not to count with your hand (making motions with your hand as if you are ticking off each player counted). This just looks bad.
-If you are working the chains, tell the BJ and LJ that you may not always be able to count B. They will understand.
