FORMATIONS Hand signals for the formation in RED

Tight formation Base formation; zero line splits, tight end on each side, wingbackin two point stance facing inwards at a 45 degree angle, QB under center, FB two feetbehind the QB in a three point stance. Called Tight due to a tight end being on eachside of the formation. Balanced/Symmetrical

Split formation same as the tight formation but the ends split out 8 yards and thewingbacks move in near the tackles. We use this formation to isolate the cornerbacks

and move them away from our base running game. This leaves the defensive end andoutside linebacker alone with no run support from the cornerback against our baseattack. Called Split due to a split end being on each side of the formation. Balanced/Symmetrical

Split Right formation this formation has a split end on one side and a tight end onthe other. It appears as a split formation on one side and a tight formation on theother giving us the advantage of both formations; we can isolate one cornerback thisway and still apply max blocking on the other side. Called Split Right because only theright end splits out. Balanced/Non-Symmetrical.

BLOCKING SCHEMESPOWER & SWEEP- Playside tight end, tackle, guard, and center down block (severe angle). Backside guard

pulls and leads into hole taking the first defender he comes to inside out. Backside tackle, and tight end must seal

off the backside from the inside out by sliding towards the playside or using shoeshine block down the line. Full-

back (3) is looking to kick out the defender on the end of the line of scrimmage . SWEEP Pulling guard and 3 back

are looking to log block defenders to inside so we can run outside. POWER RIGHT SHOWN BELOW

WEDGEConcentrate all of our lineman on to the center of the defense. The nose tackle, and middlelinebacker if stunting.

COUNTER & CRISS/CROSS-Playside tight end (drop if split out), tackle, guard, and center downblock (severe angle). Backside guard pulls and kicks out end defender on the line of scrimmage. Back-

side tackle and tight end (drop if split out) slide to playside and seal off. Shoeshine block if needed.

Fullback (3) kick out backside defensive end. COUNTER RIGHT SHOWN BELOW


9/53

PLAY ACTION PASS CORNER PASS #1

This is one of our most basic passes it puts one primary receiver into the route dependant onthe formation. If its a tight look the WB runs flag route while the QB runs a flat route. Ifit is a split look then the split end runs a fade route while the QB runs a flat route. Ifits a wide look then the split end runs a fade while the slot runs a hash as the QB runs a flat route. The object is to attack the deep out and use the flat as a safety valve if the passer doesnot see the primary or he is covered. Object is to attack the playside deep out while thedefense attacks the playside C or D gaps (offtackle/sweep).

This is nothing more than the corner pattern with a seam route built into it for the primaryroute. This is used when the defense is overplaying the deep out to defend the corner pass.In a tight look it has the PSTE release into a seam route. In a split look the WB runsthe seam route. In a wide look the slot runs a hash route. The primary route is the Seamroute and the safety valve is the flat route. Object is to attack the deep middle as the defenseattacks the C/D gaps and defends the deep out.

The Wheel pattern is a radical crossing pattern that attempts to cross two receivers short and then get up field toattack the coverage vertically. It is a great pattern to use against press coverage. In the tight look the PSTE releaseoutside radically for five steps and then turns up field and runs a fade route while the PSWB delays until the PSTEcrosses his face he then releases radically under him and as soon as they cross he releases up field into a seamroute. The split looks are the same as above except the WB and End exchange assignments. The outside receivermust go under the inside receiver; the inside receiver must release fast and get wide and up field fast so that theoutside receiver and get under him and up. The primary receiver is the fade route and the safety valve is the flatroute. If the defense dictates it the play can be changed so that the primary route is the seam route. Basically this isnothing more then the Corner and Seam patterns with a rub built into it. The wide look is a much faster rub with theoutside receiver releasing radically inside and the inside receiver releasing radically outside and as soon as theycross face they cut up field into their routes.

Object is to rub press defenders off and attack the deep out as the defense attacks the LOS to defend the offtackle/sweep.

The hash pattern is another pattern built off the corner pattern. If the defense is rollingtowards playside to defend the corner pattern and coming to defend run then the backsideseam should be wide open. This is exactly the same as the corner pattern except the backside end releases into a seam route in the tight look while in the split and wide lookhe releases into a hash route. The primary is the seam/hash route of the BSE with the safetyvalve again being the flat route. Object is to attack the deep middle from the backside as the de-fense attacks the LOS to stop the offtackle/sweep.

WIDE RIGHT 321 DRAG PASS

The drag pattern is built off the corner pattern and it again involves the BSE running a drag route.If we see the defense slamming down on the LOS and the secondary overplaying thedeep coverage, especially to the playside, then running the drag becomes an effective passroute to attack them with. It is run exactly the same as the corner pattern except the BSEruns a drag route to depth of six to nine yards up the field. The BSE once he releases insidemust get to the playside fast and look for the ball as he gains width from the LOS. The playsideroutes act as clearing routes to push the defense up and outside as the drag route moves toplayside. The primary route is the drag and the safety valve is the flat route. Object is to forcethe defense to defend the offtackle/sweep and the deep out as the BSE moves to playside.

Scissor pattern is another crossing pattern like wheel but where wheel attempts to cross andrub at the LOS the scissor pattern attempts to move the defenders down field and then crossand rub the inside defender off to get the inside receiver open for the flag route. Theoutside receiver must get up field fast and hard and then cut inside as the inside receiver cutsoutside and underneath him. The primary route is the playside inside receiver flag route and thesafety valve is the flat route. You have to time up the routes steps so that the outside receivercuts inside first and the outside receiver cuts under him to rub off his defender. He must be goingat full speed as he cuts outside to take advantage of the rub and get open. Object is to crossreceivers so that the primary receiver gets outside into the corner (deep out) as the defense

bites on the offtackle or sweep.

WIDE RIGHT 031 DRAG AWAY PASS

The drag away pattern is built off of the corner pattern. It is designed to be a throw back or abootleg to the backside of flow. The second receiver runs a drag route towards the backsidegaining depth just as he would on the drag pattern. In Tight it is the PSTE, in Split it is the PSWBwhile in the wide it is the PS Slot. The primary receiver is the drag route while the safety valve isthe flat unless it is a bootleg, then it is a pass/run option if the receiver is not seen or covered.Object is to get a receiver on the backside of flow to take advantage of over pursuit anddefenders coming down on the LOS to defend counter.

This play is built of the corner pattern as well. The primary receiver is the second receiverrunning the hook route and the safety valve is the flat route. He release upfield 6 to 8

yard and then works outside in to an open space facing the LOS. In Tight it is the PSTE, while inthe split it is the PSWB and in the wide it is the PS Slot. Bear in mind in wide that the receivershould radical release inside to sell the Hash route to force the defender to move farther inside.The object here is to attack the hole created when the defense defends the corner pattern andthe base running game.

The far hook is another pattern built off the corner pattern. It is doing the same thing thatThe drag away pattern is doing. We want a receiver to get open on the backside of the base runaction and either throwback or bootleg away from flow. The primary receiver is the left endrunning the inside hook route and the safety valve is the flat route on playside if it is a throwback.Object of this pattern is to get flow going to playside and then hit the backside receiver whoshould be open in space.

PLAY ACTION PASS MESH #10

SPLIT 151 MESH PASS

SPLIT RIGHT 051 MESH PASS

WIDE RIGHT 051 MESH PASS

Mesh pattern is based on the bunch principle; it is the most basic bunch pattern. The first outsidereceiver runs a flag/fade pattern while the second receiver runs a whip out pattern and the safetyvalve is the flat route. The primary receiver is the whip out pattern while the safety valve is the flatroute. In tight formation the PSWB runs a flag route, the PSTE runs the whip out pattern, and theQB runs the flat route unless noted. In the split formation the PSSE runs the fade, the PSWBruns the whip out, and the QB runs the flat route. The flat route in the pattern is going to beopened due to the rub action of the whip out and the clearing action of the flag/fade. So a lot ofpasses can go the flat.

DROP BACK PASS #1 WIDE 87 SLANT DROP

The SHORT package is based on the split end running a Quick Slant under the slots Slantroute. This route is best used against a ZONE or SOFT cover CB. You must watch theinside defender sitting on the FLAT zone. The slot must drive the inside defender deep sothat the quick slant can get under the inside defender while forcing the CB to trail him withthe inside release. This package can work on a bump and run technique or a hard insideshade tech but the slot must release clean and must sell the deep threat on the burst then cuthard inside and force the defender to cover him. The split end also must release clean andgain separation fast.

DROP BACK PASS #2 WIDE 81 RUB DROP

RUB SCREEN is best used against a bump and run or hard tech. The slot receiver must rubthe man on the split end, this means to interfere with his coverage by running between himand the split end. It is not a pick he his not making contact with the cover man instead he hisscreening the defender with his body at the same time the split end releases into the insideflat. The split end shuffles back until the slot rubs the cover man and then he releaseslooking for the ball immediately. This can be run against a soft cover if the CB is playing upbut it is best played against the above.

POP PASS is an immediate throw to the slot that releases and looks for the ball. Thequarterback must throw the ball ahead of the receiver so that he can catch on the run bydoing so it allows him to gain additional yards after the catch. This pass is best used against aZONE or SOFT cover.Also if the inside defender is blitzing often then the pop pass behindhim can be a good pass to stop it. The slot must sell the Hash route to force the defender toback pedal giving him space to make the reception.

DROP BACK PASS #6 WIDE 79 VACUUM DROP

VACUUM PASS is the reverse of the rub screen in that the slot receiver shuffles back andturns to the quarterback as if to get a pass behind the LOS often called a TURN route. Bydoing so he sucks the man over him behind the LOS meanwhile the split end releases overthe sucked in defender for the ball which is thrown into the empty space. This is best usedon HARD man to man or BUMP and RUN tech. It is also useful against ZONE or SOFT coverif they are biting hard on the inside receiver. Especially useful after hitting a couple of Popor Rub routes since the defender will break on the slot if he suspects a pass to him .

CROSS PASS is another reversal of the rub screen in that the split end runs a quick slant toforce his defender inside while the slot takes a radical release outside and under the quickslant and then as he clears the split end he cuts up field and runs fade. Basically an exchangeof routes that uses an outside in rub technique to wall off the inside (slot) defender. The quickslant is viable against zone or soft cover but against hard or bump and run the fade is themain point of attack due to the rub and radical release.

DROP BACK PASS #8 WIDE 9 SMASH DROP

The SMASH PASS is a combination of the TURN route and the SMASH route it uses thesame principle as the vacuum pass except the split end is the first option with his turn routeand then the smash route being the second read. The quarterback looks to the turn route firstfaking a throw right to the receivers numbers. He must set his feet to the smash route when he fakes the turn throw so that he does not waste time resetting. The smash route is the QBsprimary throw and is down of a quick drop, he is looking for the outside defender to getsucked in to the turn route and the inside defender to play the receiver to the inside. The besttime to call this is against a HARD cover or BUMP and RUN cover.

downfield until the ball is kicked. The punter will yell GO! as he is kicking to signal thecoverage team to sprint down field to cover the punt. Punts are not live balls until theyare touched by the team receiving the punt. Cover as you do kickoffs keep the ball onthe side of you that it started on. If touched by other team look for the fumblerecovery. Punter is last defense, Wingbacks go to ball carrier, and Ends have outsidecontain.
