Here is another offensive passing game concept. The play is from a 3x1 formation
combining a quick game passing concept on the weak side with a boot route concept
on the strong side.
If there is no space; the QB will pump the hitch and boot to the strong side. Typically if
there is no space the offense is playing a 2 over 1 coverage concept to the weak side.
Weak Side Squat & Half
In either situation the defense is overloading the coverage weak. Against both looks
the goal is to work the flood route concept strong.
The Z is running a skinny post. His route is designed to cross the face of the corner in
man, cover 3, or quarters coverages. If the route is run correctly the skinny post should
force the corner too deep and inside to play the corner route. The skinny post must be
cautious not to break too far inside on the post.
Against cover 3 or quarters the Corner may pass the post off to the Safety if the post
break is too aggressive.
The S is running a corner route breaking at 10. The corner route must stay deep
enough to high low the flat defender. If the flat defender can cover both the corner and
the flat route; the corner route is not deep enough.
The Y is running a slam flat. The Y will hit the DE and release to the flat. The route is
working to get width before depth. The Y will throttle the route at the numbers.
Once the QB runs the boot; he is reading high to low from the corner to the flat route. If
both are covered the QB will tuck the ball and run.
Route Adjustments
By game plan the weak side Hitch can be adjusted to a Slant or Speed Out.
Away Guard Block back on B gap, No B gap threat = firm body position the A Gap
with eyes on your B gap
Center Block back on A gap, No A gap threat = firm body position the call side A Gap
with eyes on your A gap
Call Guard Block back on A gap, No A gap threat = firm body position the B Gap with
eyes on your A gap
Call Tackle Block back on B gap, No B gap threat = firm body position the C Gap with
eyes on your B gap
A C gap defender, block his outside number and seal the edge
The LT is the away OT and will cut the C gap defender (DE). The cut is designed to
keep the DEs hands down and out of the throwing lane to the hitch.
The LG has an immediate B gap threat from the DT and will block back.
The Center has no immediate gap threat in the A gap. The Center will provide firm
body position on the call side A gap to help the RG. While holding position the Centers
eyes are in the away A gap looking for threats from a slanting DL or blitzing LB.
The RT has no immediate gap threat in the B gap. The RT will provide firm body
position on the call side C gap to help the A. While holding position the RTs eyes are
in the call B gap looking for threats from the slanting DL or blitzing LB.
The LT is the away OT and will cut the C gap defender (DE).
The LG has an immediate B gap threat from the DT and will block back.
The Center has and immediate gap threat. The Center will block back on the blitzing
Will in the A gap.
The RG has an A gap threat and is blocking back. When the Nose slants to the call the
RG will let the slant go and block the new A gap threat from the blitzing Mike.
The RT will block back on the Nose slanting into the B gap.
