Buck sweep isnt in that formation???
Nvm. I was in wrong pb
Basically from what I see here is you have no options on Y sail if they run hard flats. The only time he ran against hard flats, the only guy open was an incomplete and if he caught it, it was a 1 yard gain. Should just say it only works against cover 3 not hard flats. Formation looks like a waste of time.
I can assure you, this formation is not a waste of time in any way. It is an extremely effective formation.
