Play: HB Off Tackle

Setup:

1. None required

Reads:

1. Follow the blockers

Overview: This play is essentially an outside zone. However, when the opponent starts trying to combat the inside zone by pinching their defensive line or entire defense this is the best play to use. A lot of people that run nickel normal and Big Nickel Over G pinch their defensive lines every play.

Setup:

1. None required

Reads:

1. Hit the running back on the screen
2. If it is not there throw the ball away

Overview: Interesting enough HB screens can work really well this year against pretty much anything. It is something that your opponent will not really expect, so if the opponent does not user the screen it should be there for solid yardage. This is not an every down play but great to mix in.

Setup:

1. Put the A/X tight end on a streak
2. Put the B/O receiver on a drag
3. Motion the B/O receiver to the right

Reads:

1. The first read is the RB/R1 running back to the flat
2. Then the primary target is the X/Square receiver deep on the post
3. If that is not there then look for the Y/Triangle receiver on the hitch
4. Lastly, check down to the B/O receiver on the drag

Overview: This is another great play to mix into the scheme, we make use of a lot of different motions in this formation to confuse the opponent. On the plays where we motion people we have players going to all different sides of the field so at that point we have our opponent just having to guess what we are going to do on offense.
