Overview: This is a very efficient base play in the formation Split Close. It is good to come out in this play because it is one simple hot route. The other thing about this play is the fact that it can beat both man and zone set up the exact same way. A play like this can cause a headache for the opponent due to the fact that no matter what they call, if you make the correct read you will gain yards.
This is how the play art should look right before you snap the ball.
You can see right away both of our running backs in the flat are open.
We instead decide to wait until our receiver on the post gets open.
We throw it up to him and aggressive catch it got a gain of about 18 yards.
