Pistol Trips

Playbook: Denver Broncos

Formation: Pistol Trips

Play: PA Comeback

Setup:

  1. Hot route your B/circle receiver to a slant route
  2. Hot route your tight end to a drag route

Reads:

  1. Against most zone defenses, look to your X/square receiver on the comeback
  2. Against man to man defense, look to your B/circle receiver on the slant
  3. Your tight end on the drag is a good bail out option

Overview: This play absolutely destroys cover 3 and cover 4 defense.  It also works really well against man to man defense.

Formation: Pistol Trips

Play: Stick

Setup:

Reads:

  1. Your primary read every time on this play is the B/circle receiver

Overview: This play is great because of its simplicity.  It takes no adjustments and your receiver should be open every single time.

Formation: Pistol Trips

Play: HB Slip Screen

Setup:

  1. None required

Reads:

  1. Your only read on this play is your running back on the screen pass

Overview: This play beats any sort of zone coverage but will not work against man to man defense.  Make sure you have a fast running back subbed in for this play to be most effective.
