Play: WR Quick
Setup:
- Run this to your fastest receiver (Recommended)
Reads:
- Follow the blockers

Formation: Singleback Ace
Play: Skinny Posts
Setup:
- Put the A/X tight end on a drag route
- Put the Y/Triangle tight end on a drag route
- (Optional) Motion the B/O or X/Square receiver in a couple steps to make it appear as the WR Quick play
Reads:
- The initial reads are the two drags routes short
- Then look for the Posts deep over the middle, use the low-ball feature to throw it to the receiver in between the zone coverage and possession catch
- The final check down is the running back on the delay route
Overview: This is a great pass play to use in this formation. This formation is so run heavy having an effective pass play like this makes it even better. Again this keeps you from being predictable.
WR Quick is a great Goalline run
