  3. Principles of Our Offense Our offense is designed for PERFORMANCE. Performance is easier said than done, so we want to ensure we equip ourselves with as many tools to ensure that each play is run with the utmost efficiency, increasing our rate of success and reducing the amount of things that could go wrong. To do this, we will live by one simple tenet on offense; “Not only do we have to do things RIGHT, We have to do them BETTER than our competition!”. 1.No shortcuts to success – We will be play fundamental football Fundamentals of offensive football are blocking, catching, and running. Practice doesn’t make perfect; Perfect Practice makes perfect! If you are sure of your job on a play, the chances of you fouling it up under the pressure of competition is not likely. We will only run plays that we have mastered in practice. If you cannot make a practice, you are limiting your ability to execute on game day, and lessen your value as a trustworthy contributor to our team’s success. “Practice the way you play. Play the way your practice” 2. Playing to our strengths and advantages We will play the cards we are dealt to our advantage. The “cards” we have on any play will be WHEN the play starts (snap count) and WHERE the ball is going (play call). Our opponents have as little time to prepare for us, as we for them. They can only prepare for a few of the concepts we will present them with. Because their “football experience” may not differ that much from our own, they will only be good at only one or two different defenses. With our formations and motions, we will take them out of their comfort zone and make them adjust to US. WE will instill as much anxiety and apprehension as possible before the ball is snapped. “Speed is a great asset; but it’s greater when combined with quickness” 3. Don’t make the game harder than it has to be - Keeping concepts simple Our offense is meant to LOOK complicated, but be extremely simple. It will not require phenomenal athletes or dominating strength – it will require a desire to learn and compete. Our playbook is designed to bring in a few similar techniques and using them in various ways. The bottom line is getting the football in the hands of players and setting them up to be able to make those plays without any extraordinary effort. It will be the coaches job to put the players in positions to make plays. It will be the player’s job to execute. The simpler the plays, the more likely the players will execute aggressively and confidently. “Football is fun! Fun football leads to positive football, which in turn becomes winning football.” 4. We will prepare for the WORST case scenario Being ready through preparation is the best way to avoid making a bad situation worse. It is our job to be able to execute a plan that provides us an ‘escape’ in any event. If our run game is stopped, we will have a solution in the pass game that emphasizes our personnel strengths and minimizes our loses. Knowing you have an “ace in the hole” means that you never have to lose your nerve in a difficult situation. This allows us to maintain our focus. “We will prepare for the worst, but hope for, and expect the best.”

  4. Principles of Our Run Game We will excel at three basic plays that do not require super physical strength or tons of football know how to execute and have success with. This offense is designed to make our jobs of advancing the football for first downs and touchdowns as easy as possible while at the same time, making it difficult for a defense to get comfortable in knowing what we are doing on a given play. This hesitation on the defense will prevent them from being aggressive and attacking our formations. This will allow us the opportunity to make plays. The main component of our offense this year will be the ZONE series that requires an initial push from the offensive line moving together, allowing four blockers on two defenders to the side of the play. Instead of one designated hole for the runner to run through, they will have two easily visible paths to choose from. From the base zone play, we can add several “little” things to it for different looks and eventually and eventually adding in a wide zone play, known as “stretch” and also a counter. Our VEER series is a quick inside option run play that is centered around attacking the alignment of a defense by running to where the widest gap remains on the defensive line; We call this the “bubble”. This play leaves one defender unblocked who cannot tackle all of the three potential ball carriers. For the sake of simplicity, we’ll call the ball carrier rather than having the quarterback make reads or decisions on how to distribute the ball, at first. As our proficiency with this play increases, we can add more dimensions to this play to fully realize its multidimensional threat. Our JET series is another play that is designed to attack an area of the field faster than the defense can get bodies to the ball carrier. The Jet is a speed sweep where any one of three ball carriers will go into motion before the snap then take the handoff while in stride for an immediate gain near one side of the field without having to make any cuts or avoiding defenders. After developing a level of confidence with the basic jet play, we can build off this series with misdirection, reverses, screens, and passes to further confuse the defenses. All of these basic runs have variations built into them to attack any defense’s weakness to over pursuing the original play in the series. All of these plays can be run from several formations which we may be able to run this year. All of these run series offer play-action passes (fake runs) to take advantage of areas of the field that defenses will vacate by aggressively attempting to stop our run game. Get ready, it’s going to be a fun season!

  9. Protection LT LG C RG RT LT LG C RG RT QB QB B B 90 (right) protection 190 (left) protection Quick passing game will consist of a two-digit called system. The first number indicates the protection used, the second number ( 0 – 9 ) indicate the route structure. The digit “0” will be for called routes. All two-digit packaged plays will indicate this is a right oriented read / play. We will use turn back protection AWAY from the call. Therefore, a two-digit route structure would be TO the right, requiring protection to protect the backside (left). The remaining back(s) would release TO the call side in protection. Conversely, a three-digit packaged route would be to the LEFT. It would be oriented to the left and be read to the left. The backside now becomes the right side. The line would turn back to the right and the remaining back(s) would protect to the left. 1 = Hitch 2 = Out 3 = Slant 4 = Stop 5 = Turn 6 = Smash 7 = Post / Short 8 = Fade “B” tag = backside designation to run a route package contrary to the ‘callside’ package

  10. Quick Passing Game “seam” “seam” “get open” 6 yds 6 yds LT LG C RG RT 1 QB 3 2 1 2 91 / 191 Hitch The Hitch will be run by the widest receiver (#1) regardless of position. The receiver will read the alignment of the corner. If the corner’s feet are 6 yards or deeper, the receiver will convert the route to a fade route. The receiver will press the corner vertically then make a sharp break outside at 6 yards depth to the fade on the top of the sideline numbers. The receiver should look for the ball on their outside shoulder outside the sideline numbers. The second receiver from the sideline (#2) will run the seam route up the field. The second receiver is responsible for clearing the 2nd defensive player from the outside and press the vertical seam. If the receiver is re-routed or jammed, they must work to get their release and remain inside their original seam lane. If the 2nd defender turns their shoulders outside (to take away the hitch) the 2nd receiver should turn their shoulders inside and look for the football immediately. The tight receiver or 3rd receiver (if present) will run a “get open” route that breaks at a depth of 7 yards. The receiver can break into any route anywhere within the ‘tackle box’ from a depth of 8 yards to 15 yards, so long as they do not interfere with the seam route being run to their outside.Ideally, we would like the #3 receiver to attack the middle of the field. These route packages are mirrored (duplicated on each side) and the quarterback will be given the side of the field to read. The quarterback is reading the alignment of the corner. If the corner is tighter than 5 yards, the #1 receiver will automatically convert to a fade route and that is the route we want to throw outside the sideline numbers.We want to throw hitches against loose or “soft” corners (corners who align deeper than 5 yards from the outside receiver). The quarterback’s primary read on the Hitch route is the #2 defender (flat defender). The quarterback reads the shoulders of this player. If the defender’s (#2) shoulders stay parallel (basically back pedaling) we want to hit the hitch on the third (plant) step. If the defender’s (#2) shoulders turn and get outside of the seam receiver (getting into the lane of the hitch route), the quarterback should immediately throw to the seam receiver.

  11. Quick Passing Game “seam” “seam” “get open” 6 yds 6 yds 4 yds 4 yds LT LG C RG RT 1 QB 3 2 1 2 92 / 192 Quick Out The Quick / Speed Out will be run by the widest receiver (#1) regardless of position. The receiver will read the alignment of the corner. If the corner’s feet are 6 yards or deeper, the receiver will convert the route to a fade route. The receiver will press the corner vertically then make an elongated release, starting at 4 yards depth. attacking the outside shoulder of the corner. At a depth of 6 yards the receiver should make the distinct break outside, flat, parallel to the line of scrimmage, squaring up to the quarterback. The second receiver from the sideline (#2) will run the seam route up the field. The second receiver is responsible for clearing the 2nd defensive player from the outside and press the vertical seam. If the receiver is re-routed or jammed, they must work to get their release and remain inside their original seam lane. If the 2nd defender turns their shoulders outside (to take away the out / flat) the 2nd receiver should turn their shoulders inside and look for the football immediately. The tight receiver or 3rd receiver (if present) will run a “get open” route that breaks at a depth of 7 yards. The receiver can break into any route anywhere within the ‘tackle box’ from a depth of 8 yards to 15 yards, so long as they do not interfere with the seam route being run to their outside.Ideally, we would like the #3 receiver to attack the middle of the field. These route packages are mirrored (duplicated on each side) and the quarterback will be given the side of the field to read. The quarterback is reading the alignment of the corner. If the corner is tighter than 5 yards, the #1 receiver will automatically convert to a fade route and that is the route we want to throw outside the sideline numbers.We want to throw outs against loose or “soft” corners (corners who align deeper than 5 yards from the outside receiver). The quarterback’s primary read on the out route is the #2 defender (defender over the second receiver). The quarterback reads the shoulders of this player. If the defender’s (#2) shoulders stay parallel (basically back pedaling) we want to hit the quick out on the third (plant) step. If the defender’s (#2) shoulders turn and get outside of the seam receiver (getting into the lane of the out route), the quarterback should immediately throw to the seam receiver.

  12. Quick Passing Game slant slant slant 6 yds 6 yds 5 yds shoot shoot LT LG C RG RT 1 QB 3 2 1 2 93 / 193 Slant The Slant will be run by the widest receiver (#1) regardless of position. There is no conversion of these routes in this package. The out-most receivers in this package run a route that begins with an outside stemming / vertical pressing release, then a sharp and distinct break towards the inside (heading toward the far side goal post). Both the #1 receivers will run a on outside releasing stem, then breaking inside at 6 yards while the 2nd receiver to the three receiver side will also run the slant,except at a shallower depth. The 3rd receiver ‘strong’ or the 2nd receiver ‘weak’ (basically the inside-most receiver on your side) will run the ‘shoot’ route. This route is a two step and break version of the quick out route. Against man coverage we would like to press the defender vertically first to create greater separation as we break to the sideline. Again, the quarterback reads the defender over the second receiver. If the defender’s (#2) shoulders stay parallel (basically back pedaling) we want to hit the shoot on the third (plant) step. If the defender’s (#2) shoulders turn and get outside of the seam receiver (getting into the lane of the out route), the quarterback should immediately throw to the slant as the receiver turns into the break.

  13. fade fade Quick Passing Game seam break out break out 6 yds 6 yds LT LG C RG RT 1 QB 3 2 1 2 98 / 198 Fade The Fade will be run by the widest receiver (#1) regardless of position. There is no conversion of this route.The out-most receivers in this package run a route that begins with an inside stem to create a greater cushion between the deep defender and the sideline. The 3rd receiver ‘strong’ or the 2nd receiver ‘weak’ (basically the inside-most receiver on your side) will run the ‘break out’ route. This route is an inside pressing vertical stem, which makes a sharp break flat to the sideline at a depth of 6 yards. Against man coverage we would like to press the defender vertically first to create greater separation as we break to the sideline. These route packages are mirrored (duplicated on each side) and the quarterback will be given the side of the field to read. The quarterback is reading the alignment of the corner. If the corner is tighter than 5 yards, the quarterback will throw the fade route. The seam route of the #2 ‘strong’ receiver holds the deep safety from helping on coverage of the fade. If the corner is deeper than 6 yards, the quarterback again has the option of reading the defender over the #2 receiver. If the defender’s (#2) shoulders stay parallel (basically back pedaling) we want to hit the break out on the third (plant) step. If the defender’s (#2) shoulders turn and get outside of the seam receiver (getting into the lane of the out route), the quarterback should immediately throw to the seam receiver.

  14. Quick Passing Game slant slant slant 6 yds 6 yds 5 yds short short LT LG C RG RT 1 QB 3 2 1 2 97/ 197 Short The premise of this package is to use the width of the field to our advantage pitting two receivers against one defender, namely the defender over the #2 receiver. We want to make sure that whatever formation we align in, we align with the field width in mind, exaggerating the split between receivers, so that the next available defender is a great distance away. The #1 receiver will run the “short” route, with the intention of replacing the position of the #2 defender at a depth of 3 – 4 yards. The receiver will attempt to get to this position as fast as possible, then throttle down to look for the ball or another crease in the coverage. Versus man coverage, we want this receiver to ‘stem’ or give an outside move to generate separation between themselves and the #1 defender. The #2 receiver(s) will each run a “Post” pattern, breaking at 6 yards depth and heading for the opposite side of the field goal post. If there is a #3 receiver, they will run the exact same route, only breaking shallower at 5 yards. The quarterback will take a 3 step drop (or even a quick 2 step) and read the #2 defender. If the #2 defender retreats, open / turns shoulders to take the #2 receiver, the ball must be immediately fired to the #1 receiver. If the #2 defender opens their shoulders away or comes to the line of scrimmage, the ball will be fired to the #2 receiver, breaking on the post.

  15. Quick Passing Game “quick smash” “quick smash” “get open” 7 yds “hitch” 7 yds 6 yds “hitch” 6 yds LT LG C RG RT 1 QB 3 2 1 2 96 / 196 Quick Smash This package is meant to marry the concepts of 90 / 191 Hitch but adjusted to victimize cover 2 type coverage. The #1 receiver will run the hitch without a read – they will run ONLY the 6 yard hitch. The receiver will run the 6 yard stem then plant and whip their head around to receive the hitch pass. The #2 receiver will run a route identical to their “seam” route, but will make an aggressive plant and cut at 7 yards to the outside. The aiming point for the “quick smash” for the #2 receiver is the difference between the deep #1 defender and the short #1 defender. The tight receiver or 3rd receiver (if present) will run a “get open” route that breaks at a depth of 7 yards. The receiver can break into any route anywhere within the ‘tackle box’ from a depth of 8 yards to 15 yards, so long as they do not interfere with the seam route being run to their outside.Ideally, we would like the #3 receiver to attack the middle of the field. The quarterback takes their 3 step drop and reads the play side corner. If the corner backs up or gives ground up at all, the ball is to be fired to the hitch. If the corner presses or remains shallow on our #1 receiver, the ball should be placed between the deep (safety) defender and #1 (shallow corner) defender to that side

  16. Quick Passing Game fade slant slant turn 6 yds 6 yds shoot LT LG C RG RT 1 QB 3 2 1 2 95 / 195 Turn This package that provides us with an answer against the coverages that we will face that are geared to stop our hitch passes as well as attacking the weaker pass defenders on the field (the linebackers). This package allows us to get rid of the football as quickly as possible. This package is different than any other because it is not mirrored. There are front side routes and backside routes. The backside receiver(s) run slants. The front side receivers (3) run their various routes. If only two receivers are to the call side, the remaining back will run the #3 route. If there are two backs in the backfield, the “A” back will initiate the #3 route. The #1 receiver runs a fade. Because of this, they should line up wider than any other formation to isolate the play side corner at a width of 16 – 18 yards. We want to press vertically from the snap to cut the corner off from breaking on any underneath routes. The #2 receiver, or the next receiver from the sideline, runs the “turn” route. It is important that this receiver is able to get off the line of scrimmage with little or no interference (re routing / jamming). If we cannot get off the press from the #2 defender, we have no route. Getting up field at a depth of 6 yards, they will simply turn around and look for the ball. Once turned, the receiver can flatten out toward the sideline. Once the receiver catches and secure the pass, they are to pivot and turn and get UP field immediately. The #3 receiver or the inside most receiver, takes one or two steps from the line of scrimmage then aiming (shooting) for 4 yards depth to the sideline. Once reaching the ‘flat’ part of the route, the receiver snaps their head around to look for the ball. Once securing the ball, the receiver turns up field down the sideline. The quarterback will take a 3 step drop and again read the #2 defender. If the #2 defender WIDENS (to the shoot), then the “turn” route is open and the ball must be fired immediately to the #2 receiver’s outside shoulder pad.. If the #2 defender’s shoulder turn and he hangs in the area, the quarterback fires the shoot route immediately.

  17. Quick Passing Game “seam” “seam” 9 – 10 yds 9 - 10 yds “get open” LT LG C RG RT 1 QB 3 2 1 2 94 / 194 Stop The “Stop” package is extremely similar to the the 98/198 Fade package, but differs with the #1 receiver running the “stop” / deep drop out. Nothing should look different to the difference, and we want the #1 receiver to sell the fade route, then drop out at the last minute. The #1 receiver will run the vertical pressing fade route to a depth of 9 –10 yards, then violently whip their head around, stopping to break back outside toward the sideline and toward the quarterback The second receiver from the sideline (#2) will run the seam route up the field. The second receiver is responsible for clearing the 2nd defensive player from the outside and press the vertical seam. If the receiver is re-routed or jammed, they must work to get their release and remain inside their original seam lane. If the 2nd defender turns their shoulders outside (to take away the hitch) the 2nd receiver should turn their shoulders inside and look for the football immediately. The tight receiver or 3rd receiver (if present) will run a “get open” route that breaks at a depth of 7 yards. The receiver can break into any route anywhere within the ‘tackle box’ from a depth of 8 yards to 15 yards, so long as they do not interfere with the seam route being run to their outside.Ideally, we would like the #3 receiver to attack the middle of the field. These route packages are mirrored (duplicated on each side) and the quarterback will be given the side of the field to read. The quarterback should deliver the ball to the outside armpit of the #1 receiver at a depth of 9 yards.

  27. Roll Out Protection LT LG C RG RT LT LG C RG RT QB QB B B West (Left) protection East (Right) protection Our deep passing game will be premised on getting outside quickly to make quick decisions and stretch the defense. We will rely solely on sprint out passing to minimize our liabilities in protection before the ball is thrown. We will aggressively step play side (the side we are sprinting out to), with the backside tackle gaining depth and fanning the last defensive linemen outside. The remaining back will become the additional edge blocker to ensure the quarterback can get outside of the pocket. By relying on sprint out passing, the quarterback is afforded multiple options to minimize our risks in the passing game. The quarterback can legally now throw the ball away, run with it, or choose between two or three receivers to throw to. The Sprint Out passing game is premised on five concepts that can be adjusted to attack a multitude of defensive coverages. To facilitate learning and identifying each package, we will refer to each package after a major city along the Gulf Coast following Interstate 20. Dallas – Mesh package Monroe – Triangle package Jackson – Smash package Birmingham – Cross package Atlanta – Over package We will just call the formation, West / East, and the package to run…. Ex. “Ace – F Motion – East Dallas” “Ace – East Birmingham” “Kings – Z Motion – West Atlanta”

  28. Roll Out Passing Game 10 - 12 yds 6 - 8 yds 5 yds 3 yds LT LG C RG RT 1 QB 3 2 1 2 “Dallas” “Dallas” is the basis of our deep game passing. It is built on the “Mesh” principle of a play side flood of receivers in close proximity. The Dallas package affords us multiple throwing options regardless of coverage used.

  29. Roll Out Passing Game 9 – 10 yds LT LG C RG RT 1 QB 3 2 1 2 “Monroe” “Monroe” builds off the ‘Dallas’ package premised on building a triangle read for the quarterback and straining defensive coverages.

  30. Roll Out Passing Game 9 – 10 yds LT LG C RG RT 1 QB 3 2 1 “Jackson” “Jackson” alters the routes presented thus far with creating two inside and two outside receiving options at various levels of the defensive coverage.

  31. Roll Out Passing Game 9 – 10 yds LT LG C RG RT 1 QB 2 1 2 “Birmingham” “Birmingham” is built to create a mesh / cross in the middle of the field. This concept affords itself to initiate a rub / pick of the middle defender(s), freeing up one or both receivers in a seam.

  32. Roll Out Passing Game LT LG C RG RT 1 QB 3 2 1 “Atlanta” “Atlanta” is designed to create a three-level crossing read to stress a defense. We want to reach the perimeter quickly and attack one side of the field at various levels.
