  1. Whitehall Football Installing the Offensive Package: Offensive Line

  2. Offensive Philosophy • Establish strong inside running game • Few plays from a variety of looks • Force defense to cover entire field “I don’t believe God put us on this earth to be ordinary” Lou Holtz

  3. “It is difficult for a team to have outstanding morale, confidence and enthusiasm when it cannot look to the offensive line to establish the tempo of the ball game” • If the offensive line comes to the huddle with confidence in their eyes, the other offensive player’s confidence will rise

  4. Offensive Line Techniques and Teaching Progressions • Splits • Front Recognition • Stance • Blocks

  5. Splits Splits • 2 feet (adjustable by game plan) • Depth: we will align off the ball as much as possible, with helmet at belt of center • Defender has less contact time to shed block • Allows adjustment to defensive line movement • Provides separation from pass rush • Exception: we will crowd the LOS on the goal line

  6. Front Recognition • Covered or Uncovered • Technique call if Covered. Ex. “5”, “3”, “9”. Many of our blocking schemes require combination blocking, and making a technique call helps teammates in determining what they will do.

  7. Stance Stance • 3-point stance, with 40% of weight on down hand • Flat back, with toes pointed straight ahead • Toe-to-heel stagger • Weight distribution should allow you to both run block and pass set effectively

  8. Run Blocks Run Blocks Basic Fundamentals (must occur on every block) • 1st Step (Directional Step). Must be 6” or less, quick and decisive. Prepares blocker to engage defender. If step is too far, or too slow, he’ll never get second foot down before contact with defender. • 2nd Step (Attack Step). To cylinder of body of defender. The explosion of the block will take place with 2nd step firmly in ground.

  9. Zone-Scheme Blocks Man-Scheme Blocks • Base Block • Stretch-Double Block • Rip-Reach Block • Overtake Block • Base Block • Down Block • Reach Block • Pull Block • Trap Block • Double Team Block

  10. Base Block Backside Shade or head-up: "Tough" step 4" directly forward, getting it down quickly so that the second step is right at the cylinder of the defender. Playside Shade: "Wedge" step at a 45 degree angle to gain playside leverage, getting it down quickly so that the second step is right at the cylinder of the defender.

  11. Stretch-Double Block

  12. Stretch-Double Block

  13. Rip-Reach Block

  14. Rip-Reach Block

  15. Overtake Block a. If defender is going away, continue on a track up the field to the second level, finding a scraping LB with your eyes. If he gets ahead of you, you may have to "Rip-reach" him. Use inside arm to gain leverage, and control arm to square him up as you run him up field. b. If defender is coming towards you, you will assume the drive block from partner. Drive him upfield.

  16. Overtake Block

  17. Man Blocks • These entail portions of blocks previously mentioned • Details needed??

  18. Running Game • 23/24 Slam • 27/28 Stretch • 17/18 Speed Option • 33/34 Iso • 25/26 Counter • 21/22 Trap

  19. Pass Protection Concepts • Must match-up with potential rushers • “Man-Zone” concept • “80” call: playside is to right (“180” call: playside is to left • C blocks to backside, unless adjustment • Base Call: allows us to block 3 playside, and 3 backside • More than 3 to a side: make adjustments

  20. 1. 80/180 Protection Base Rules: block man across firmly on LOS, allowing no inside penetration. RBs have EMLOS. Adjustments: to allow better match-ups BOB, Away, Name, Four, Lucky/Ringo

  21. Pass Protection Fundamentals PPP--Pass Protection Posture Two Pass Sets we will use: • Lateral Set • Kick-Slide
