💥 Fly sweep off OZ with Y/Y trade


Nice design 👌 the two TE's trade pre-snap on the fly sweep, leaving the 5 technique unblocked and the edge secured. The run fake off outside zone adds to the misdirection. #spreadoffense

Center and Guard combo blocking vs Odd front


The center and right guard work a nice combination block, allowing the center to climb to the next level while the guard overtakes the nose tackle. #spreadoffense

Mesh | 3x1 closed


The inline TE breaks open on the mesh concept (crossers from both sides) out of a 3x1 closed formation. #spreadoffense

Counter Bash | TE Over


Counter Bash give, TE over formation creates an extra blocker play-side. #spreadoffense

Pull Lead QB Run


Good addition to the traditional zone read, here it's a designed pull RB lead for the QB on the keeper. #spreadoffense

Sight adjustment / Split the 2 high safeties


Sight adjustment route, receiver reads the voided area vs. 2 high split safeties. #spreadoffense

Boundary flood | X skinny post


Flood the boundary, forces the defense to match up and creates a one on one for the X receiver on the skinny post (8). #spreadoffense

QB trap with swing screen


Nice design, packaging motion swing screen with the QB trap run play. #spreadoffense

Late rotation, RB rail route


Here the defense is running a sting (safety) blitz and the offense finds a good match on the RB rail route vs a linebacker. #spreadoffense

Tempo catches the defense not ready


Here's an example of an offense playing fast or with tempo and the confusion it causes, the defense is not ready at the snap. #spreadoffense

4 receivers or 5 Strong Heavy


Formation heavy, ball is middle right to the hash mark. The 2nd receiver on the line cannot catch a forward pass, so they send him behind the LOS at the snap for a potential lateral pass. Catches the defense out numbered for a big play. #spreadoffense

📽️ RPO: Outside Zone Stretch | TE freeze glance


Nice RPO design off stretch run. The inline nub TE delays prior to running the glance route for a touchdown. #spreadoffense

RB Swing Sweep - 3x1 tight bunch


This is a nice design on a RB Swing route out of 3x1 tight bunch that turns into a extended sweep with designed blocking on the perimeter by the receivers. #spreadoffense

Yankee Concept - one high - man free beater: Double Posts with Deep Cross


Man free beater pass concept, some refer to this as the Yankee concept. Clear the field side with the twin receivers running double 8 routes, run the reduced X receiver on a deep crossing route. #spreadoffense



Tackle Wrap | Dart v. Tite front


The tackle Wrap or Dart scheme is a nice alternative to the traditional Guard pull schemes vs. a Tite front (4i-0-4i). The blocking angles or seal blocks on the 4i's are more favorable. #spreadoffense

Crunch | G Trap + H Wham 💥


Here's the 'Crunch' run concept, which combines a traditional Guard Trap and H-back Wham block. #spreadoffense

Using horizontal spacing to attack vertically


Here the offense extends it formation horizontally, executing the fake perimeter screen and 'Go' to perfection. #spreadoffense

RPO Give - Y Lead with Power | Backside glances


QB lives with the give here, good read as the backside glances are covered. RB takes it to the house, Y Insert with Guard Power. #spreadoffense

Y Hide


Y (TE) hide is popular in the low read zone, works here at midfield for a long gain. #spreadoffense

Slot fade smash


The inside to the slot receiver, smash concept. #spreadoffense

TE (Y) delay


Good design vs. 2 man, the Y delay to the middle hole when the defense is bringing pressure. #spreadoffense

Pick and roll at the goal-line


Nice change-up to the traditional 'rub' concept at the goal-line. #spreadoffense
