Fold Blocks
Fold Blocks Give You Advantages As You Can Get Angles On Defenders Like Any Skill Fold Blocks Must Be Practice We Have Two Calls For Fold Blocks Jack and Jill Are The Two Calls If We Call Jack, The Outside Lineman Will Go First, And The Inside Lineman Will Step Around If We Call Jill, The Inside Lineman Will Go First and The Outside Lineman Will Step Around
This is the Jill Scheme Because Of The Fold Block By The Tackle and TE. The Tackle Goes First, Hence The Jill Call. The Tailback Gets Into Relationship And Calls Ball, Ball
The QB Reads The 3 Tech For His Give/Keep, and Pitches Off The Sam LB.
The Base Scheme Is An Alert Used By The TE Vs. A College 4-3 Base Tells The Tackle He Is The 2nd Tracker of the Mike And The TB Leads Up On The Sam
We can run the base scheme with the TB running a pitch path This puts the PST on the Sam LB
We Use The Base Scheme Away From The TE The Tailback Will Lead The QB Through The B Gap On A Pull Read This allows us to run midline versus a reduced front
Vs. The 50 You Can Still Run Midline It allows Your Back To Read The Block On The Nose The QB Reads The DT in a 5 tech.
One way the defense will try to take midline away is by having the Sam fall in on the QB. The Sam will meet the QB in the B gap for a short gain. This exposes the perimeter.
The Pitch Scheme Is Designed To Take Advantage Of A Sam That Is Falling In On The QB. The Pitch Scheme Tells The TE To Arc Release To The Sam. The QB pitches off the DE and we get the ball on the perimeter to the TB.
The defense will have the Will attack the frontside A gap to take the FB, with the 3 tech coming upfield. The QB will give the ball and the Will stops the FB. This leaves the defense vulnerable to the B gap on the backside.
Follow Opposite Is Designed To Take Advantage Of A Will Who Is Falling In On The Dive And Beating Our Combo After Riding The FB, The QB Will Pull and Follow The FB Opposite
This Is Another Great Complement To The Will Falling In On Dive. We Run This To A 4-3 With The Invert Strong The QB Rides The FB, Turns Backside, and Pitches Off The Backside DE
The defense will also have the 3 tech slam the guard and the Mike stem hard to the B gap. This stunt has the Mike beating the TE, and we must add a complementary play to defeat this.
Give Takes Advantage Of The Mike Stemming To B Gap This Allows Us To Get The Ball To Our FB With Two Zone Combos In The Middle
This is another way we take advantage of the Mike LB stemming to the B gap. The QB rides the FB and follows him through the 0 hole.
The QB Still Reads The 3 Technique For A Give Keep The TB Is Aiming For The B Gap You Can Run This With A Wing Also
The QB Still Reads The 3 Technique For A Give Keep The Wing Dropsteps And Gets Down The Line The Z Blocks The Corner
QB Reads The Five Tech For His Give/Keep Read FB Aims For Outside Hip Of PSG TB Dropsteps and Gets Into Relationship
Deuce Combo on the 3 tech to Will QB Still Reads 5 Tech TB Dropsteps and Gets Into Relationship
Deuce Combo on the 3 tech to Will QB Still Reads 5 Tech TB Dropsteps and Gets Into Relationship
PST release to PSLB, the Will in this case QB Still Reads 5 Tech The QB pitches off the 9 technique
This allows us to get the QB the ball following the FB. We run this when we see a stemming Will who is vacating the B gap. The QB rides the FB and follows him up in the hole.
Iso Option is run from our Ace Slot set. We run QB Iso with the TB in the slot becoming the pitch man. You can motion from trips to run this complement to veer option as well.
We run FB trap off veer action. We want to get the Will and Mike fast flowing to stop veer, allowing us to wall off the trap. The QB still reads the 5 technique and will pull the ball if the 5 tech sqeezes.
This is FB Trap versus an odd front or a 5-2 front. We combo the frontside one tech to the will. We would make a long call since we are trapping a 5 technique.
Outside veer is great versus a 50 front and a college 4-3. We read the 9 tech for our give read and pitch off the next defender. The FB can hit the B or C gap.
This is the Load Drill for the FB. If the Pitch key squeezes, the FB goes outside of him to the alley player. If the Pitch key comes upfield, the FB goes inside of him to the Alley Player. This must be drilled on a daily basis.
Load is great vs. a 4-4 as we get a combo on the 7 technique to the Mike LB. We base the 3, and pitch off the 9 technique. The QB flash fakes and attacks the Sam. The FB reads the Sam for his path as he has the first opposite colored jersey past the pitch key.

This is best case scenario for load option as we get two zone combinations on the front side of the play. The QB pitches off the EMOL and the FB blocks the alley player. We want to run load versus a 1-5-9 with the invert weak.
Load Weak is great versus a reduced front and the invert strong. This allows us to get zone combinations rotating to the backside.
QB Will Pitch Off The 5 tech, while the Offensive Line veer blocks. This allows us to get the ball to the perimeter from a four wide set. Speed is great to a 6 man box from an ace or spread look.
Setting Up Best Option, and Running Your Option Game From Multiple Formations Multiple Formations allows you to create matchmatch-up advantages Allows you to have simple checks for your quarterback Option On Me System Is Simple To Teach Formations Allow You To Outflank Your Opponents
Versus a 30 Stack, we run veer from a twins look. From a two back pro versus the above look, midline and load to the tight end are very good plays to run.
Versus a 4-4 Stack, you want to run load and lead to the strong side. You can also run midline. Motioning the Z receiver to a twins set breaks the triangle for veer option. With no inverts, you want to get the ball onto the perimeter.
Versus a 4-4 front with a 3 and 7 strong, and a 1-5 weak, get excited because every option is on, with midline being the best choice. You can use motion to break the triangle.
Versus a 1-5-9 to the tight end, load is a great play because of the two combination blocks on the play side. The FB would block the invert.
We flex the TE and put him in motion to the QB and to the play. We end up in our Trey Jill scheme at the snap. We will call 10-11 check in the huddle and run the play to the 3 tech
In this case, the QB has a 3 tech to the right, so he checks to 10 Midline. This is great when the defense is adjusting their front, and allows us to put the TE in motion.
QB Would Check To Veer To The 1-5 Technique Side. In this case he would check to 13 veer. The TE motions and tracks the PSLB to Free Safety with the PST. This is similar to two track two for the midline option.
The QB again looks for a 1-5 technique as this allows us to get two playside zone combination blocks. In the case above he would check to 18 load as that is where we have the 1-5 technique.
In the case above, the invert is to the playside, so we would want to run our option game to the TE. To break the triangle, we can motion the Z, or come out in a twins set, giving us a player to account for the invert.
As you can see, bringing the Z over into a twins set helps us to get a blocker on the Rover, who is lined up as a playside invert.
The Play Action off the Midline is a great play! The PSWR runs a post corner, the TE runs a seam, and the backside WR runs a skinny post. The FB runs a slice, and the TB runs a swing. The QB rides the FB and drops 3 steps.
The TE Quick is great to take advantage of an aggressive Mike LB. The QB rides the FB and hits the TE behind the Mike. The TE is looking to throttle down in the hole, not settle.
Play action off the veer is best run with a twins look to the playside. We run a post or curl wheel on the frontside, with the FB in the flat and the TE on a drag that can be converted to a post.
Play Action Off The load requires the QB to sell the load with two downhill steps before he drops. The PSWR runs a post corner, and the BSWR runs a post. The FB runs a seam, and the TE runs a Z out.
