    As a college tackle, I decided to split exceptionally wide and to my surprise I found the DT followed me. He was taught to play outside shoulder of me. Him being a stud tackle really helped me being the smaller guy. This was a revelation to my O-Line coach. We the. Incorporated it. It made counter even more effective

    Love the video, I use to run GT only strong too for the same reason center blocking back on a 3 tech is a hard block. I started running it weak and the center would pull to kick out and the guard would block back on the 3 tech. Nothing changes for anyone else. I’ve had success to it.

      @@CoachMcKie I’ve been able to find kids that would be typically under sized for line (LB type) that could move. Once you teach them not to carry the snap as they move. It’s worked well. I always felt I can help a center in blocking if needed to get away with a kid that might not be your normal lineman type. The ability to pull the center opens a lot of options. Example we run down weak, guard blocks down on the 1/shade center kicks out the end.

    That’s a long pull for the OT with those wide splits. Ever consider having the OTs base block the DEs and pull the backside guard only?
    I LOVE wide splits. I coach a youth football team, we have wide splits, and I practically insert a Guard in the A Gaps if the defense is lined up there. We motion in an H Back to the A Gap as another OL if they stack the A Gaps. Blocking angles are so much easier for an OL with wide splits. You don’t have to move defenders to create holes, you simply cut them off. And it helps to neutralize stud DEs.

      That flip action or Jet away and then work downhill for the QB works well. We've added a wrinkle and haven't been able to test ours yet due to Covid-19 Protocols but we are thinking of running the PS#1 off on a Fade and BS#1 having a Slant. If the QB keeps his eyes up we want him to trigger it based on what he sees. Just haven't had the chance yet to test it

    I have a memory of a Vikings game during the Mewelde Moore era, primetime game, and their run game had been trash in that season and John Madden starts going off about how their splits were too tight to be able to run, no space to create a hole. Later in the game they started to split a little wider and suddenly they could run a bit again

    You have outs by your slots. Is that a to set up RPO or a run off block? Because it would be easy to have the slot block any overhang player, plus if you have receivers who attack defenders, I mean close on them fast and with purpose to make blocks, when they come off the ball to run a route the defense sees the same movement from your receivers regardless of closing on a block or stemming on routes.

    If you're a team that releases the TB a lot, I would align him more towards the OT. Then you don't have to worry about delaying him. He can take the handoff at full speed. It requires a plant and cut, but that's why he's the TB.

    • @CoachMcKie
      @CoachMcKie  Před 3 lety

      That's true and we tried it. Our TB didn't like it that much. Preferred the jab step more. Or just a slight pause before going. So I let him do it that way.

    We usually have the RB "Show Hands" when we run it without the Jet Action to the BS. We tell the RB to open his hands like he is getting a Toss, that usually will bring an aggressive Safety and or DE who will jump that action.

  • @robertmosher7418
    @robertmosher7418 Před 3 lety

    Why do spread coaches call running back counter when there is no counter? In most offenses that is power trap. There is no hard movement to one side and break back. They are just coming straight to the hole. It is not a counter. A counter would be if you bring a jet sweep and have the QB ride that out two steps and then pull and runs the ball the opposite direction to the play side.
