IntroductionIntroduction
This is a complete offensive system that is very logical and simple!
Once the language of the system is learned and installed, the possible play-calls and formations are virtually endless
Easy to understand and easy for players and coaches to learn
Simple to install in a short period of time Allows a team to make adjustments at anytime during a
game Extremely flexible
Philosophy of the SystemPhilosophy of the System Create a precision-timed passing game with
explosive capabilities, i.e. vertically push the ball downfield
Be able to physically run the ball effectively by double-teaming at the point of attack
Have the capability to make immediate adjustments during a game
Create an offense that is hard to prepare for because it is so multifaceted
Use multiple formations and a multitude of plays Take what the defense gives us most all of the time Spend quality time teaching individual technique
every practice
Play Calling PhilosophyPlay Calling Philosophy Make sure the players are fundamentally sound Spread the ball around to many players Call plays that get the players in a position to succeed
– if they make big plays, it’s a plus Put the ball where the defense is vulnerable Only audible when absolutely necessary Do everything we can to put the defense on their heels Keep the ball from the defense if necessary (a ball-
control offense) Push the ball downfield and score points (if you
decide you have to get into a shootout)

Four or Five-receiver SetFour or Five-receiver Set When we get into a balanced, four or five-
receiver set such as Dallas, Houston, or Maui, and we are running “mirrored routes”, we will call the routes as if they are a strong-side route combination call (the inside receiver’s route will be called first, followed by the outside receiver’s route).
An example of this type of play-call would be “Dallas Right, 39 F Stab King”. The protection call (King) will alert the linemen that the play called is a pass play, and not a thirty-series run play.

The Formation SystemThe Formation System
When counting both right and left formations, we have over 80 distinct formations that we can run plays from.– But because we are telling each player (X, Y,
Z, H, and F) specifically what to do, we can move players to any of 5 different positions, giving us the illusion of over 400 different formations.
This gives us the ability to take advantage of specific match-ups.
EXAMPLE:– We can move our X receiver to the F position,
and have one of our best receivers coming out of the backfield matched up with a linebacker.
– We can move our F back to the X position, giving us a good blocker on the perimeter matched up against a cornerback.

ShiftingShiftingShifting is a tactic used to either confuse
the opposition, or force them to run a “base” defense, by showing a particular offensive set, and then radically changing that set before the snap of the ball.
Shifting (Cont.) 2Shifting (Cont.) 2
We will call a predetermined shift by calling the formation that we want to shift from first, followed by the formation we will be shifting to, second. An example would be “Tank, Trey Right”. In this case, the term “Tank” would tell the players to line up in a “Tank Left” formation, and then shift to a “Trey Right” formation when the QB yells “Go”.

Another example would be in the play-call “Dance – Maui Right”. In this case, the eligible receivers will line up in a “Dance Left” formation, and then sprint to a “Maui Right” formation when the QB yells “Go”.

How to Call MotionsHow to Call Motions
Every eligible receiver has a specific “tag”call.
The “tag” occurs at the beginning of the play call to alert the specific player.

How the Play Is CalledHow the Play Is Called
Shift (possible) Motion (possible) Formation Play-call
– Blocking (master call in run game)
– Pass pattern (in passing game)
– Protection (in passing game) Snap count
– Red (on one), white (on two), blue (on three)
What the Call Would Sound What the Call Would Sound Like If It Were a Run PlayLike If It Were a Run Play Fly – near right – 24 slam – on white, on white –
ready break.– “Fly” would be the motion.– “Near right” would be the formation we want to end
up in.– “24 slam” tells the HB (2) to go through the 4 hole
and the blocking scheme is slam.– Vs a 50 front, the probable line call would be “Den”.– “On white” tells everyone the snap count is on two.
If a player forgot the snap count at the line of scrimmage, he would say “check – check” and he would be told “white”.

blue, on blue – ready break.– Zoom tells the Z receiver to go in motion across the
formation.
– Split left means we want to end up in a split left formation.
– 414 tells the single receiver (X) to run a curl route, the inside receiver on the two-receiver side (Y) to run a flat route, and the outside receiver on the two-receiver side to run a curl route.

– “Swing / v” tells the h back to run a swing route and the f back to run a v route.
– Queen tells the line to zone the quick-side and man the strong-side. This will release the back on the quick-side into the pattern right away. The remaining back on the strong side will check release into the pattern.
– “On blue” tells everyone the snap count is on three. If we wanted to audible to a different play, blue is the live
color since we called the count on blue.

Practice / Installation Practice / Installation PhilosophyPhilosophy
Teach incrementally rather than solely using a holistic approach.– Teach each player individual mechanics and techniques.
QB – Drops, WR – Routes, RB – Paths and Routes, Line – Run block / Pass protections.
Once each player knows exactly what to do, bring groups together – then the entire offense together.
This saves a great deal of time down the road and leads to better execution of the offense.– Start with 40 minutes of individual teaching time, which
can be reduced to 15 minutes as the season progresses.
Practice / Installation Practice / Installation PhilosophyPhilosophy
This is the foundation of this offense. Once each player knows exactly where to be and
what to do based on what he is told in the play-call, the play will be executed as it was intended every time.– Using only the holistic approach (just running plays and
coaching “on the run”) will lead to individual player breakdowns, and the offense will never be precise.
For example, a receiver will run the same route at different depths, or the QB will take different drops for the same pass.
This will cut down drastically on the productivity of the offense.
