I/V Vs 3-3 stack

SOLID ANSWER COACH CAMPBELL!!!

Coach Easton

Coaches,

I need to add some additional info regarding the 3-3. They also have 2 OLB/Rovers lined up over our slot area, so in essence, you may also call it a 3-5.

When we slot out one of our slotbacks, they just move the OLB/Rover out their with him, still leaving the stacked LB over the DT.

Look forward to everyone's input on this....

TIA!!

Coach LO,

Tks for the reply. Do you have an email address I can contact you at?

Tks!

Coaches,

We block ISV exactly the way Coach Lo describes and we have had a lot of success with it.

I am worried about our center blocking a good nose alone. How do you handle this? Why not double the nose with the PSG and inside release OT to MLB. TE comes down on OLB. Doesn't the OLB have to take QB if they are playing cover 3?

Coach
Have your playside Tackle arc release from the 4 tech and block the OLB then the PSG blocks the MLB. Base the nose and then have the PS slotback block the DE. Have your QB read the 4 tech then get out to the edge and read the SB block. If the DE stretches get up into C gap. If not get out and pitch off of the CB and the SE to crack safety. This is a great way to run vs. 53 same as a stack and keep the QB safe from a DE charge. This is run out of a flexbone set. Good luck.

warrior777,

PST releases into the B-gap. If the stacked LB plugs, then he blocks him. If he scrapes over the top, then he works upfield to the FS.

PSHB releases in between #1 and the SS/OLB/Rover. If the stacked LB plugs, then he works upfield to the FS. If he scrapes to him, then he blocks the LB.

Essentially, the PST and PSHB have the stacked LB to the FS. QB reads DE for the dive/pull and the SS/OLB/Rover for the keep/pitch.

If I'm not doing a good job of explaining myself here, then let me know. I'll see if I can draw up a quick Power Point to illustrate it better.

Our best play action? Seam. BSWR runs a streak. PSHB runs the seam (up the hash). PSWR runs a streak. QB pokes the ball into the belly of the RB and takes a 3-step drop, hitches up and delivers the football. His progression is Seam to PS Streak. If the secondary tries to rotate the BS safety to the seam, then we can run the BSWR on a post or post-corner (depending on how the BSCB is playing it). Our protection is a version of slide protection (we call it off-gap). I'll break it down...

BSHB---orbit motion, turn back to BS D-gap.
BST---BS C-gap
BSG---BS B-gap
C---BS A-gap
PSG---PS A-gap
RB---PS B to D-gaps
PST---PS C-gap

Thanks for the run down. I have been so busy I have not had a chance to get on and read your post. Soon I will be on here quite a bit more. Hopefully, that will not be for a few more weeks.
