Installing Today’s Hybrid Pistol Offense Run & Pass from Top to Bottom
This manual provides you with the full offensive line, receiver, and quarterback mechanics for installing each offensive play presented. Coach Campbell has left no stone unturned for implementing today’s Pistol Offense into your program.
I'd like to hear from more coaches who slant a lot in their 50. What technique are you teaching (gap or next man)? How does the slant effect the ends (slanting to and away)? Is the roll of your coverage tied to your slant? Thanks!
We attack 45 degrees into the Gap, and we React to a Man by ripping versus Pressure and Closing with no Pressure......Our Flanks(9techs) are incorporated with out direcions...If the Direction is 2 them they Anchor, if it is away they are C gappers....We align in a 6 versus a TE, and if the direction is away we come underneath into C gap.....We rotate the Secondary 2 toss/option action, our Directions do not dictate the Rotation....:rose;
I am assuming you do not drop an OLBer into the flat then. When you rotate your coverage, one safety comes down while the other safety goes deep middle?
The olb to the slant will be Free to play the flats on pass, or be the extra fitter on run....We will react to the flat away from the slant, but we will not have a defender just sit in the flat...If you do, the offense will give you a High Low route combo, and their Band will start playing....Especially with a 3 receiver combination.....Sending a player to cover the flat, and no action is there is like a kid going to Stag to his Prom on the wrong night..........
I am sorry coach, but I don't quite understand. If you do not predetermine your roll, could you a safety roll down into the same zone your OLBer is dropping into if he read pass? For example, if you slanted to the field and you got roll out to the field. Does this make sense?
Coach Wilson, this is a very valid point that you make...and this is why I do not like to predetermine the secondary roll....If this situation occured, we treat sprint out as if it's toss sweep...so even though we are slanting to the strong side, that olb will get up field and force the qb to toss the rock Quicker that he wants to, and the ILB to the roll would flatten out his drop(as if he is pressing the LOS to make a play on toss)
the safety to the roll would widen to the roll(looking 4 deep out by number 2)this allows him to secure the 10-12 yard route, and be in position to react to the 1-4 yd route.....Teams that sprint out will high/low your flat defender if he just sprints down into the flat once he sees the action....If you shoot me an e-mail, I could give you more clarification coachack@bellsouth.net:gift;
