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.
Does anyone one use a six tech for their DE in a 4-2-5? If so what do you teach differently? Is there an advantage/disadvantage to playing either one? Any and all info is appreciated.
We play the 6 & 7 the same. We MIGHT widen the 7 to a 6 on CERTAIN occassions (such as a TE/Wing combo) but the technique does not differ:
SEVEN TECHNIQUE: (TAKE A SHORT STEP WITH OUTSIDE FOOT READING TE – STAB WITH HANDS AND EXPLODE OUT OF HIPS). C GAP RESPONSIBILITY!
A. Vs. DOWN BLOCK OF TE: Squeeze TE over to D gap. Stay square and keep inside arm free. Control C gap and locate ball.
B. Vs. TURNOUT BLOCK OF OT: TE blocks out - dip inside shoulder and attack hip of OT. maintaining proper leverage. Keep outside leg and arm free. Bend to near back. Maintain outside leverage and bend to football.
C. Vs. TRAP (OR KICKOUT – BY ANY INSIDE BLOCKER): TE blocks out and OT blocks inside – point toe to OT, locating near back (if near back goes away, locate ANY OL coming inside out). Bend inside and treat kickout by near back and OL the same. Take out his inside shoulder with your outside shoulder. Come underneath kickout.
Depending upon what they are running at us, dictates our PSL alignment of our 7 tech. If they are going wide I will widen him to a 6 or even a 9 if the situation calls for it. If we widen him, we then move our TIGER BACK(SS) inside to stop the bleeding, or adjust the Sam accordingly. Just my way.
