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.
Coaches, how many pass rush techniques do you teach your defensive linemen. When I have coached defensive linemen in the past I have taught the rip, swim, bull, and bull into the swim. What other techniques do you teach your DL? Thank you.

No matter how many pass rush techniques are taught the key to a successful attempt to get the offensive lineman to get his hips out of parallel is the rush defender get his shoulders out of parallel to the offensive lineman as quick as possible. Coach CAmpbell
Coach Lou, We do not spend a lot of time on our pass rush stuff. Number one our kids love it, so when we teach it to them they practice a lot of it on their own. I also give seniors the responsibility to teach the under classmen some moves. I teach the bull-- bull jerk, the club rip, fake club rip to all of our kids and we work hard on them. some of them I will teach some of the following and they will teach each other on their own and or they teach a lower level kid. Rip in and Rip Out Whipper Straight arm spin Throw bye arm drag salute pin hook saw pop
I explain all of them in my video, I actually was really surprised when we made the video the kids new them. We spend time on these during special teams, if they are not in, before practice. And I make them do one of them during one on ones. I am surprised how good they are and how little time we spend on them. For some reason they all want to be pass rush experts. PGOLLA
Coach, We do a lot of different drills, but the everyday drills we do are the dominate lean, hand rolls, shoulder square drill, one vs one and two vs one drills. We are what people call a one gap team but I do not agree. Once we hit and lock out we can really play either gap but we are responsible for one. We will never tell our guys the only have one gap. We tell them to be a varsity football player control your gap then make plays once you see running backs feet. PGOLLA We have clips of some of our everyday drills on this site. They are in the video on D-line play
Hawkoption's on the money with that one gap attitude...that's exactly what I tell my kids. After you lock out, you should be able to make the play in either direction.

I'm glad to hear someone else saythat about gap responsibility. I tell my LB I don't give a crap what gap they run to... be a football player and make a play....... everywhere on the field. GREAT POINT!
