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.
Hey coaches I was wondering if anyone had any handouts for the Base 4-2-5 "Robber" defense with any adjustments & any good safe Tackling Driils Thanks! coach Rogers
Pass Responsibility: Must stay inside #1 (C.P. — if you are Corner to FS side, you can play much tighter because the free safety is controlling #2. The split side corner must be aware of #2).
FREE SAFETY:
ALIGNMENT: 8 yards deep, inside foot back. Cheat over OT to #2 side late.
KEY: #2
RUN RESPONSIBILITY: 1. TE blocks down — fill outside. Think toss or power. 2. TE blocks out — think ball away. 3. TE cuts off DE — think A gap.
PASS RESPONSIBILITY: 1. #2 vertical — FS must lock on. 2. #2 drag — FS work over top. Look up #1 — opposite side. 3. #2 flat — look up #1 for curl or post.
ADVANTAGES OF "ROBBER": 1. Able to get FS to both sides of the ball. 2. Able to get control of #2 deep on any vertical routes. 3. Lets inside LB play run because #2 is always controlled vertically to TE side. 4. Able to use 5 DB's as a base package, which gives us better team speed. 5. Alignments blend in with playing our other two coverages (Cov. 0, and Cov. 1).
OUTSIDE AND INSIDE LINEBACKERS: ("ROBBER COVERAGE")
OUTSIDE LINEBACKERS (ROVER & WILL):
ALIGNMENT: 2 yards outside TE & 2 yards deep (if NO TE — 2 yards outside OT & 2 yards deep).
KEY: Triangle (flow-TE-QB).
RUN RESPONSIBILITY: 1. Flow to — sky support. 2. Flow away — check reverse, then fold. NOTE: On split end side if both backs flow into B Gap, then you must fill B Gap. Flow away, B Gap.
PASS RESPONSIBILITY: Once you read pass, work the #'s. You have flat, and any #2 receiver that goes flat and up.
INSIDE LINEBACKERS (SAM & MIKE):
ALIGNMENT: Sam is in a 30 technique (straddle outside leg of OG) 4-5 yards deep. Mike is in a 30 technique (straddle outside leg of OG) 4-5 yards deep.
KEY: Flow, to Guards.
RUN RESPONSIBILITY: (Sam): 1. Flow To — stack C Gap, unless both backs are in A Gap. Flow Away — A Gap front side. (Mike): 1. Flow To: - B Gap. Flow away: - front side A Gap.
PASS RESPONSIBILITIES: A. Sam: Read #3 (back). Back expands — Sam expands to look up #1. Back goes vertical — Sam must take him man to man. Back blocks — Sam works to front side hook zone. B. Mike: Read #2 (back). Back expands — Mike expands to look up #1. Back goes vertical — Mike must take him man to man. Back blocks — Mike works straight back to hook.
