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.
not necessarily, if you can expand the defender, a 4i is a perfect read because both your G and T can get a free release to the LB's. You just have to make sure that your RB track in inside enough so that the DT has to make a decision. VS a 3 tech, if you are going to double team him, you can either auto pull or give--the give is just a dive then-- or you can call a "duck" where the QB follows the RB through the hole and it turns into a QB iso. Pretty effective play if you can get movement on that 3 tech.

There is nothing that will show a man's true character like the 2 yard line.

The 4i with my experience with the inside veer which we have run for many years would call for a bump wall by the offensive guard. The guard will deliever a forearm rip to the inside shoulder of the 41 as he heads up to the next level. The tac kle does a loop technique as he tracks the playside Lber. The bump by the guard keeps the 41 from interupting the QB and FB mesh. Coach CAmpbell

As it has already been stated, there are a number of ways to deal with a defense that is aligning their DT's in 4i tech's. The loop scheme with PST is a great answer, especially if you have your PST wided his split and the 4i will move out with hiim.
Would the bump wall by the PSG slow down the read man too much, making the QB delay his decision on whether its a give or a pull? This might not be a huge problem for ride-and-decide teams, but what about teams that use the point method? Coaches that have used the point method have said that the dive back hits a lot faster on ISV opposed to ride-and-decide. Any thoughts?
Being realistic is the most commonly traveled road to mediocrity
In my opinion, you almost have to use (at least) point method-type thinking on inside veer to this defense...especially if you are running out of a split-back look. The QB has to know how to read the bubble during pre-snap reads to give him some idea of what is going on. I tell my QB's to look at the bubble to know if the dive is even going to be a possibility on this play. If the bubble is not there, that decision is gone, and he can fake it and focus on the next one. On the point of the "bump wall causing the read to take too long...yes it will slow that DT, but if he is slowed that much to where the QB's read is affected, then it should be a give every time. If the DT is being slowed that much by a forearm, then he can't make the play on the dive well, and you are basically guaranteed 3.5 yds, which is what this offense is predicated on.

Another play to consider vs a 4i technique is the open side Load (Lead) option scheme. This becomes a good play because your playside guard and tackle have an easy combo vs the 4i to playside linebacker. This seals the scraping backer and gives you alot of grass to run to. Coach CAmpbell
