Anyone out there running Inverted Veer?
To clear up any confusion, the play I am calling inverted veer is a read play with a give to a RB or possibly a jet sweep motion back on a sweep path or a keep by the QB running up inside. Most teams I have seen running this are using a power blocking scheme. Down blocks on the front side with the backside guard pulling to wrap around and lead up onto the playside LB. The playside DE is left unblocked and is the read. If the DE squeezes down when the EMOL down blocks, the QB will give the ball on the sweep. If the DE widens with the sweep action the QB will keep the ball and follow the pulling guard off-tackle.
We are thinking about putting this in for next fall and are curious what steps and techniques anyone teaches to the QB. Also any tips for the RB that will help this play be more successful.
