Victoria memorial Gun Zone Read

Michael Farzley


In the zone read offense the quarterback has the freedom to call the options at the LOS based on his pre-snap read. The key is to see how many defenders are in the box and where the outside inverts are positioned. If there are 6 in the box (2 outside inverts) the best option would be a Midline option running to the Tightside at the 2 or 3 technique. If there is only 1 invert to the open side, the best option would be to run an Inside Veer to t he Open side. Finally, if there is no invert outside the Tight End on the Tight Side the best play would be a Load Option.



This offense allows your team to run an offense with tempo if you have a quarterback that can make good reads. If you don't have a QB that is capable of making reads quickly and decisively, however, it can be a tough offense to execute.
