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.
Our team is at a passing camp and some of the defenses have their CBs playing 8-9 yards off of our receivers. They do not move until we are 6 yards into our route. It appears that they are reading our feet and as soon as we break they come up hard and if our feet do not settle they bail to play the deep ball. We beat them with a hitch and go but they get hands on us as soon as we convert to the go part of the hitch and go. Do any of you guys teach this technique? If so how do you teach it because I am thinking of incorperating this idea with our secondary.
Never heard of it, and have never seen it. You might want to try to throw a slant right in front of them and see what they can do with that. They cant get their hands on the receiver when the ball is in the air, so they will be stuck flat footed and unable to use their hands.
"The harder you work, the harder it is to surrender" - V. Lombardi
If they are playing flat footed, then it should be easy money for your offense!
Try running a choice read or a go read. It's an easy completion with a DB that's bailing by crossing over.
Choice read - If you can get even with the DB or beat him after 10yds = skinny post. DB deep over the top after 10 yds = speed out to 15yds.
go read - Even or beat at 12 yds = go. DB over the top at 12 yds = drum roll the feet and come back to the QB.
That technique by the DB's is used to help them break up on short routes, so run deeper routes or short routes that separate from them, ie: slants, speed outs, etc.
