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.
any views on end/ tackle v tackle / end stunts. We run with a #3 and #1 tech tackle. Which is easier to run & why? When would you run them? We are due to face a team that plays spread offence and likes to semi - roll their QB out. He's right- handed and like most young QBs prefers to roll to his throwing side
my thoughts.
T/E to #1 tech side: difficult as #1 needs to cross G's face E/T to #1 tech side: longer path for #1 ( and he's usually bigger and slower than #3)
T/E to #3 tech side: mechanics seem easier to this side E/T to #3 tech side: as above due to shorter path for #3
I would guess for us the E/T to the #3 tech is best as we expect the QB to roll that way ( we play #3 to our left). If we run T/E it would leave us weak at the edge.
On a team that runs the spread, line games, blitzes are always good. Go over film and check out what their tendencys are and plan accordingly. Try a zone blitz. See what hot routs they hit durring blitzes.
On spread teams, beware of the draw and screen. Most spread teams weve played seem to like to draw on 3rd (reverse psychology?) Again the films and scouting reports would be your best friend.
When running line games its important for your stunting lineman to stay close to the penetrating man and his blocker. Coach Golla calls this the "Double Rub". It keeps your looper from getting caught. Mix it up, and confuse the Offense. I like to use different stunts and blitzes alot. I want to force the offense to react to me, rather than the other way around.
