5-wide pass pro

But, the best protection is a QB who can deal and run out of trouble on his own!

We use 5 wide receivers about 40% of the time.
The other 60% we are in one back.

As an offensive line coach this scares me sometimes. However, we have been fortunate to have only given up 5 sacks in over 100 pass attempts. When you have good receivers this helps because defenses do not want to man up.

The only 2 looks we have seen up front out of this is a 4-1 or a 3-2.

3-2 look is easy. BOB like Coach Campbell said with your guards dual reading from inside to outside. I call it Molly. If you have someone already walked up on the outside edge and the guards LB is not coming we will give a kick call. This will move the T to the outside rusher and the G over the E. There is really nothing else they can do from this look except the usual stunts and twist.

4-1 look- We will set the protection with the C on Mike.
Guards and Tackles will have someone head up.
We have seen a lot of twist and stunts.
You have to stay disciplined and give your bump calls when necessary.

Again if someone is walked up on the edge we will give a kick call if the M is not coming.

For example, If there is a FS walked up on the right edge are T will give a kick call. This will put the T on FS, G on E and C on 3 or 1 (depending on where he was)

If you have an outside rush and the M coming, PRAY! We have seen this twice. Got sacked once.

Hope this helps.

I am not the fastest guy at the best of times, and now carrying a knee injury............

Yeah no worries mate. Only ever left a game due to injury 4 times in 13 years 1) needed a knee recostruction 2) needed stiches in my chin (missed 2 plays) 3) broken ankle 4) this knee injury in our first game of this season, MCL strain, but only grade one.

Anyway, back on topic
I am normally mobile in the pocket able to avoid the rush and throw passes from all sorts of positions and thus the 5 wide has been working well for us. This knee injury has limited my mobility but with the class we have at WR i am able to get rid of the ball way before a rush is getting there.

I compete in the NSWGFL - New South Wales Gridiron League. A state league thats mostly based in Sydney (Australia)

Here's some hlights from last season if your at all interested.
