Inside Veer TE Blocking

Against a 43 declaring the te as strong side you'll see teh 3 , 5 and 9 I would just arc to the sam or 9 tech and read the corner. As for rules I would just tell him to arc to the nearest outside defender. to me this isn't a real good option because you cant track the fs or the corner, take your pick. Draw up inside veer to the other side of the formation and you will see it looks like a much better play. to me anyway. I might suggest out. veer to the te side or lead option

Yes... if the defensive end was inside of the tight end, he would arc release to the INSIDE linebacker. This is done the same way, Coach Campbell teaches his offensive tackles if they get a 4i and they are running inside veer.

Hi Coach-
This year we had a lot of success using Air Forces blocking rules.

Basic rules for TE/Slot (first man ouside the tackle)

Vs 8 man front 44/62/ 53/50 Reduction
LOAD - TE/Slot blocks LB
vs. 7 Man Front
ARC - TE/Slot to #2
SWITCH- TE/slot to #1
Crack- SE cracks the defender assigned to QB.

1) Load, Arc, Switch, and Crack are all called by us. 24 load/24 arc/ 24 switch/24 Crack
2) We can always adjust during the game and go from a load scheme to theArc/Switch and change the pitch key.
3) We run veer drill everyday and it didn't take long for the kids to catch on. By the end of the year my guys could sight adjust at the LOS.

mg,

IF THAT IS THE WAY YOU RUN ISV, DON'T YOU FIND OPPONENTS JUST TAKING THE PLAY AWAY FROM YOU FROM THE GIT GO? BY THAT I MEAN, IF THEY KNOW YOU ONLY RUN IT TO AN UNCOVERED GUARD, ALL THEY HAVE TO DO IS REDUCE AND NOW THE GUARD IS COVERED AND YOUR NO LONGER THINKING ISV?YOUR NOT REALLY RUNNING THE OSV IF YOU BLOCK THE EMLOS . IT THEN BECOMES SOME SORT OF HYBRID, IF YOU CHANGE THE RULES. NOT BEING CRITICAL, COACH, JUST HAVE COACHED THE VEER FOR LONG YEARS AND AM A QB/OC/HEAD COACH NOW ENTERING MY 41ST YEAR OF COACHING. MUCH OF THAT TIME WAS SPENT COACHING ON THE HS LEVEL AND ENJOYED TREMENDOUS SUCCESS WITH THE VEER OFFENSE. NOT READING GIVE, PULL, OR PITCH ON THE DT AND DE WHEN TEACHING THE ISV BECAUSE OF TIME CONSTRAINTS WOULD INDICATE THAT THE VEER IS NOT YOUR BASE OFFENSE, AM I RIGHT ASSUMING THIS? IMO, NOT BREAKING THE RULES AND TEACHING THE TIME PROVEN METHODS THAT I OUTLINED ABOVE ARE TAUGHT IN THE OFF SEASON AND IN SPRING TRAINING AND IN THE CLASS ROOM SESSIONS WHEN TIME IS NOT A PROBLEM. THEN, WHEN YOU FALL OUT FOR THE REAL THING IN AUGUST, YOU ARE WELL PREPARED AND READY TO GO. NOW, IF THE VEER IS JUST ANOTHER OPTION TO Y'ALL AND YOU DON'T RATE IT ABOVE ANY OF THE OTHER OPTION CHOICES, THEN TINKERING WITH IT IS PERFECTLY UNDERSTANDABLE. JUST MY OPINION AND PLEASE DO NOT TAKE IT AS INTENDED TO BE CRITICAL OR RUDE IN ANY WAY, AS THAT IS SURELY NOT MY PURPOSE IN THE POST.

MG,

I respect your opinion, thanks for sharing that with me. We all have to go with what we know, and what we are most comfortable coaching. Love the ISV to the open side, it is a great play! Being an option guy, do you not incorporate power series or iso's in your running game to compliment your options? I also like
lead option to the open side, and run a predertermined pitch off that action and have the FB load on the 5
with the predertermined pitch going to the RB, of course. Where do you coach, what part of the country?
What level of play? Always enjoy sharing opinions with other guys from around the country. We are not going to agree on everything, but that is not the point. Thanks for your reply.
Coach Easton

mg,

I figured you had probably forgotten the power series, most good option teams are always going to have that in their compliment package. Sounds like you had a good run this season! Congratulations! How did they beat you, just had better athletes, out execute you, or what? If it was close, it won't call for any major adjustment and changes in the off season, and that is always nice to avoid if you can.

Coach Easton

Would you simply have your OT block Sam/Will? I hate to not have my OT blocking down on Mike...
