For the purposes of this video, that’s how I did it. I know some people Dart as a base block front side power because they pull backside, which is fair but this video was in response to a debate on pulling. For trap/down/belly, they are all their own series in wing T type systems. They should be their own I guess but based on this video criteria trap would be more power and down/belly would be pin n pull. Just a side note, I would try to avoid this problem or categorize based on your system. I would try not to carry all of that. I have found 4 base runs is about all you can do well (bread and butter plays) and maybe 2 what I call change ups (these are week by week plays that are in your system but you don’t run often but they just provide an advantage that week based on scouting)

Glad you like it!

Maybe that's why he threw so many pics 😂

Thanks! I appreciate it!

Sorry. It was just easiest to make the point I was going for with that front. In truth, some plays are better vs some fronts and this is an example. If you wanted it from a 4 man, it would be best with an on the line TE because you would need the TE to block on, T to block down on a 3, C to block back on the nose and then your guards could pull.

@@theassistantcoach I totally agree, but sometimes youjust need to be able to run it against unfavorable fronts. On our level (germany senior amateurs) we can't be picky. ;)

@@theassistantcoach I know it's a tough one, and I play really low level Football (german senior amateur), but we run Sweep from 20 personal, because we do one formation offense on purpose. ;)

In my mind, this is how to split them up. What were you looking for?

@@theassistantcoach Because it was entitled, zone "blocking" families, I had assumed that the blocking would be different for the different type of zone plays. My understanding of your reply is that the blocking is the same, and it's only the RB target point that's different. Gotcha. Thanks.

@@mjciavola Did you watch more than just the first minute? Or did you stop there or did you skim through? There is quite clearly footwork for OL discussed alund the 3:57 and 6:28 marks. Additionally there is conversation around minute 11 for the mid zone tactics. RB and OL must know what each other is doing in order to block effectively.

@@theassistantcoach Yeah, I saw it all. I guess I was looking more than listening. Thanks.

So looks like naked but is a pocket pass?

Either way, sounds like a good one!

I have always been a fan of vertical sets, so we do that, and depending on the screen it could be a quick set or a count (1001, 1002, 1003, GO!). Additionally, we want to be great actors. We want to punch just like regular pass pro and miss. We also want to miss to the correct side which is away from the screen if possible. I even tell the kids to throw some expletives in there when they miss to really sell it and that is the most fun part of any screen drill for them.

Thanks for the compliment. Unfortunately, I don’t have a good way to use number on Gap blocking. I do use numbering on Pass Pro and Zone blocking though.

Thanks!

Thank you explain blocking zone method your talking about with numbering system.. what about the KISS method Keep it simple stupid .. thats my method for my team .. loll. Do u have one ..

I have roots in Air Raid, so the Y is usually the best all around, Z is #2, X is best vertical/deep threat.

I appreciate that. For me it is 2 main things: 1) Buck pulls play side and backside OL whereas pin usually is just play side 2) Buck in a (traditional sense) usually has a misdirection or crossing action in the backfield, ie “cross buck” and pin usually doesn’t have that action. Both aiming points for the backs are similar, they typically read whomever is the first puller and make their move off of that block.

I appreciate the kind words!

I’ll put it on the list!

In truth coach, I’ll have to research the 3 high stuff because I just haven’t encountered much of it still even though it’s been hot the last 3 or so years

Typically that would just be 3man, 4man, and 5man respectively. The number being the number of down defensive linemen

Thanks! Love to hear it! What kind of topic would you like to hear about? May be able to make it a video if it’s in my wheelhouse!

You helped make it possible! I appreciate it! I also linked your page, hopefully you get some orders!

So glad to hear! I’m glad you like it!

Lmao exactly why I came

Simplicity of the read doesn’t tell the whole story. First, can he make a play in the run game? Probably not. Second, even if the read (I’m assuming you mean in the pass game) is easy in theory or at practice, it is an entirely different thing when he has to stay on his toes the entire game and wait for just a handful of chances at it. Running the ball 10-15 times in a row before a pass will lull a player to sleep. Lastly, it isn’t about X’s and O’s, it’s about Jimmy’s and Joe’s, meaning that the kid still has to perform.... I’ll take those chances easily with this.

@@theassistantcoach Understood. talking about the corner on the rw/te side. I know because i played against this offense , Their is a couple of reads you have to make and if youre a gamer, and a corner who likes making tackles this offense is fun to play against . Not trying to take anything away from the concept of the offense as a whole.

@@MrChrisjohnjay I don’t really see the relevance other than you played that position and liked playing against this offense... which is fine. Any well coached player will have a small amount of simple reads; that isn’t a unique thing. Many complicated reads creates slow players who second guess things... not a good game plan

Glad you found this helpful!

I’m not sure right off but those terms are typically used in run first offenses and usually old school. Maybe Wing T, Unbalanced Single Wing, Veer, etc type offenses. Generally, I would say quick is just an alternative to weak side vs strong side. Players that will usually be smaller and faster and need to pull as opposed to being big, less agile, and being a rod grader on the playside of gap schemes

@@theassistantcoach thanks for the help coach

It would have worked a hand full of times but overall I'm not sure it would have made a difference. It is hard enough to hide one guy on the OL much less 2 or 3 like the Chiefs needed to do last night.

I don’t have any books right off that I’d recommend. Did you get the other resources that I replied to you about on the other video?

@@theassistantcoach yes sir i did.. Ive already been doing research on Quarterback play.. But i love you videos on blocking assignments.. Im trying to find info on running plays vs different Fronts & adjustments

Here are some more of my platforms: Website: www.theassistantcoach.net Facebook: facebook.com/TheAssistantCoach1 Twitter: @Assist_Coach1 Instagram: the_assistantcoach instagram.com/the_assistantcoach/ CoachTube: coachtube.com/users/theassistantcoach You may find some more good things there. Also, I’ve made a sort of beginner course for coaching OL coachtube.com/course/football/coaching-offensive-line-the-essentials/6640548?track=4fdc64b560077d13a235f1f53d09d01d I would also check out anything you can find from the following coaches: Bob Wylie, Jim McNally (he is eccentric but a genius), and Paul Alexander. These three are some of the most influential coaches on OL play in my opinion. LeCharles Bentley has a good platform with some very good teaching resources as well. I would check out The COOL clinic. (COOL Coaches Of Offensive Linemen) On there website you can buy older clinic tapes for cheaper but it will have several of the guys I mentioned above. As far as quick guard/tackle, that is used in some offenses to designate pullers because they are usually smaller. The other side would be the strong side because they are usually bigger and maybe less nimble. They would typically flip sides based on play call. So, for example, on power, your strong side guys always double team and block down and your quick guard always pulls. Not every offense is set up in that manner. Lastly, here is my email if you have some more questions cody@theassistantcoach.net I know this is a lot but I really hope this helps!
