Maybe it is too simple but the Eagles and Hurts seem to be abusing the QB sneak. I would love to see the details of what makes a good sneak. Some teams to be extra good at it.
The one thing I don’t understand is what makes power a good play and this a bad play. Are they both bad? Are they both bad specifically on the goal line?
Man I can’t believe I clicked on this video. My grandfather was a defensive tackle for the Houston cougars in the late 60’s and to just see his team, and his coach pop up in a random video gave me chills.
Without doing any research whatsoever, Id guess it would be goalline fade to anyone with at least a 6 inch height advantage, Power runs out of I Form/heavy formations, and the shocker, bubble/wr screens
I just graduated college in May and got a job as a sports reporter (my dream job since I was 16) and your videos have helped me so much with digging deeper into football games than just the stats. Especially as I try to photograph moments as they happen, being able to predict plays and where they’re ending up is incredibly valuable. You’ve helped me get some of the best photos and quotes from players and coaches I could’ve imagined, keep up the great work. Miss your cocktail recipes at the beginning of the videos, I’d love to see those make a return
Carson Palmer to Larry Fitzgerald for the overtime win against the Packers in the 2015 Divisional Round is still my favourite iteration of this play. Really makes me wonder if the Steelers running this play in 2013 is part of Bruce Arians' legacy as their OC 2004-2011.
Love your stuff Brett! I first saw this type of play run by Urban Meyer at Florida in 2008 with Tebow, Percey Harvin & Aaron Hernandez. They would run the speed option over and over with Tebow and Harvin, using Hernandez as a blocker from the H position, then when the Defense started to over react just toss it to Hernandez. It worked really well for them mostly because the Tebow / Harvin running threat was so great that the Defense HAD to respect it and commit to stopping it.
In 2008, in the SECCG against Alabama this play worked wonders against Saban's D. The following year during the rematch, the Gators first play from scrimmage was this same option pitch, except this time #32 Erik Anders was already grabbing Hernandez before he even got the ball. I vividly remember noticing that adjustment and thinking Alabama had the game won already.
This play always gets me in real time. I always need a replay to figure out "where the hell did the backside wr come from?". Freaking Andy Reid is an offensive mastermind.
The first time I saw K-State run the Power shovel was in 1998 season with Micheal Bishop undercenter. Funny it came back hard in the 2010s as a way to open the jumpshot toss Kstate ran
Love the shout out to late 90s/early 2000s Kansas State. I've always looked at those offenses with Michael Bishop at QB (along with Ralph Friedgen's offenses at Georgia Tech) as the precursors to the modern spread.
great video. numbers, arrows, facts, and the occasional comedic burn. Its really enjoyable to listen to a good speaker talk technical football. The game within the game is so damn compelling.
Oh, I love the idea of going over the history of a particular play and bringing it up to the present... This channel is just made to measure for that. Brett Sabol brings the history of the NFL back to life.
You should go watch tape of the Florida offense in Tebow’s final season there. They ran an even deeper version of this concept at all points on the field.
At 17:45 you can see Mahomes start jogging back to the sideline immediately after the shovel pass leaves his hand. Cocky bastard new the play would work immediately 😂
Love the football history elements of this video! We should all appreciate the cool concepts that have led to the current iteration of football we see today.
@@BrettKollmann da😂😂 that play got blown up about 0.0285 seconds in, barkley just remembered that he was “touched by the hand of god” and immaculately collected some ankles
I might be able to distinguish a Shovel Option when I see it next. This was a good mix of real-world examples, play design and drama to make it stick in my head. Thank You
Ha, my favorite came against the eagles back when alex was still QB here.. He ran it on a 3rd and short and kelce ran like 20 yards and jumpped into theendzonefrom over 5 yards out over a couple guys.
Your family is worried 😂😂😂 I love you man this is great. Plus now I'm gonna be waiting to see what/if any new variations the chiefs use in the playoffs
I've learned more from maybe 20 videos of yours than I have in over 40 years of watching football without them. Hell... I probably learned that from this one video. Superb job!
Shit like this is why I enjoy football so much. Through all the circus of horrible people running incompetent teams filled with assholes playing 4 hour games packed to the brim with commercials, there's just so much strategy under the surface. It's fascinating to learn about and I appreciate how well you teach it. Thank you Brett.
One of my favorites in a long time, have been wondering why the heck I only see the chiefs do this well for the last 4 years and love to finally see a breakdown of it. Awesome as always Brett
Actually, when when McNabb was on the Eagles, this play was constantly working for them too. So I guess it’s not a coincidence that both Andy Reid teams implemented this and did it effectively.
Way back in the day, perfecting and abusing this play non stop and several variations of it was the key to my HS winning the provincial championships 2 years in a row(yes Canada). We had a mobile QB who was basically a rb and also star rb... so it was unstoppable. This play when perfected is basically a free first down.
Great video. Thanks for highlighting the most entertaining TD and team to do it in football and explaining why it doesn’t work for the other teams. Andy Reid in KC is the COOLEST; people forget that even with Alex Smith he wasn’t afraid to make some pretty unorthodox plays happen. Thanks again!
I remember back in high school that we ran something out of 12 personell very similar to the shotgun sprint option shovel you were examining, but the shovel wasn't the #1 read. The blocking scheme was similar except the edge was blocked by the a TE. We'd run a flat-corner readonly the play and then the backside TE came underneath the block from the playside TE as a 3rd option for the QB. Most of the time it's a simple route for the WR running the corner but when it got swallowed up and the flat was covered, that inside option was usually there for 6
Talking to my girlfriends dad about this play a while ago. He was joking about how when it first showed up everyone was SCREAMING at the other team that it was somehow an illegal pass.
This play was Marty Mornhinweg's bread and butter with (With Andy Reid and the Eagles) for almost decade in the aughts and early teens. I think Brian Westbrook scored half of his touchdowns on that play.
I wish there was a comprehensive list out there of how much modern day offensive concepts that Snyder has his fingerprints on, either by refining concepts that came to him or sometimes with stuff that he essentially came up with on his own. He pioneered a lot of what we now just think of as commonplace spread option concepts at K-State in the 90's, and helped to innovate a lot of option concepts with how much he ran the QB (Michael Bishop is legitimately one of the most influential college quarterbacks of all time, and I will stand by that), and then with Klein in the early 2010's and the stuff like the jump pass and how that has turned into RPO's. Fascinating stuff.
"Based on my research" I would love to see an episode of how one researches the evolution of formations through college and NFL history. Is there a secret library of football knowledge that requires a secret password to enter?
Even though it’s turned into a bit of a gimmick, I still like it as a wrinkle to have if you run a lot of QB counter (likely narrows it down in the NFL, but at least for HS and College), and it can be useful if defenses have overcommitted and you can shovel it underneath, but with how Dallas schemed it for example, it’s so spread out that it’s easy to spot. Main reason I like it is (usually) at worse an incompletion
careful what you wish for. for all we know, that'll just cause andy reid to pull out some other obscure play design for those situations that'll take the league by storm over the next year and a half
This is why Bret chose a subject that is hexproof. Every other team has tried to run this play to little consistency and success in recent years. Yet Mahomes and Reid can keep doing this in different variants and it will work out for them most of the time. Even the Chiefs defense probably can sniff out other teams trying to do this against them on goal line and stuff it as well.
I remember when that play was brought back into vogue in the late seventies by Don Shula & the Miami Dolphins. It had not been in football for a long time (in football years). It was in a great game against the Jets. The play worked brilliantly.
I was actually just thinking about this recently and how bad everyone else runs this play compared to the chiefs. The crazy part is that it works so poorly for everyone else and most of the time it’s WIDE open for the chiefs. Nobody is usually anywhere close. Crazy how reid draws these plays up
Hey Brett! I’m so glad I found your channel! You’re the most insightful and entertaining sports analyst across any platform. You break things down so easily that even a child could understand how schemes work. Can you do a video on the Steelers, Kenny Pickett, and Matt Canada.
I definitely see a lot of teams trying to run this play nowadays I know the Chiefs didn’t invented but they made it look so easy that everybody’s trying it
Most infamous shovel ever: 2016 divisional round Packers Cardinals, first play of OT Fitzgerald catches a wide open short pass on a broken play and goes 75 yards down to the 5. Next play was a 5 yard shovel to Larry Fitzgerald to end the game. I’ll never forget that
The last segment on KC was very good. The execute it so well, even if the D is good and doing their job, they can't stop. the acme of great play design.
Would definitely argue that the FB chip version should not be categorized as the same play as it is much closer to the Shanahan Filter Screen tape (chipping player gets the ball, inside OLinemen releasing albeit very subtle bcs it was on the goal line), but the passing method surely is a shovel, and that would classify is as a shovel pass.
Big Red ran this play with McNabb and Vick consistently, maybe not as much from the goal line, but he was the one that made it popular in the early mid 00s
You are right in stating that this play has been around forever. I remember back in the mid 1970s, the Cowboys running this play 2-3 times a game with Roger Staubach and Preston Pearson. BTW they were the ones to bring back the shotgun formation.
Some frank & free UA-cam advice: To get potential viewers to watch your videos past the into, if gonna describe a play as "magical" and "mystical," don't voice it over clips of the play failing. This video is basically a teaching point on how to lose maximum creditability in 10 seconds.
I've seen a highlight video by NFL Films where Roger Staubach did a Shovel Pass to Preston Pearson against the Los Angeles Rams in the mid 70s that (if I remember correctly) went for a touchdown.

"If you are a coach and you call this you are actively making your offense worse."
I can't wait to see Hackett call this play this weekend.
Hackett's too busy letting Russ cook and not getting enough red zone attempts to get to try his own variation at the goal line situations.
LMAO 😂
wdym a success rate of 20% would be a massive improvement for Hackett
Hell call it on first and ten at their own 25
Hackett has already called it multiple times this year
"I don't know if it's necessary, but it's hilarious" is exactly the energy I want from my red zone plays
honestly they had me sold lol
As a chiefs fan I love not knowing what they’re gonna do at the goaline.
As a Giants fan I am so happy we have Kafka now and as we get more talent I'm excited to see more redzone stuff like KC
Makes me super nervous each time, never know when Andy Reid is gonna do something brilliant or mind numbingly stupid
I wish I was that way but Hackett is so fucking predictable
I don't think they did it in the Bills game
@@rjharrold2907 I wish we kept Kafka. Seeing what he's doing for you guys makes me think we lost a true gem
This is the epitome of why I love these film room episodes.
Would be great to have an episode about plays that are really effective at scoring in the redzone and why.
Good idea!
Without doing any research whatsoever, Id guess it would be goalline fade to anyone with at least a 6 inch height advantage, Power runs out of I Form/heavy formations, and the shocker, bubble/wr screens
As a Broncos fan, I would love that as well
Inside the 5 with a QB that has some wheels just call a race to the pilon, at any moment he can lunge for the goaline if he sees an opportunity.
QB sneak is the most successful play if I remember right.

As a Bears fan, Nagy tried this play so much in CHI. Obviously he learned it in KC but for whatever reason it didn't translate
I'm going to say it's the same reason a lot of things didn't go well for him with the Bears. He's not Andy Reid.
@@Ganondward I was coming on here to say the same thing! This play infuriated me, especially with David Montgomery right there!
@@Ganondward Also, the bears are and have been talent defecient.
That they made the playoffs twice under nagy is nuts.

God I loved Bishop. He was so before his time.
Michael Bishop before going to Kansas State went to Blinn College. Who else came from Blinn College to dominate college football? Cam Newton
"God's favorite offense, the split-back veer"🤣🤣🤣 Bret's on his best bullshit again, folks. We love to see it.

Very appropriate using Paul Rudd the Chiefs fan
Sometimes things just line up :)
I absolutely love this play. Its so much fun to watch because when it works it is a walk-in touchdown between the tackle box.
I've learned more from maybe 20 videos of yours than I have in over 40 years of watching football without them. Hell... I probably learned that from this one video. Superb job!
As an Eagles fan, Donovan McNabb threw a ton of these. Westbrook and Buckhalter. Reid loves this call.
Yea..Andy never met a pass he didn't like. To him this was a hand-off.
