This is a great play to have, thanks for the detailed explanation. People hating on this play are not teaching it correctly or calling it in the wrong situation
Yupp...agreed. It's been my most yards per attempt play for years. I don't call it very often (max 2-3x a game...different variations each time), but usually it hits quite well.
Just gave my best attempt at a video specifically for your questions. Hopefully it's helpful. Let me know if this was what you're looking for OR if it's a swing and a miss 😂both would be appreciated 🙏
Yeah, this can be really effective, but depends on how you handle the OL and the backfield action. Essentially the problems are the corner and the will. Tackle can kick out the corner (needs to work very flat) and let's say you pair that with a pistol formation and have the first steps look like OZ to the trips, then you can influence the will, get him to commit and then the guard or center can get the right leverage on him. Safety is the next problem but you could even leave him unblocked as he'll be down field. I'd only run that vs a 2 high safety look. Hope that helps
I've actually had a pretty good amount of success with it in years past. Was one of our biggest plays last season here in Munich. The tricky part is getting the OL to know which guy is the force defender and who to kick out, but I will say that is something we've covered in walk throughs multiple times and still struggle with. Just takes time and reps, but I think the benefits are worth it if you can get the guys to understand it!
Well...every play is designed to work. Just a matter of how well you get your players to understand their roles. If you can't, agreed...don't call it. That's a pic6 or big hit waiting to happen. A variation of this was my biggest play last year (times called vs yards gained). So it can work vs. all fronts / coverages...again, just depends on if the guys understand it.

good breakdown. thx
This channel is great. Thank you for starting it.
Appreciate it! Let me know if there's any specific concepts you want me to go over!
@@americanfootballacademy1741 I've always been curious about the strength and weaknesses of different defensive fronts.
@@zareh805 ooh I like it. Alrighty, will hit get that one out soon. Appreciate the idea! 🤓

@@americanfootballacademy1741 Wow! Watching it right now. Thank you.
Hey I have a question. Have you seen someone run trips to one side but throw a tunnel screen to the back side receiver ?

Only problem is they hardly ever work.

I don't think that's necessarily true.
never call that unless it's given
