It is easy to be the last guy with the chalk. One of the hardest things about being a DW coach that no one talks about it that everyone changes their defense for you so it normally takes at least one series to figure out what they are doing. But if I was able to catch what you are doing, first thing I would do is widen my TE spilts which would give the B back a better angle to kick out your end while giving my TE a better down block on your tackle. If that doesn't work I would go to what I call slot formation which moves the wing in off the tackle and moves the end out to the outside. If you DE moves out with him it is going to be a long day. Good luck coach
You are right, and I agree with you. The trick is (at least at the Varsity level) is if you know that you're going to see a DW team during the season (even a single wing team), to have MULTIPLE answers as part of your base defense. There needs to be both an even and an odd look...and you need to rep it in spring and keep repping it...even if you need to roll it out on goal line or short yardage against another team just to get the reps. The mistake my team made last year was we had the "defense of the week" that stopped them for 2 1/2 quarters. They adjusted by hitting B gap and we didn't have a "defense of the week 2.0" that we had repped. The DC had it in his notes, but never repped it. We went to a 30 front from a 50, our backers didn't know what to do, and our line got ran over. We lost 13-7. However, we ran a single wing and the OC was too stubborn to make adjustment vs. this team. They were not intimidated by a single wing. They were very comfortable dealing with human waves and traps.
what app do you use to make your plays. would love to take some of the great plays from your play books I bought and replicate a few plays but alter them slightly to really utilize the talent on my specific team. Thanks for all the good content!
@@darceschultz2946 Maybe not if they throw to the split end. If they are not throwing to the Split End. You could have the Free Safety cover him. They probably split the TE for the reasons in the video. The side with the TE I think you could probably do the same as video. good question.
Tackling O linemen is defensive holding, try this defensive method and you give them the game with penalties. Unfortunately the only way to stop the DTDW is to be aggressive at the point of attack and be tougher than the offense. Old school football!

I run the DW wing also. It is a chess match sometimes.

We played a youth team named Vallejo Jaguars. They ran dw with fast backs and went undefeated.
yes I also have run a wide DW with two fast backs and went undefeated. it is a tough formation when you can run tight and a wide DW
How would this look for an 8 man defense?

I use ms PowerPoint.
@@coachparker Would the same discussion/rules apply to a double wing offense and only 1 TE?

Haven't had any issues with that. But thanks for your feedback. We do play old school football.
I don’t know about coaching def players to grab heels of oline. That is def holding
Coach what works for your team.
