3 Air Raid Passes for Any 2-Back 20 Personnel Offense

[@Juliano_DJOL]

Really like that first set of plays from the Why Stick! We had some struggles to find our identity early on this season but have made big progress the last couple weeks! We normally run the Strong formation with a wingback and tight end on opposite sides, then we also have success in the Splitback Gun recently. The way we use the Splitback Gun is like Strong where we have a TE and WB beside the tackles, I pretty much consider that 5 WRs also gives us good blocking. Before on pass plays if we didnt keep atleast one back and either the TE or WB home to block we never had time to pass. But now Im hoping to be able to chip on both sides and then let all 5 go out on routes alot of plays. Plus when we wld have a 6th and 7th blocker it just left the other team with too many players to blitz I think! I installed the Why Stick with our team last night and tried to teach our QB to read the DE and figure out if he is blitzing or gonna pick up the RB/FB coming out of the backfeild which worked well so far! Helps with the pass protection and also leaves the edge open for our QB to take off alot of times himself! Ive been trying to teach our WRs and Backs to A- learn to block when other players catch the ball downfeild and the B- keep an eye for when the QB decides to get outside and run himself. Any tips?

At 2:15, yeah power-o married with Y-Cross is like peanut butter and Jelly. Baltimore Ravens made a living off it last year.

[@nobelpeaceprizeloser3242]

Ravens did a great job of motioning before the play concept, and making sure it was a zone look... Vs man it’s not as good but against zone it’s deadly. Ask the 49ers. 😂 ...they mostly did a trap-action pass protection with Y-Cross, Oklahoma’s the best team I see do it.

Love your work

[@onebackfootball]

Thanks coach

[@DoobyDular]

Good stuff, You can also get the 1st Shalo Penn St look with 95 too, with Halo 95 H-Angle or H-Under. Works great.

That’s the secret play-action video I did that I stole from some guy names Super Shane lol

[@CatalanConsulting]

Hey Coach can you break down Hero/Halo more detailed? What is the purpose of that formation vs straight up Split Backs and maybe some sort of 3x1. Where exactly does the H line up in Hero & Halo? I have seen all over the place. Also is the RB in Pistol or to the side next to QB. Again I've seen both. Appreciate any help Coach, interested in this formation but need to vet out if its worth having another formation just to have another formation. Cost/Risk vs. Reward... Thanks.

FWIW, and I hope this helps you, I linked your KZbin page to the Mississippi State football section on multiple platforms. I received multiple thank yous, so hopefully you have many new subscribers. I only wish the Mesh killed viruses on contact.

Coach, what are some of the things you do, when in 20 personnel, against cov 3 to protect the BS of any play you run?

[@onebackfootball]

Cover 3 should be awesome for you in the passing game…in 20 personnel they have to box commit. Love play-action 95 against cover 3

[@LUVVBANDS]

Make something for players/qbs

What kind of content do you want to see on the channel moving forward?

[@mikelindley7253]

Who love to see your thoughts on attacking the Iowa State 3 high safety tite front defense

[@wi54725]

Mike Leach recently confirmed that many ideas for this offense came from the spreading and isolating of defenders from the wishbone and inverted wishbone. He has hinted at a future where he could incorporate wishbone actions in his offense, and he heaped a ton of praise on Air Force last year after they shredded his WSU defense. I'd love to see how the inverted bone could be used with the air raid passing concepts. Triple option, regular option, counters, counter options, and the basic Air Raid pass patterns, many off play-action would be as dominating as the old Houston Veer was in the late 1960's. Maybe a team would score 100 points again.

Can you dive deeper into your number scheme for pass protection?
