Inside Zone Read with a Tight End in the Spread Offense 

Glad you like them!

Thanks for watching! Let me know if you want to see anything specific

Not yet, but something I’m working on!

We run out of pistol too. It's a great change up!

Cj Crawford It’s best to keep RPOs simple and not to overcomplicate things. When you keep it simple then it’s easy to get enough reps in practice to master the concepts

I have a video on coaching the mesh point which covers RBs footwork, aiming points, and keys to the mesh. If you haven't seen it yet, watch it here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IzOMy6wql3E.html I don’t have anything out on OL technique....yet

AgentOrange90 you can do it that way too. One thing to be careful of is the safety over the top being aggressive on the slant. If you see that happen, then you can read the safety by running the post behind him. Also, I’d might have the Z run a Fin route instead, so he doesn’t run to coverage

Great video coach! Do you think this concept could work if the TE is on the line ?

@@sjackson1 Thanks for watching! I wouldn't recommend these concepts with a TE on the line. It's best having the TE or the H insert/arc from the "sniffer" position

Hey coach-yes, I’ve always been a fan of how Joe Moorhead has used his TEs. I’ll be doing very similar stuff-split zone that are complimented with slip + arrow RPOs. I’d like to get to some zone insert to run some 3rd level RPOs but offensively we’re not there yet.

Thanks for watching all the videos. I appreciate it!

AgentOrange90 if the defense adjusts and brings the SS down into the box, then the defense has a +1 advantage in the run. When they do that, now it’s time to play action and hit them on the perimeter!

Thanks for watching and for the comment Michael. I definitely agree with you that if you have a valuable TE or FB then it's definitely good to mix up personnel groupings on the field. However, it can be difficult to find that guy and easier to operate out of 10 personnel. I've been pretty successful running strictly out of 10p at my previous school as OC. Thanks again for watching!

@@TheSpreadOffense You're welcome. Apologies for the speech to text crap-outs: I have gone back over the comment and made it more readable. I thought I left it here but I'll say this here again if even if I did: I read a book which I believe was entitled Football Offensive Plays; I read it about 8 years ago and I think at the time it was 10 years old book so quite a bit before the spread offense was proliferated throughout high school and college.. In the chapter on the "Ace formation" which was 11 personnel with the Tight-end next to the tackle with his hand in the dirt, Joe Tiller former head coach of Purdue University football explained not to use the Ace formation unless the Tight-end could both hang on to a defensive end in the running game and to defeat a linebacker in the passing game. He says if a Tight-end cannot do either, look for a different personnel grouping. Again, after watching your video a second time, he did not use the tight end as a sniffer but as a dual threat on a line of scrimmage could be a block or could be a pass receiver. He essentially wanted a mismatch at the position. Nowadays tight ends are much more athletic and with speed than they are with braun and grit. One of his key points was that it was going to be difficult to run the ball without a Tight-end because the defense could overhang both sides of the formation.

I call Ram for right and Lion for left

Yep; flood, snag, cross

@@TheSpreadOffense thank you.

Cj Crawford thanks for watching coach! I’m glad this has been helpful for you.
