One Back Power RPO from Trips 

Coach Bronson, That's fantastic coach. Glad you are having success. Let me know if I can help.

I agree. That's a wrinkle you can throw defenses with this play. You have the ability to read the EMOLS instead of the backer. We've tried that a couple of times, but weren't really successful at it.

Hey Coach, I'm glad I can help. I'm just trying to give back to this great profession. What made you want to change offenses?

We have just changed in the type of kids we get. A lot of tall lanky athletic kids and less Big kids. We felt we needed to spread the field and have a better chance to get our athletes in space. Last year was a little rough, but i didn't coach it well enough. we will be better this year!

The spread will get those basketball type kids out. I know it did for us. We went to the Spread after being Wing T. The first year was difficult. We only won two games. But we improved our scoring and by year two we made the playoffs. Good luck to you and let me know if you need any help.

hat is what I hope. We just won the state championship this weekend in basketball. The older kids did not play, but we have two twin freshmen who are 6-3 and crazy athletic and both are playing. One will be our QB and the other our best receiver. We went from 0-9 to 3-6 last year. Hope to do a lot better next year!

I mix in single wing basics to spread. I know you ran wing T but you can add what you know to what you learn. Makes learning easy and you trust calling the offense a bit more.I never ran wing T or single wing as my primary offense it's been a wrinkle I use against faster teams with less size. Best way to look at spread offense or the passing game in general is to simply win the numbers game and take what the defense gives you. I will run a slot bubble screen 100 times in a row if the defense doesn't adjust.. In the DC MD area defenses load the box and blitz B n gaps all game. It took me years to commit to this play calling style. I trust my qbs to kill plays if needed. I call two or three plays . I have the option to signal the check to my qb or let him make it on his own. If he checks to something I don't like I will kill it to one of 5 plays we can run out of any formation. These plays are called perfect plays and we practice them each practice against a scout defense. I give the coach running scout D a list of fronts and coverages I want to see each practice and we run the offense as if were in a game ( two coaches act as refs one spots the ball after each play the other is in charge of the play clock. We use 15 or 20 seconds for practice to create a sense of urgency presnap.) If you can block each front and take what the D is giving you you'll pick things up quick and win games. Route combos , rubs,picks, practice blocking with your wideouts everyday. If the defense sits back you have to be able to hit quick screens. Force teams to cover your slot. I start most games with teams using a safety thats 7 yards deep with his eyes in the backfield in charge of covering my slot. Even if it's zone it makes no difference the slot has a ton of room to work with. Outside wideout has to make a hard block on a athlete but if the corners playing off ( I haven't seen press coverage in a long time. We see corners play 3 yards off at most and 95 percent of the time the corners are 7 yards off ( DC MD area has insane speed and agility . I don't see the same defenses or schemes that you guys do. Teams walk backers to the A gaps , safety plays in the box like a linebacker, Corners play off , they dare you to throw. They stay in this until you abuse the flats with a rb,, te , slot. rb and t.e are never covered. Even with flats wide open and hell everything open it's impossible to complete a pass without a strong minded QB. There are years I have to run a simple run heavy offense because I don't have a QB who can mentally handle it. Make sure you got a guy you can build around. He doens't need to be super accurate with a riffle arm. He just has to get the ball there. Some of my best qbs were running backs that took well to coaching. If your qb can think clearly no matter what happens in the game then open the system up for him. If you're like me going into this spring season without a true qb then keep things simple and add what you can . The things you learn on here can almost be used in any offense. That's the beauty of this channel. Coaches blocking scheme is pretty much the same scheme I have been using since I was young O.C running I formation. Smart. Worry about first level . To many people leave holes for defenders to walk threw by trying to block the second level. If you get to the second level you gained yards. If you keep pounding the backer with a lead block or a hard runner you gain yards and soften up that backer. I hope this helps some way. I'm bored and itching for football. I figured I'd share random crap I know. I'll listen to any advice. Hell. I watch 9 man football and learn things. Arena league is the only football I won't watch. I've learned from watching youth coaches while scouting lil 6-8th graders lol. I'll shut up now. Best of luck buddy.

I love the dart concept. We are installing it this year. Going more gap-scheme instead of more zone style.

Hey coach. Thanks for watching. I'll make a video showing how we adjust against the Stack. I'll talk about how we attack the Stack with a 2 High Shell and against a 1High Shell.

Coach Markland, That sucks that you've loss your coaches. We've gone to a simplier version of the inside zone. We are working more horizontial displacement and letting our Running Backs make the line right. It's almost like wide zone blocking wise. The only difference is we have our running back aim for the play side A gap as opposed to the play side C gap in the wide zone. If they are blitzing every gap them I would be running some kind of pass - mesh, shallow cross, or something similar. Force them to fear the pass and that will open up the run.

Coach McElderry, I like it when the front side linebacker fills quickly because he usually gets blindsided by the puller. Some of our biggest plays have come from this reaction.

Hey Coach, Thanks for watching the video. I use the playbook feature in Hudl. It's a pretty amazing feature.

Coach, I went over this in the last One Back power video. All we do is run what I call 'Switch'. The Y now runs the snag and the F runs the 5 and in. The way we run it it becomes a pick route. The Y should pop open and if the QB throws it to him then it is almost always 6 points.

You could make a call and the guard blocks man on and pull the center

+Calvin Davis Coach, thanks for watching my video. It means a lot to me that you take time out of your day to watch my stuff. We still run the the play. If we are running towards a shade then we block down with the guard and pull the center.

+Ironman Dad I don't follow coach. So I run veer?

Sorry Coach... that did not come out write as I typed it on my cell phone...at my computer now. I was basically asking if you are more comfortable with veer concept (same side reads) vs. reading backside ends using RPO's. Again, sorry for the confusion.

Coach Dad, To me they are one in the same. The only thing I worry about is what my quarterback is comfortable with. That's the main thing. Do what he likes and what he success at.

Coach Peterson, Thank you for the kind words. It means a lot to me. And thank you for taking time out of your day to watch my videos. The best degree, I think, for coaching football is a math degree. Schools are always looking for math teachers so you should be able to find a job pretty easy. Plus, the degree has gotten me my OC job because the position that was with it had to be math.

Appreciate the response Coach, definitely a different perspective than what I'm accustomed to hearing from a lot of my peers. Makes a lot of sense too. Keep up the good work!

Just trying to help coach. Want you to be successful. Schools are always looking for math teachers. Let me know if there is anything else I can do to help you.
