Quick Screens From Wing-T Offense

Quick Screens from Wing-T Offense By Darrin Sheffer                 When most coaches hear Wing-T Offense they usually don’t think about passing, however there are a few ways that a Wing-T coach can utilize his receivers on the edge.  Delaware Wing-T X-Now Screen One of the simplest ways to attack the boundary using the Wing-T is to use an X-Now Screen or Quick Screen.  Preferably, unless you have a QB with a rocket for an arm, I would rather use this play when the X receiver is to the boundary.  In the case of using the Right Formation we would like to have the ball on the left hash with the X lined up on or just inside of the numbers, this will give the QB a nice easy pass and the X a bit of room to maneuver.  I would teach my X to use the sideline and get as many yards as possible but you might have a different preference on the Now Screen. An idea that you could use...

Why I Like... Unbalanced Formations

Why I like… Unbalanced Sets (Photo by Coach Eien @bruceeien) If there is one thing that Dinosaur Offensive coaches love to talk about, besides running the ball, it would have to be Unbalanced Sets.  Old school Wing-T and Single Wing guys will hang their hat on being able to cause conflict with the defense by using Unbalanced.  However, it isn’t only old school coaches using it; many Spread coaches are seeking ways to use Unbalanced in their offenses.      Unbalanced Wing-T For my part I am most familiar with the Wing-T’s use of Unbalanced formations.  One common way to go unbalanced in the Wing-T is to simply go X-Over (See diagram below).  In the normal Wing-T formation the X is split off to the weak side of the formation, but in the X-Over we simply align him split to the Strong side/TE side.  One downside to this formation is that due to the alignment of the X, the TE becomes ineligible in the passing gam...

Simplified Six Man Box in the 33 Stack

Simplified Six Man Box For 33 Stack Defense by Darrin Sheffer https://youthfootballonline.com/3-3-stack-defense-base-rules-and-blitzes/ In my previous blog post on the 33 Stack Defense I discussed some basics on Defensive Line play and talked about 4 basic Slant Schemes used (Strong, Weak, Loop and Pinch).  Today I would like to expand on that topic and discuss the Six Man Box used in the 33 Stack which includes the three down lineman and three Inside Linebackers.  For those of you who are already versed in the 33 Stack this blog post may seem boring as I plan to keep things extremely simplified for any Stack Newbies out there.  In future Stack blogs I will get into more complex pressures and coverage.   Alignment While you can have your D-Line align any which way you like, we like to keep things simple with the Nose head up on the Center and both Ends lined head up on the Tackles.  This is to allow our D-Line to have the ab...
