333(trap)

Hey men, looks as though we have made it too the 300 series which is awesome as it is my second favorite series. The 300 series is the bucksweep series which, every wing-t coach in history knows it. The slot-t 300 series has traps to both the strong and quick sides, a sweep to both sides and the bootlegs to both sides.

So, lets jump into the trap play 333.

This play is a trap to the FB up the right side of the line but it bends back to the left, so the trap starts left and ends right.
The SG traps first past the center.
The QG goes inside to get the linebacker.
The QT goes and gets most dangerous linebacker.
The QB takes the "300" steps which, from what ive seen are just a reverse pivot turning his back to the L.O.S.
The QB then hands the ball to the FB with one hand while faking the bucksweep to the HB.
The SM has #4 to #5
SE releases to #6
ST has nearest linebacker to #5
TB has #5 unless TBA is called. If TBA is called then fake 8HR.

TBA- same at 333 but with the TB faking 8HR.

Blocking variations on 234/236

Okay so, I've had a few questions about the blocking rules for 234/236 and why it's checked at the line.

234- the SG and ST - over, inside.
236- 5 technique- SG and SE double team the 5 and the HB Kicksout the first to show.

Hopes this helps guys.

228

The next and final play of the 200 series (except for a few special plays) is 228 "the pitch" this play has the exact same backfield action as the previous plays except the HB takes a step forward like 234/236 and then arcs out and blocks the most dangerous player.

The QB rides the FB into the line and then pulls the ball and pitches to the TB. Do NOT pitch the ball if an opposing color crosses your face.

The FB carries out his fake by "Rocking the baby" pretending he has the ball. Get tackled.

The TB motions to 1 yard behind the FB and then receives the pitch. Do not turn up field, this play is designed to hit the side line. It is a great 4th down play.

The quickside of the line throws downfield. The strong side scoops.

QB- Snap the ball when the TB is behind the FB and pitch after the fake. Sell it.

243 TT

243 Tackle trap is one counter play to 234/236. This is one of the least ran plays that i have seen but it is potentially deadly if ran right. (Heck, all Slot-T plays are potentially deadly) The backfield action is pretty much the same in all the 200 series with the Tailback running Tom motion, the Fullback hitting the 4 hole, and the Halfback starts in the same direction like he's going to block a LB or DE. On this play he takes a step towards the strong side, then cuts back towards the center. The QB keeps the ball on his hip and carries out the 200 series steps. The FB hits the 4 hole and fills where the strong tackle vacated when he started trapping. The line blocking is pretty simple. The rules are listed on the picture and are pretty accurate.

234/236

The first play that i will be discussing is the Fullback power play. This is one of the simplest plays because the footwork is real simple, but the play can be and is deadly if executed properly.

What makes this play hard to defend is the ability to change it at the line. When you call this play it's actually two plays. When the QB gets to the line he looks at the 5 technique. If there is one then the play is changed to 236 via the snap count. If there ain't anyone in the 5 tech then he runs 234.

If there is a defender in the 5 technique then the Strong end and the Strong tackle double team him and the Halfback kicks out the first person past the Strong end.

If there ain't anyone in the 5 tech then the Strong tackle and Strong guard double team and the Strong end blocks base. The HB leads through the 4 hole and blocks LB.

The entire Quick side of the line scoop and then throw down field.
