JUST A LITTLE OFFBEAT RUNNING PLAY I FOUND SEEMS TO WORK FOR 7-15 YARDS SOMETIMES. OUT OF THE WEAK I FORMATION THE SLANTS PASSING PLAY, SNAP THE BALL AND HIT THE LATTERAL BUTTON THE QB WILL TOSS THE BALL TO THE HB. (IF HE TOSSES THE BALL TO THE FULLBACK YOU HAVE HIT THE LATTERL BUTTON TO FAST)MANY TIMES THIS PLAY WILL GET THE BALL OUT SIDE OF THE CONTAINMENT LEAVING ONLY THE CORNER TO BEAT, BUT SOME TIME THE DEFENSIVE END WILL NAIL YOU FOR A 2-3 YARD LOSS.

Ok, I have run for 3 seasons now almost exclusivley up the middle, lemme see how to describe lead blocking, ok:
1. If the FB has like 70+ SPD, then he's gonna be GONE, and you'll have no chance, best to have a FB with like around 60 SPD.
2. Do not hit turbo boost at first, follow the FB wherever he goes, even if it is a little away from the play, he will block SOMEONE.
3. When he blocks someone, move to the side of them by either straight-arming, or by juking, but do NOT run into your own FB, you'll get tackled.
4. FB's AWR comes into play big time in how he follows the play design and who he chooses to block, so high AWR=well-placed blocks.
I like more than any other run the off-tackle blast, cause depending on what your line, your FB, and the opposing LB's are doing, you can cut it up inside, plow ahead, or bounce out, and if you make the right choice you'll always make something happen. It helps alot on all this stuff to have a jumbo-sized HB, mine is one of those draft guys at 6'0" 246, and he just blows over people sometimes, or drags em a few yards.

Audible Tips
try and set up 3 or mor aud in the EXACT same set and formation.... when you aud your guys will not have to re line but D will shift and they may sell out their coverage sceme or maybe you can catch somone out of position plus they can not read your play as easy... you can always go back to your origanal play with audible (jump) TRIANGLE.... this works good in hurry up as a 7th audible..... a good one is the WEAK I- BIG - ALL STREAK--- set up in shotgun 4WR or singleback 4WR. this will spread your d out in a dime on nickle.... audible will bring everyone inside...#1 WR is TE2...#3WR is FB... #4WR TE1.... if D stays spread in zone hit WR1 quick for a 15 yd gain or let him keep going and try and go up top deep with a ballon pass...if the blitz he should be open deep 1-on-1 w FS..if they go MAN try WR#3 out of FB pos. and juke to the side line CAREFUL he is the R rec even though he is on left side.....try it and let me know Try other BIG set passes in AUD they can be BIG gainers with your regular WR in instead of 2 TE. Pick your fav singleback BIG set play that you feel real solid in your reads ...it helps to know where your WR are going
