Trap first man outside of hole w FB or G Suck LBs up and throw Stalk blocks on sweeps Sweep the short porch (guard/tackle side) Position defenses into 4-3 and ICE and BAM Pick on one man in the D backfield w/pass route Exploit false reads Timing patterns Make sure they can not Follow the Fullback Beat Blitz with dive, sweep and dump Beat 8 in the box with out routes, quick passes and sweeps Beat 5-3 with pass and strong side off tackles Beat 4-4 by putting them in 4-3 or sweep and dive the 4-4 Beat fast team by running right at them Beat teams by finding a weakness and pounding it
Key:
Keep it simple, and block for hold blocks for 10 seconds
Offensive Blocking Rules
Dive Blocking- Combo the tackles to LB. Dont hit anyone else on the line Bam Blocking- Full back takes first man outside the hole (inside out). Lineman block away from man getting bammed Ice Blocking- Line blocks nose up to away, FB leads thru hole and pulverizes the LB. Counter trap blocking-Off side guard hits first man out side the hole. Everyone else blocks away from man getting trapped Sweep- Hook blocks. End and power slot switch, end comes down and 4 back loops Sweep (stalk)- Sweep to slot, 4 back and end stalk block the backer and CB. Tackle hooks end
