Advantages of the Short Pistol

1. We have emphasized for years for the QB to step deep at 5

oclock or 7 oclock to mesh our triple play. The short pistol

accommodates our desire for depth by aligning the QB 2 1/2yards away from the center.

2. We reduce the box with our alignment of our slotsour slots

previously lined up 1 x 1 off of the outside leg of the tackle

when we were under center. Now they align 5 yards wide and

level with the quarterback. We did this to make the orbit

motion the correct angle.


14/55

3. Quick passing gameOur quarterback simply catches the

snap and is in position to throw the quick game.

4. It hits vertically quicker than the true shotgun or true

pistol and just a little slower than the under center

option game (we lost a yard on our fullbacks alignment).

5. It protects the mesh from being attacked.



15/55

6. It allows us to widen our splits to 3 feet in the A gap and 3

1/2 feet in the B gap which spreads the defense out and

creates great blocking angles and natural creases.

7. It forces the hand-off key to be very definitive in his angle

to attack the dive back. Consequently, it makes the read

for the quarterback easier.

8. It gives the quarterback more time to read the hand-offkey and then transition his eyes to the pitch key, because

the pitch key is wider due to our alignment and line splits.



16/55

1. A two handed snap with end-to-end rotational spin. We had

two mishandled snaps this past season in over 750 snaps.

2. The running back lines up with his hand five yards from the

tip of the ball. He must be in a three point stance to hit the

hole fast. Looks unconventional, but necessary.


17/55

3. The slots must be lined up on the same horizontal plane as

the quarterback. Your motion must be quick and at an angle

where the defense cannot recognize the goal of the motion.

undetectable motion.

4. The quarterbacks footwork is more pivot style footwork

rather than stepping on an imaginary clock.

5. The quarterback has to be louder in our no huddle option

attack, he is our communicator.

21/55

The Plays Value

1. It is two plays in one to each side of the football. Manypeople have called it a quarterback isolation.

2. 4 defenders vs. 4 blockers. By reading one defender,

it gives the offense a hat for a hat.

3. It often draws two point of attack defenders tomistakenly take the wrong back.

4. It is the best red zone play in football.

5. The defense must demonstrate great discipline to defend

midline veer.

6. It is a low risk play.

23/55

Inside Veer represents half of our Run

Game.

Midline Veer represents about a Quarter

of our Run Game.

That is how it all fits in our system.

34/55

Two types of Slot Motion, the first is the counter

motion. Slot motions toward the hand of the RB,

then inserts to the play side to block LB.


35/55

The other is the orbit motion. Slot motions like

inside veer, but has to insert in the B gap to

block play side LB.

Kick out DE

Must drive block & sustain contact

If he spins to the inside, stay on & log


38/55

The shaded area represents where we want to run

the ball, the OT needs to create space with his drive

block.


39/55

If this play is executed properly, that shaded areawill expand by the Drive block of the OT & the 3-tech

reading his key (OG), and going to get dive. That is a

big hole to for a run defender to have to fill.

41/55

The shaded player is blocked by a skilled player, the

OG releases to the NEXT LB down


42/55

If the shaded player was over the Center (as shown),

the OG would release to block that player.
