Formations/Motions
One of the defining characteristics of our offense is the we are very multiple and use
formations along with minor adjustments to gain better angles, leverage, and releases
into our route assignment. Formation adjustments also allow us to maximize our
personnel match-ups to create one-on-one situations or to create confusion by the
defense resulting in the possibility of an uncovered receiver due to a blown coverage.
The teaching process is easy requiring only about five minutes of practice time to
incorporate an entirely different package. It broadens our menu of plays without
having to teach new routes, protections, concepts, etc. A few simple terms allows us
to change our look. We are still running the same concepts throughout our system,
but by using various formations, it is harder for the defense to recognize route
combinations.
1. Doubles (80s)
2. Trips (60s)
3. Pro
4. Empty
5. Heavy
These formations are also used in personnel packaging throughout our play calling.
Every formation that exists in our playbook stems from these five base formations.
They can be tweaked through formation adjustment tags to established desired
formation through alignment.
Motion is another way to gain an advantage over the defense before the ball is
snapped. We use specific motions throughout to:
Basic motion calls are player specific determining what type of motion that will be
utilized. The quarterback controls ALL motions! If a player is out of position due to
3
motioning it is the quarterbacks fault. All motions are automatically off if the
quarterback uses MAYDAY call, which alerts the entire offense that the play clock is
under 10 seconds.

Basic Principles of Spread Offense
1. Protection This is the key to our success. Everything comes from
protection
2. Beat the Blitz Recognize It, Protect It, Attack It! A big play is about to
happen
6. Sandbox Rules Within each pass concept, you will have specific areas
in which you will
be assigned to get open. We call this your sandbox. Again, we must
see the big
picture and understand that you have to stay in your sandbox, if not our
spacing will
bring in unnecessary defenders.
7. Run After the Catch 50% of yards gained come after the catch.
Receivers will be
taught were to attack defense to maximize full potential of RAC.
21
receivers will have automatic adjustments based on the route they are
running.
Quarterbacks: Never throw the ball late down the middle!
22
10. Built in Constants There are certain things in our offense that do
not change
E. vs. Zone coverage, receivers are to find and settle into holes
between defenders, it is the quarterbacks job to find the
window and deliver the pass. Do not lead them into danger.

Pioneers Offense
Protections
Great protection is the most basic key to the success of our pass offense. We have a
protection first mentality when it comes to our passing game. Successful pass
protection is the result of EVERY member of our offense being on the same page and
executing his assignment. Main keys to successful pass protection include:
Our linemans knowledge and execution of our schemes, but more importantly,
having the ability to work as a unit with the mentality that No Body Touches
Our Quarterback
Our running back must know his assignment according to the protection
scheme. Majority of the time, he will be responsible for number 6 to number 7
according to protection. You are accountable for your defender! He is your
number one priority in passing game.
Our quarterback is the keystone to our success. He has to have the knowledge
to get us into the right situation by bringing in extra protection, changing the
play, or getting the ball to the right match-up to take advantage of one-on-one
situations to defeat blitzes. He also must know when to Live for Another Play.

Protection: 1 Concept: Slide
Our slide protection is used to protect against outside blitzes and overloads. In this
protection the RB has to double read the backers (6 to 7). We will slide from the first
uncovered lineman on away from the RB. The backside tackle will block the widest
rusher as a rule. The center or the uncovered lineman slides to the call.

Protection: 2 Concept: Play-Action
Boot
On play action protection we have to block aggressively selling run first do the
defensive line and the backers. The RB carries out his run fake and blocks by getting
tackled if he is not included in the routes. We are selling the run and leaving the BS
DE free for the pulling guard. On this play action protection we always block the play
that is called like a run without going down field.

Protection: 3 Concept: Fan
Our fan protection is used as a play action concept off of our choice package. In our
fan protection, the RB will make his Roger or Louie call according to the A-gap in
which there is no defensive tackle. If there is a three man front, the RB back must
used his best judgment. Regardless of what happens, the RB is responsible to cut the
defender in his gap. According to the RB back call, the center protects the opposite A
gap as everyone else up front fans out to protect their outside gap. The guards are
responsible for B gaps and both tackles are responsible from their nose to the side
line.

Protection: 4 Concept: Gap
We use this protection for some of our Quick game. This is a six-man gap
protection. The RB is responsible to cut the edge to the side of the call; Rip to the
right and Liz to the left. The offensive line will gap protect away from the call, with
the open tackle also cutting the edge. There is a call for the call side tackle to stay
big on big when there are two off the edge and no B-gap threat. This protection is
very physical at the LOS and will only allow heat off the edges. The protection will be
the same regardless of front. We are being responsible for a gap not a man.

Protection: 7 Concept: Semi
Roll
We use this protection for a semi-roll by the QB. It is always a six-man protection.
The RB checks and helps against the play-side defensive end. If the end is secured he
leads the QB and checks blitzes from the play-side D-gap to A-gap. The play-side
guard and tackle reach or man block without losing ground. The play-side has to cut
if necessary. The center, the backside guard and tackle reach and hinge. The
backside tackle has to control the backside defensive end. A Dog call will align the
RB opposite and will protect opposite, a full reach scheme across the front will occur.

Protection: 9 Concept: Man
We use this protection in all of our formational series. This is a five or six man
protection depending on the formation. We should be able to protect all five/six man
rushers with the QB being responsible for the sixth/seventh rusher. The RB is
responsible for 6 to 7 in the box or to the call side. The center always identifies the
Mike backer. The Mike call depends on the front call by the RB. Mike is either the
single backer in the box or the 2nd backer in the box away from the call. To block Mike
the center calls either a single block or a combo block with a guard depending on the
defensive alignment. The first uncovered lineman from the center on to the backside
will double read Mike to the outside backer away from the call. We have three
additional calls for the running back in the protection: Max RB will stay and protect
and not release for his route; Dog RB will line up away from the call but still protect
to the play side as if he was aligned to the call side; Chip RB chips the front side
defensive end to help the tackle before he leaves for his route (or other player
depending on game plan).

Protection: 30s Concept:
Quick
Our Quick Protection is based on our Man Protection and is a man scheme. This is a
five or six man protection depending on the formation. We run block the defenders
initially. This is a very aggressive block because we have to get the defenders hands
down. The RB will always protect to the side the QB chooses, Roger and Louie
will tell the linemen where he is. The center always identifies Mike. The Mike call
depends on the front call by the RB and his alignment. Mike is either the single
backer in the box or the 2nd backer in the box away from the call. To block Mike the
center calls either a single block or a combo block with a guard depending on the
defensive alignment. The first uncovered lineman from the center on to the back-side
will double read Mike to the outside backer away from the call.

Air Attack

Pioneers Offense
Quick Game (3 Step)
Our quick game (3 Step) is the Bread and Butter of our offensive air attack. We will
use this package anywhere on the field. This makes easy reads and quick decision
making for the quarterbacks and also allows us to get the ball in space to our
receivers to take advantage of their athletic ability. This is also a high percentage
completion percentage that should be around 80% to 85%. These are also the only
pass plays within our system that must be memorized. There are no basic concepts
with are 3 step game, just plays. We can run this package out of any formation that
we have in our offense, which is why this is our most productive package in our
system.
1. Most defenses have the mind-set that they will give up the short pass to make
sure that they do not get beat on the long ball. However, we know that 50% of
yards gained are made after the catch. With this in mind, a 5 yard completion
can easily turn into a 10 yard gain. Last time I checked, a first down is still 10
yards which means that we are still on the field that much closer to putting the
ball in the endzone.
2. They play Cover 2 with man to man principles underneath to prevent the 5
yard completion. The main reason a defense runs this coverage is to force us
to throw the fade. This is definitely an option and we will take this. However,
we also must be smart and understand that if they are in this type of coverage,
the defense is using 6 defenders to cover 4 receivers (4 man-to-man, 2 safeties
deep). This leaves the other five defenders to defend against our run game.
Involved with that include our 5 offensive lineman, 1 quarterback, and 1
running back (7 vs. 5, I like our odds).
3. If the two theories above do not work, the defense will go to the blitz theory.
We have no problem blocking 6 defenders if they decide to blitz us. The
problem lies with blocking 7. This is when the quarterback has a decision to
make: get the ball off before they get to him or bring in extra protection. We
prefer the extra protection. Remember, if they decide to bring 7 defenders, we
have one-on-one across the board. One mess up by the defense and we have
6 points.
Receiver Rules
A.M.F. If a defender is within 5 yard on a hitch or out route, then beat them
deep
39
D.A. This involves mainly the wings, if the outside linebacker flies across your
face to the flats without respecting your route, immediately open up to the
quarterback and look for the ball.

5 Step
The basics of our 5 Step Passing Game is ran in Concepts. These Concepts will
remain constant throughout all of our 5 Step Passing Game. These pass concepts
allow us to learn the base offense quickly and then incorporate each concept into
different formations. This allows us to very multiple by only making a few minor
adjustments.

Passing Concepts
1 2 Vertical Concept
This concept allows us to stretch the defense vertically toward the end zone. This
concept is a main staple within our offense. We will attack with this concept at make
safeties worry about getting beat deep. The main areas in which we will attack is 18
to 22 yards down the field. The area in which we will attack are: 4 yards outside the
numbers on both sidelines as well as 2 yards outside each hash. In certain
coverages, we will attack 18 to 22 yards in the middle of the field. We will also have
a low level control route. We like this concept because it can be successful against
any type of defense.
3 4 Smash Concept
This concept allows us to isolate a cornerback into making the wrong decision. The
basic Smash Concept involves a six yard hitch in front the corner and an 18 to 22 yard
corner route behind. The main reason we use this concept is the attack the outside
zones of the defense as well as making an easy read for the quarterback by giving
high percentage throws with an easy key to throw off of. We like this concept the
best against some type of two deep coverage, but it is also successful in Cover 3 and
Man-to-Man.
5 - 6 Screen Concept
This concept allows us to control the blitz and forces defenses to second think about
giving pressure. THIS IS OUR ATTACK OFFENSE! If we are successful with the screen
concept, it will be easier to run our entire offense. We are allowing defenses to over-
pursue and getting the ball, on a high percentage throw, to an athlete in space. Our
offensive lineman are getting down field and putting defenders on the ground. We
like this concept against heavy blitz teams.
7 8 Flat/Curl Concept
This concept allows us to stretch the defense horizontally. We will stretch the flat
defender to the sidelines and replace him with a curl route. At the same time we
have a low level control player running a box route in the middle of the field at five
yards. We are giving the quarterback a triangle read among three defenders. We will
attack 12 yards on each hash (curl area) as well as 5 yards along the sideline (flat
area). We like this concept against Cover 3 and Cover 4.
56
57
Pioneers Offense
1 - 2 Vertical Concept
Our 5 Step Passing Game is ran on concepts. In order to understand the BIG
PICTURE, you must understand the SANDBOXES for each concept. We do not teach
routes in our 5 Step Passing Game. Instead we teach sandboxes on the field which
represent the ending area on the field in which the receivers will end up. No two
receivers will ever have the same SANDBOX. This allows us to easily adjust
personnel, switch formations, or add tags in order to give the defense a different look.
This allows us to give the defense a different look while we are still running the same
concept making it easier on the offense to become more multiple if needed.

5 - 6 Screen Concept
Our screen package is a vital part of our offense. It gives us the tools to attack
defensive blitzes, slow down the rush, and allow opportunities to create big plays. All
screens end in 5 or 6 within our passing concept. The main type of screens that we
will use consist of: slip screen, bubble screen, and rocket screen. We will be very
multiple out of our screen package by using the multiple formations to get the ball in
open field allowing players to make plays. This part of our offense allows us to
release lineman downfield to show there athleticism. Basic Translation: Love the
Ground. On all screen game, we will cut block defenders as much as possible in
order to get defenders on the ground as well as make the ball carriers vision better
and allow him to get up field.
The most important part of our screen game comes in the form of our CHOICE
PACKAGE. This package puts together a basic run scheme with the bubble concept.
This is our version of the TRIPLE OPTION. We will force the defense to play its hand.
We will then use numbers to out-strength the defense forcing them to defend the
whole field. The decision is dependent upon the quarterbacks and his ability to
determine defenses from a pre and post snap reads to make the correct decision. We
use with our run game as well as our quick passing game with one goal in mind: GAIN
POSITIVE YARDAGE. Our overall goal is to average four or more yards when using this
package.

7 - 8 Flat/Curl Concept
Our 5 Step Passing Game is ran on concepts. In order to understand the BIG
PICTURE, you must understand the SANDBOXES for each concept. We do not teach
routes in our 5 Step Passing Game. Instead we teach sandboxes on the field which
represent the ending area on the field in which the receivers will end up. No two
receivers will ever have the same SANDBOX. This allows us to easily adjust
personnel, switch formations, or add tags in order to give the defense a different look.
This allows us to give the defense a different look while we are still running the same
concept making it easier on the offense to become more multiple if needed.
QB
Note: When using the Flat/Curl Concept, we are building triangle reads for the
quarterback and spacing the defense out forcing them to cover the whole field. The
triangle read makes an easy read for the quarterback by isolating a few key
defenders in order to dictate where to ball is being thrown.

change is when we start to add tags. The tags will tell you your knew sandbox.
However, every sandbox will be filled when it is all said and done.

Run Game
In order to be successful we must be able to run the football. Whether we run the ball
four times or forty times we must be successful within our schemes. Running the
football boils down to attitude, hard work and dedication. It is a blue collar job in
which we must roll up our sleeves, put on our hard hat and go to work. The main
focus of our running game is to set up our play-action-pass and keep linebackers feet
in mud. This opens up passing lanes down field. Our run game schemes are simple
and we run our base plays off of the inside zone, outside zone and speed option.
