TOSS PLAY
This simple play can be the best if
properly executed.

C = CREATE (We must create a gap at

the point of attack)

= PULL (Get as many people as

possible at the point of attack)

P = POP (The runner must pop

Through the point of attack)

Coaching Points
1. MINDSET your players need to believe that this offense is
UNSTOPPABLE and they take OWNERSHIP of it.
2. PERSONNEL they are the baddest player on the field, only the best
most physical can be on the team. Best run blocker, best kick out
blocker, best downhill runner.
3. ALIGNMENT OL foot to foot, FB aligns inside shade of and one yard
behind the T.E. The FB is two to three feet behind the FB. RB is four
to five yards in the I position.
4. Huddle after the play is called the offense SPRINTS to the L.O.S run
the play on first sound. (This must be practiced repeatedly/set
tempo.)
5. PLAYS (complete offense)
