Gun ~N~ Run Objectives ATTACK: We will play a fast break, up-tempo attack. We will force each opponent to react and adjust to our offense. We will always use intelligence and conditioning to our advantage. GATA: We will “GET AFTER THEIR ASS!” This is the cornerstone principle of Gun ~N~ Run Football. ELIMINATION OF TURNOVERS: It’s tough enough to beat your opponent. Take away the negative plays to ensure that we don’t beat ourselves. TURNOVER RATIO is the number one factor in winning and losing college football games. SCORE: The object of our offense is to score. We will score first, fast, and we will finish the fourth quarter. We will maximize the Red Zone and we will take advantage of every turnover that our defense creates by scoring points. TEAM: Foremost, we must be come a true team. On and off the field, we act as one, united as a whole group, where together we can accomplish greatness.

Offensive Goals To outscore our opponent. VICTORY! To score six times a game. To out-hit and punish every defense we face. To average 400 yards of total offense. To be one of the Top 5 offenses in Texas.

Philosophy Attitude Spread the Field Throw to Uncovered Receivers Hurt the Blitz Game Planning

Play loose, Play fast, Play hard! Attitude Play loose, Play fast, Play hard! Play with poise through the good and the bad. HAVE FUN! Aggressive basketball on grass mentality. Wear ‘em out . Out hit and out physical our opponent.

Use Formations and Motions Spread the Field Use Formations and Motions Forces the defense to declare their coverage and blitzes. Easier for the quarterback to read coverage. Helps the run game (5 to 6 simple plays). Create mismatches.

Uncovered Principle Make Them Cover You Up By Alignment, Motion, and Shifts. By Bubble Screen. **This forces defensive adjustments that help in protection and in running game.

Uncovered Principle Rules Any receiver that is not covered up and can catch the ball and gain 4 yards. Only throw on 1st and 2nd downs or on 3rd down with less than 5 yards to go.

Uncovered Receivers - Orange Throwing Uncovered The receiver may widen his alignment or switch his stance. The QB will catch the snap and get the ball to receiver as quick as possible The receiver shows his numbers to the QB, secure the ball, run to daylight. All other receivers will block the most dangerous man.

Uncovered Receivers - Silver Throwing Uncovered Bubble The QB catches the snap, delivers the ball on the up-field shoulder, fades back after the throw. The receiver will have his inside foot up in his stance and runs the bubble, secures the ball, runs to the sidelines.

Recognize it – Protect it – Attack it! Hurt the Blitz Recognize it – Protect it – Attack it! Protections must be simple (man scheme). Attack (must have a game plan). Sight adjustments Hot routes Bring in extra protection Screens No back/Quick Game

The Right Tools in the Toolbox Game Planning The Right Tools in the Toolbox Must be able to adjust during game. Routes must be adjustable. Must have the right tools in the toolbox.

The Quick Game Girl’s Our 3-step passing game is the Girl’s series. This is the “BREAD AND BUTTER” of our offense. We will throw it at anytime, anywhere on the field. We prefer to use it against covers 3 and 1 or against the blitz. This is a high percentage series. The completion should be 80% - 85%. These are the only “pass plays” we teach. We can run these plays out of most of our formations, but a majority of the time we like to run them from Doubles, Trips, or Spread.

Motion Motion is the second part of how we get aligned before we want the ball snapped. We use motion in our offense for specific, defined purposes. The basics of our motions will be first in the play call. A player and a type of motion will be the few words before the play. We will designate WHO we want to be in motion and we will designate WHAT type of motion we want. The QB will control final destination with the snap count. It is vital to our offense that our WRs, RBs, and QBs know who has to be on the line of scrimmage and who has to be off.

Motions SAY/SAX FAY/FAX Zorro/Zulu Stupid Z F Y S X

Q Receiver ‘Q’ Receiver: within all of our passing concepts, we will have a player built in that will break off his route so the QB has a quick option against the blitz. The QB and WRs must always know who is the Q and who makes him adjust his route.

Mesh Concept * Xena * Our Mesh concept is known as Xena, and it attacks the underneath edge of coverage very rapidly, many times from a tightened environment. This concept creates multiple “rubs” by incorporating different crossing routes. Our Mesh Concept is a quick rhythm concept, whose primary purpose is to attack man-to-man defense by creating match-up problems and multiple rubs. With this in mind we also have a zone better built into the mesh concept. This concept, we believe, attacks most of the defenses we will face.

Shallow Concept * Amy * Our Shallow Concept is known as Amy, and it attacks the middle of the field coverage very rapidly, many times from a tightened environment. This concept creates pressure on the linebackers with high/low crossing routes. Our Shallow Concept is a quick rhythm concept, whose primary purpose is to attack the middle of the field by creating match-up problems and multiple levels. We can also tag any receiver on the field to run the shallow. This concept, we believe, attacks most of the defenses we will face.

Smash Concept *Judy* The Smash Concept, which we call Judy, is one of the best ways we have of putting pressure on two deep coverage by creating situations where the cornerback cannot cover two people; he will see a six yard hitch in front of him and have a deeper-developing corner route behind him. Depending on the coverage and situation, we can use it to attack down the field on the deep outside edge, or underneath as a ball-control pass. To the single receiver side, the X will run the corner and the Z will run the flat route.

Art/Money

Vertical Concept *Fleeta* Fleeta signifies the Vertical Concept in our offense. This concept allows our offense to attack and stretch the defense toward the end zone. The vertical passing game is a staple of our offense. We normally will designate our areas of attack as 18-22 yards down the field. The specific parts of the field that this concept attacks include: 4yards outside of the numbers on each side of the field, 2 yards outside each hash mark, and in some cases directly down the middle of the field. We will also have a lower level control route; the Z will run this route unless we tag another receiver to run it. This concept will be used against any kind of coverage we see, whether it is Man-to-Man, or any zone concept.

The Playbook Run Game Review Passing Game Curly Pam Rosy

Flat/Curl Concept *Curly* The Flat/Curl Concept is used to stretch the defense horizontally. This concept is called Curly in our offense. We like to stretch a flat defender to the sideline and replace him with a receiver behind him. At the same time we will control the middle of the field with a short control route. This creates a triangle of receivers for the QB to read. This concept allows us to attack an area 12 yards down the field on the hashes and the area 5 yards deep on the numbers. Lastly the control route enables us to attack the middle of the field at a depth of five yards. This concept is best at attacking both Cover 3 and Cover 4.
