Pre-Snap Intentions:

  • Shotgun formation
  • 11 Personnel
  • Trips Left (Dortch, Wilson, McBride)
  • Single Right (MHJ)
  • Short Motion (Dortch) —- CB does not chase, points to a switch —- looks like zone coverage to trips side and man-to-man on the single side with Max Melton assigned to MHJ
  • Play action (RPO)
  • Intended QB waggle to left
  • Passing routes:

1- Dortch —-> short motion into a zig-zag corner pass

2- Wilson —-> go-route between the number and the left seam to beat the coverage deep or draw the FS (opens the middle of MHJ) —- It’s called “opening the door”

3- McBride —-> delay out-pass to keep the “under” CB in the zone honest and be the play-side safety valve

4- Marvin Harrison Jr.
