Can you help me name this offensive football play?

Question

Using a typical single-back ace formation (double flanked on one side) the QB gets the ball and fakes the hand-off to the RB. The RB then runs a "sweep" on the side that is not double flanked. The 2 WRs on the other side are running their routes down the field. The QB passes to the inside WR and that WR laterals it to the other WR on the outside who makes a run. If there is no set name for the play tell me what you'd call it please.

Answer 1

"Hitch and Pitch" or "Hook and Later" but it is usually done with a pitch to the running back to take advantage of his running abilities.

Answer 2

Every offense is different. We can't tell you what your plays are because they numbers may be different from 1 system to the next. My highschool ran the spread no-huddle offense. Basically the coach would signal the QB and give him a hand signal the QB would tell everybody the signal and everybody would look at their wristbands and they would know what to do. On the wristbands were the individual part of the play that they had to pay attention to. The QB's wristband was like the master wristband and it just said the complete plays name. On a pass play the offensive lines wristband would tell them if it was a 1 step pass block, 3 step pass block, or screen play. The reciever bands told them what route to run, and the runningback band told him either the route or which way he would pass protect. When the coaches told us to huddle up any combination of play could be called. one play would be like 90 F-roger X-3 Y-5 Z-9 90 tells the offensive line that it is a 3 step pass block. F-Roger is telling the runningback that he needs to pass protect to the right, And the X, Y, and Z recivers were given which route they were doing. Run plays were the same on everybodys band. It would just say what the run was and everybody knew how to block it.

Answer 3

Sound pretty much like a hook and ladder. You're going to have some trouble if you keep those receivers together. Have one fake a crossing route to bait the safety to the inside (assuming you're not in man coverage) so you're not doing this in at least double coverage.

Answer 4

Throwing the ball downfield to one receiver who catches it and turns and pitches back to the other receiver,, or running back following down is the Hook and Ladder. Usually a last effort play when it is too far to throw the Hail Mary.

Answer 5

It is called a "Hook and Ladder". Boise State Broncos did it in the Fiesta Bowl last year against Oklahoma. You could go to youtube and type Boise State Hook and Ladder and see the play.

Answer 6

its normal called hook and ladder but you should do it with the running back running like hes doing a sweep(dont know what the route is called) and the reciever running a curl

Answer 7

Uh...Illegal Procedure...No, seriously...Sounds just like you ran a double reverse

Answer 8

Hook and Ladder I think.

Answer 9

Answer 10
