The Run and Shoot Offense
Pass Protection - Line Blocking
The blocking assignments are very simple in this offense. The defenders are numbered 0, 1, 2, and 3 and
the linemen block their numbers. The center blocks 0, the guard 1, the tackle 2, and the S Back 3 on the
playside. The uncovered linemen set onside and block backside if his man doesn't come. The covered
linemen set onside and take away the playside number of the defender. The linemen want to be firm on the
playside and "stone" the defender.
If a team goes into an alignment where the center is uncovered and the guard and tackle are covered, we
would block big on big and the S Back would block the backer.
