Rosie
Tips: On Rosie regardless of formation we will always roll right. So #1 WR to the Right will run a 9 route, #2 WR
to right will run a 10 yd speed out, #1 WR to the Left Run Post.
NOTE: If a left formation #1 WR running a Post, #2 WR will run a Middle Post 15 yd aiming point
Notes: Left back wheel up the numbers, right back seal
edge. We will always roll right if the ball is snapped. We want
to take shot if all possible. Don’t throw ball out of bounds.
Tell line to “chill” after the ball is blown dead

Then look to side line for a brief glance, after that turn back around and start

Tips:
2 Man – - 1 Split of Hash, Same as
Indy Dash - If you do not get the
bubble immediately, do not get depth
and get to #’s. Be patient do not go
until QB gets 4 yards in front of you
then carry out be ready for ball late.
5 Man- 3 Above #’s – Always expect
the Bubble to be thrown. Drive off ball
to Halo and then block the outside #
of the CB – Be patient / Fit / Refit –
Stay on Outside # because QB might
throw Bubble Late
9 Man- Play with split to to mix up
with run game. Block CB – If Corner
back blitzes or is playing hard
hammer technique work to block
safety.
Notes: Heels are at 5 ½
Look for bubble or give signal:
If you get bubble signal tell 4
man “bubble/bubble”. If run it
signal, read DE. Take a lateral
flat jab step play side, don’t
force RB downhill, keep good
base, read DE. If keep read
push for width and attack
inside # of Pitch Key

Read: Flat Defender
Tips:
2 Man: Max Split on #’s – Drive off the
football and read whether it is a “squat”
CB or soft CB. If “soft” CB then push
up to 12 yards and run a curl route.
5 Man: On Hash split. Reading the
hots that QB points out, if they come
run tap (Glance Route) with no blitz
run through the playside safety. If it is
single safety expect seam ball after
you clear the safety.
3 Man: Split difference between 5 Man
and Tackle. Expand on the bubble all
the way to the #’s if, hots come then
expect the bubble to be thrown out
there if they take away 5 man.

Tips: On Patriot 3 2 & 5 Switch.
2 Man – Same as Indy Dash –
Expect Bubble thrown quick. If
you do not get the bubble
immediately get depth and track to
bottom of #’s be patient do not go
until QB gets 4 yards in front of
you then carry out be ready for
ball late.
5 Man- 3 Above the #’s Split –
Always expect the Bubble to be
thrown. Drive off ball to Halo and
then block the outside # of the CB
– Be patient / Fit / Refit – Stay on
Outside # because QB might
throw Bubble Late
9 Man – Play with split and block
Corner
QB uses Indy footwork come of
ride and push to attack edge with
width while reading the DE. If he
is upfield pitch the ball forward to
3 man. If DE closes attack inside
number pitch key. Pitch key takes
you throw bubble late.
