Bobby Peters strikes again... The 2022 Detroit Lions Complete Offensive Manual

Bobby Peters' books are always chuck full of goodies. As I finally was able to fully digest this manual, I was distressed that I did not have a highlighter at my side. So I started dogearing pages. The trouble was I almost dogeared every page! 

All of Coach Peter's book start with a massive Table of Contents and the Detroit manual is no different. 

Four separate sections of Counter run. Five for Duo run. Five for Outside Zone run. Four for Inside Zone run. Those are a few of the run sections. To follow is a massive one hundred and thirty seven pages of the pass game. 

A few years back I was able to review Coach Peter's San Francisco 2019 manual the full review can be found here. As I looked back on that article, I decided to put some his diagrams into my Just Play account




My first run choice is COUNTER. A unique way that Detroit ran it was from a formation included Bunch and a Tight End. I did not include a front, I will leave that to the professionals. 



Next is POWER! Detroit used a few creative different motions for the kick out block. Here are two of my favorites. 



Next, some zone runs starting with Wide Zone. 
Bonus for one run from shotgun.  

One Inside Zone run I liked was with motion from a Stack alignment

 The last run I will diagram is Crack Toss. As Coach Peters says, "Crack Toss is a complimentary concept to outside zone schemes. It takes advantage of a few different ways defenses like to stop outside zone and gets the ball on the edge quickly."


Another interesting variation with some misdirection! 


Next are a few of the Pass concepts. 
I always love finding new ways of Stick variations. 
I use colors for QB Progression. R4 system!
Green: Rhythm (first)
Blue: Read (second)
Red: Rush (third)
Orange: Option (varies)
I do like to use some Dan Gonzales principles too. 


Next is a the next layer Stick, a Pivot or Whip route is added as a double move. 
I do like the Smash variation to with an option route compliment. 


So many pass combinations in the manual that were interesting and diverse. I will limit myself to a few more...I always love crossers! 


Any finally, some Shallow additions. 


Coach Peters always delivers. And if you are lucky enough to have access to NFL ALL-22. He tags all the plays for easy viewing. He Often runs bundle deals. Find him on Twitter, sorry X.

Drills, Drills and Drills

 

 Been a minute since I dropped an article off. I am back talking about my favorite resources for drills as we prepare for this upcoming season. I wanted to give you resources that I pull from to find drills that we use in my program. I hope some of this is helpful for you.

We will start first with position drills.

QB Drills - Please watch this clinic with Pete DeWeese featuring Sean McEvoy if you want to learn how to better coach your QB

RB Drills - I don't know how I found Coach Robbins but his youtube channel includes all types of RB Drills, Ball Security, IZ Tracks PLUS cutups of the Skip RPO (My current fav) & Counter (my #2 run play)

WR Drills - My 2 biggest influences on WR play at the next level comes from Keith Williams & B. Marion, #3 is this guy Coach D. Ellington. THIS might be the best WR drill tape I have saw put together. if you call yourself a WR guy, this is a MUST!

OL Drills - I found out about Coach Leggett over the COVID at home period. Loves Counter and really good OL coach. He has his own OL Academy in NC and does a good job of showing USEFUL OL drills. 

I did 2 videos on  Practice Culture & Small School Practice - for anyhow looking for ideas to make practice better and how to practice efficiently when you have low numbers or you are low on coaches.

Here is the link to the coachtube course if you want ALL the videos.

Three-Level Flood Concept: Pure Progression Install

 

Introduction:

Our flood concept is a three-level read based off the Safety. It also creates a high-low on the flat defender. We found this explosive play to be easier and a clearer picture for the Quarterback.  

Our Front Side #1 : Has a Win Post unless, it is MOFC then he will run Vertical Route to carry the corner.

Our Back Side #1 : Has a Dig at 12 yards, unless the QB checks to a Deep Out due to leverage. 

NOW if we are in a 2x1 or 2x2 Formation our Play Side #2 has a Circus Out!

In a 3x1 formation #3 has the Circus Out and #2 will run the flat.  

The RB has a Swing if he is away from the call and a flat route if he is to it.

Our QB is taught if there is a hard corner to the call to be prepared to work backside Dig/Swing

If the Corner is a Deep 1/3 or 1/4 player to read it top down. Post, Circus, Flat.


Clip 1: Trips formation. Ball gets tipped on the QB and the Out route happens to early still a completion for 13 yards.

Clip 2: QB changes the route combination in trips. #1 runs a hitch with #2 running the take 2 post. Ball thrown to the Out Route for 14 yards.

Clip 3: Defense comes out in a 2 Man Look and QB ends up scrambling. However, if you watch the Dig off the backside it was a option on this one. 

Clip 4: Vs Cover 3, when the corner turns to run with the fade, QB plants and throws to the out route for a TD.

Clip 5: We come out in Trips Bunch, the out route is stopped due to contact so the QB takes the check down for a completion. 

Clip 6: Similar to the previous play with Stack Alignment this time in Cover 4 as soon as the CB runs with the post the QB is able to hit the out route.



Below are clips of the plays with the details narrated by me.
