[QUOTE="stylee, post: 86201, member: 882"] Re: "hitting the defensive end" on the triple option What we're seeing is our offensive tackles running a "loop" scheme; instead of "veering" inside the defensive end, they attempt to loop around him to the outside and then seal the linebacker at the second level. Notice that this is what happens on this play: Griff manages to take out (or at least slow down) Perryman. Generally, the offensive tackle will opt to loop when a defensive end is aligned head-up, rather than outside. Defensive ends are coached to recognize this scheme and do everything in their power to disrupt the tackle's path by getting their hands on him. If they can slow down the tackle, they will have a good chance of muddying up the quarterback's read. The traditional adjustment for a defensive end recognizing the loop scheme is this: slow down loop, then take quarterback. On his fake pitch play later, JT burns the defensive end who doesn't stay sufficiently committed to the QB v. a loop. So we're not trying to hit the defensive end, the defensive end is trying to hit us. If we run out too far to avoid this contact, we're no longer able to effectively seal the middle linebacker. It's a fun little battle within the battle to watch. [/QUOTE]
