[QUOTE="Big Philly, post: 79085, member: 1771"] As stylee said in his post today the OLB would blitz into tail motion. In essence what VT did was use the "Easy Stunt" as their base defense. The "Easy Stunt," or the Cross Charge as steebu has called it on his YouTube videos, has the OLB take the B-Gap/B-Back and the DE take the C-Gap/QB. [MEDIA=youtube]7G7MWBnsc5Y[/MEDIA] In steebu's video Miami is running this call very slowly, while VT's defense ran this concept as a blitz. Paul Johnson calls this the "Easy Stunt" because its theoretically it's really easy to read. If running the Inside Veer play, the proper read is to make a quick pitch. [MEDIA=youtube]-C3gxTAYBa8[/MEDIA] I believe Bud Foster reasoned that Vad Lee was not a very strong option QB and that if we did run the Inside Veer into this call, then VT could either tackle Vad for a loss or force a bad pitch for a big loss or a turnover. I suspect he did not think he would run into crisp, quick pitches and A-Backs running free. When not running the Inside Veer the blitzes would disrupt our inside zone series and more importantly our counter trap series.
