Sally/Counter Fundamentals
• Sell the rocket motion fake
• Motion back should keep eye contact with the QB and show his hands
• Ball carrier needs to keep his pad level down. (Jab – Open – Go)
• QB needs to protect the ball and keep hips down
Blocking Rules (Power)• Double team 1st down lineman past the center
• The covered lineman in the double team is responsible for the run through linebacker
• The lineman uncovered in the double team NEVER comes off unless the D-Lineman to be double teamed slants inside
• FB kicks the 1st defender outside the play side OT. FB leads with his inside foot . aiming point is the inside hip of the play side OT
• Backside guard blocks backside “B” gap. Backside tackle pulls through the hole for 1st backer when running rocket counter. Backside guard pulls through on jet or no-mo power.
• TE rules = Gap, Down, Backer. Influence vs. 4-4.
VariablesPick up the run through = BIG PLAYS
It is a much better play when run North and South / Good Square Cut by RB.
Formations!!!
Run strong out of unbalanced vs. 8 man fronts
Use “W” ice out of unbalanced vs. 4-3 teams who adjust with safeties
SALLY FUNDAMENTALS
Fundamental's are the same as counters
Mid-line Sally Blocking Rules
• Play side Lineman = Short Pass set and “sort out” defenders to your outside gap
• Center – Double Team A-Gap Down Lineman to Backside LB. (Always Block Nose.)
• Backside guard and tackle block solid. NO PENETRATION ! This looks like Rocket Toss to Defense.
• Fullback – Slide step and lead through hole for 1st defender/Backer
Variables
• FB lead
• Empty/off-set FB
