Philosophy of the I-Back Offense

• Tailback Emphasized Offense• A Downhill Lead Series Running Game– Isolation of a Linebacker or Defensive End

• Angle Blocking Schemes– Pulling Lineman– Double Teams at the Point of Attack– Pulling Guard with the Name of “Fullback”

• With Lineman or Fullback• Power Run Game– A Kick out at the Defensive End

• With Lineman or Fullback– Bring Bodies through the Hole

• Outside Run Game– Secure the Edge– Bring Bodies to the Outside Forcer
