    I FORM-NORMAL (2WR, 1HB, 1FB, 1TE):
    • HB Pass: Trick play. QB tosses right to the HB. The HB can either run or pass. If you pass, you only have 2WRs at your disposal, since the TE blocks on this play. Don't make the mistake of audibling the TE for a pass, because you will get blitzed for not having enough blockers on the line of scrimmage. Scramble directly a few steps to the right, and hit the receiver coming from the left across the field. If the right WR has enough speed, he might burn the DB, so keep a sharp eye on him too.
  22. 22
    Pump N Go: Both WRs fake short, then break deep. Audible the TE to slant left, and get him the ball. The HB screens left.
  23. 23
    I FORM-TWIN WR (same as above, except both WR's left):
    • PA TE Leak: Outside left WR streaks. Inside left WR slants far right over the middle. The TE short slants right. Audible the HB to screen left. Look for the receivers on the slant.
