28-29 “Jet”
“Reach” Family
•28-29 Jet is a FAST way to attack the perimeter and get an
athlete running in open space! The pace of the play makes
blocking for frontside linemen much easier! The angles
involved make pursuit for enemy linebackers much harder!
•Ball carriers must recognize that, while blocked like other
“Reach” family plays, this is different for them because it is
a true SPRINT to the corner! We do not want to cut up on
this play until we’ve reached the edge of the field!
•We can use a number of formation variations and perimeter blocking adjustments to
“shorten” the defensive edge and help the outside blockers do their jobs more
effectively! “Crack,” “Door,” and “Ed” schemes are examples of this, as are different
types of “Squeeze” sets.
•Anytime we face a team that relies on interior blitzes, doesn’t pursue well, or has
limited team speed, we will run this play heavily. It can be used from Goalline to
Goalline, and on virtually any down and distance up to 3rd and Long!
KEYS to a successful play: CALLS/VARIATIONS
•The FS Tackle or TE takes a GREAT 1st step and shuts off any •“Crack”
•“Door”
upfield push by the E.M.O.L.! •“Ed”
•Perimeter blockers time blocks and maintain contact! •“Cross”
•“48-49” (Jet to R)
•The QB times his motion and snap effectively!
•The ball carrier trusts his speed and doesn’t try to cut up early!
