4 FORAION 4 Introducing the latest formation package from the A Offense which presents defenses with a difficult unbalanced core box and versatile edges that can quickly morph into a x and x3 passing game. his offensive package is a perfect compliment to the popular spread offense, giving your team a contrarian formation advantage while remaining true to your core play concepts. he 4 will give opposing defensive coordinators nightmares with the overload advantages presented by quick shifts and motions. Flipping plays creates the opposite 4 formation for maximum advantage. OPYRIGH 03 A OFFN. ALL RIGH RRVD.

INRO 4 PAKAG why 4 or 4? In the A Offense formation calls flow left to right and refer to the three zones on the football field that are created by the hash marks. hese three areas are identified as the red, white and blue zones. he numbers in the call -4- coincide with the number of players on the line of scrimmage in each zone. o, in the -4- there are two in the red, four in the white and one in the blue. In the A all formations add up to seven to match the required number of men on the line of scrimmage on every snap. he -4- formation is the -4- flipped. One of the main reasons why the 4 & 4 packages are a great mix-up for spread teams, is how easy it is to to line up in a base spread formation such as agle (above) and with one quick player shift, a -4- package is facing the defense. his is an especially deadly addition to a no-huddle pace. Note: haded players (R-U--Y-) are your five ineligible numbered players #50-79 within each formation. 3.FAOOK.O / AOFFN
the 4 advantage for the spread spread package pread teams playing with the typical five-man line, can morph into a unique four-man line package to create defensive confusion and gain advantage. he 4 a great mix-up package to pull defenders out of the box, while still running many of your run and pass game concepts. 4 PAKAG agle oom 8 eattle same play different look Utilizing motion the same eattle sprint pass concept can be run out of the 4 formation. here is no need to change the passing game as any x and x3 pass route combo is seamlessly integrated into the 4. In 4 eattle the defense is given the illusion of a pre-snap four-man line, but the play morphs into a five-man protection with the use of the check delay flat route. 4 oom 8 eattle.aoffn.o 4
LIN & Q IP 4 PAKAG LIN PLAY eams can create blocking and protection advantages with the unbalanced line, especially in hurry up mode because defensive linemen tend to put their hand on the ground as fast as possible to get into position. In the A interior players always approach the line of scrimmage and say yard off, until they step on to the line of scrimmage at the right point in the cadence. his gives offensive linemen a great advantage of being able to step on the line of scrimmage at any angle to create advantage. In diagram (A) below, the line can approach with the U acting as the center. As the pod steps on, they step at a 45 degree angle and now the is over the ball creating a possible unbalanced advantage. his step on concept is also used to adjust splits for maximum leverage advantage on any play (). A R U Y R U Y R U Y R U Y QUARRAK PLAY Quarterback shifting can wreak havoc on defenses and disrupt tendencies, especially since most defenses expect the quarterback behind the center in shotgun to receive the snap. In the A, the off-set quarterback can also shift to an under center position, even while the # is calling the cadence. his is a great way to spring quick screens and fast hitting veer/midline run concepts on the defense. he angle of being under center is also best for backwards passes to get uncovered R & players involved on the edge. hese ineligible by formation players may legally receive a backwards pass by rule.
