It’s always been a very good play for us. We have used both the handoff and toss method and I think it really doesn’t matter which one you choose as far as the run, however I do think handing it off gives you a better chance to fake for play action. We want our slot coming full speed in motion and we look to snap the ball when he gets to the tackle, to give the quarterback time to seat the ball and work the exchange. ![]() Obviously we want to run the jet with our most explosive player, and also use that same player as a decoy for play action and counter runs. It is on the QB to make the exchange work.”Īt North Murray we have done it several ways. ![]() I do understand the value in the touch pass but we just don't over coach it. We work on the timing with all of our Rec and we take the handoff just like we do any other handoff. John Settle - Head Coach Sunnyvale HS - Sunnyvale, TX: ![]() just depends on personnel and how they handle it. Some years we may handoff, some years we may toss. looking for best timing and ultimately what our QB and Jet Back are most comfortable with. We coach up the mesh as a normal handoff exchange initially, however, we will work the forward toss exchange as well. Overall, we try to keep the blocking scheme the same and simple for our big guys and perimeter blockers. This makes it very simple for us to install Jet as it only adds motion and slightly different exchange. Usually before we install Jet, we have already installed "stretch" with our backs. The jet sweep has been an easy and quick way for us to do this and be efficient. We are blessed with some truly fast guys on the outside and we try to find ways to get the ball in their hands other than passing the ball to them. We time out the motion so the jet sweep player is over the tackle at the snap and our QB simply catches the snap, extends the ball straight out and it's up to the sweep back to "mesh" with the QB with his path.Īfter the hand-off the jet player loses ground for 2 steps in case there is a hard charge from the DE and he has to get around the trash." Sean Little - OC Ballard HS - Louisville, KY: Here’s what the coaches had to say: Rod Staullbamer: Q: How do you coach up the exchange/mesh? Do you hand it off, do you read it, do you toss it forward to make it a forward pass? The first question we asked was about the specifics of handing the ball off on the jet sweep: Keep reading to learn more about the specifics of the jet sweep, how coaches like to teach it, and what other plays they use to keep the defense honest. If you are an “if-then” thinker as a play caller, but you don’t like the idea of your QB taking unnecessary hits on option plays, the jet sweep series may be a way you can incorporate the same ideas into your game plan. Still, it is the threat of all that speed getting to the perimeter that keeps defensive coordinators up at night, and opens up everything else for the offense. Just like many option teams do not run true triple option with a pitch the majority of the time, most offenses with a jet sweep package do not hand the ball off on a jet sweep most of the time. You have several plays from the same pre-snap look that force a defense to play extremely disciplined and not overreact to motion or to the threat of an inside hand off. This allows an offense to make decisions about attacking an opponent in the same way they would if they were a heavy option team. If a defense sees the jet motion and overreacts to try to stop it, there are lots of other plays they can run that look very similar and take advantage of a defense that gets too aggressive. ![]() Many coaches use the play not just to get the ball to the edge in a hurry, but because of all the other things that it allows an offense to run.
