I'm not a coach and I didn't sleep at a Holiday Inn Express but I have a basic idea for an offense that I think might work. The idea is to spread the field out as much as possible by being able to easily attack any part of it.
Here's the hard part. You need 2 quarterbacks, a left hander and a right hander that can run and throw. That might kill the deal right there! Anyway it works something like this. The RH QB lines up under center. The LH QB lines up in the backfield to right of the center. A running back lines up to the left of center. Something like this:
----------RH-QB----------
------RB---------
-------------------LH-QB------------
RH QB takes the snap turns left and either fakes or hands off to the RB who is running up the middle. Then the RH QB again fakes or hands off to the LH QB as the LH QB runs left parallel to the line. At this point the RH QB is running right with the option to pass and the LH QB is running left with the option to pass. That's it.
Would that work?

There are a few offenses already that use dual QBs. The A-11 for instance. I'm toying with a package that utilizes 4 QBs, and one of them is left handed. All this kind of stuff is very gimmicky and usually blows up in your face if you ever actually run it in a game. Also, you can't count on having the personel to do these kinds of things year in and year out. But its fun to draw and dream and say "I've invented something unique - now if I only had the players I could be the greatest coach who ever lived!" I do it all the time.

Here is what it comes down to is the kids getting enough reps throwing the ball. Most people don't even want their back up QB in there because they don't have the reps. You better have enough reps so that you feel comfortable letting both kids throw the ball.

7 players must be on the LOS which leaves 4 for the backfield/off the LOS... you would need to get rid of one of the players you have shown.
or is the RH-QB one player?

The 2QB system like you describe will be something we will have the potential for and will probably do at times next year... a lot the following year. We are a Single Wing team and our rather than lining up in the Tailback spot, our QB is in the HB position

You better have enough reps so that you feel comfortable letting both kids throw the ball. If you ran this in high school my guess is that the 2 qbs would opt to run the ball most of the time. If everyone carries out their fakes really well I think it would really spread things out. It seems like it's a fast developing play so I don't think it would get blown up in the backfield. The only problem I see is that both qbs will be throwing on the run alot since they are both rolling out. Also this is not an option play. You would know in advance who is going to get the ball. Either the RB or the LH QB or the RH QB. |
