The Run and Shoot Passing Game -The GO Route

by Jim Glover
The Run and Shoot Passing Game  -The GO Route

Description

The Run and Shoot offense terrorized the football world through the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s. It set records, amassed yards, and scored points at a pace that made defensive coaches shudder. Names like Mouse, June, and John were spoken regularly by coaches attempting to either stop or emulate this offense. The play of Moon, Kelly, Brennan, and Chang were the aspiration of many high school players. Since the late 1990s the offense has disapated in its true form. The concepts created and executed by these coaches and players however became a standard part of the game, but under a different guise. Recently, there has been an ember glowing that has brought the true version of offense back to life. The XFL and success of the University of Hawai'i has put the offense back on the market.

This course will give the basic information needed to run the offense. It also has modern day applications versus the split field coverage many spread team will see. Common route packages such as; Go, Choice, Hook, and Streak/Switch are covered. The different variations as well as coaching points are provided. I hope you enjoy the material.

Andre Galvan

An excellent break down and teaching of the Run-and-Shoot "Go" route -- one of the oldest concepts in the system, yet still one of the most effective. Coach Glover covers the basics of the route and how different coverages structures effect the QB reads and receiver adjustments -- additionally, his offense operates from the shotgun and he touches on the importance of timing and how it relates to the QB's thought process. Many tags for variations are also introduced and covered, which gives new wrinkles to the concept and provides flexibility on a short field.
