Understanding the Wing T• The Delaware System also places all plays from a similar look into a series.
• The best example of this is the Sweep, Trap, and Waggle plays. All these plays belong in the Sweep or Twenty Series. All the plays in a particular series compliment each other in someway, for example the Waggle is the play action pass off of the Sweep. There are nine series used in the Delaware System.
• The Delaware System uses a sequence of three numbers to communicate the play from the coach to the field. The first number is the formation, the second number identifies the series, and the final number directs the point of attack. Additional information concerning a play can be added with either a prefix or suffix.
Strategy: Corner & FS Key TE & Wing“Wing-t teams have traditionally had a great deal of difficulty attacking these defensive spacings because they have elected to stay in traditional wing formations with a tight end wingback on one side and a split end diveback on the other side. By doing this, offensive coaches are playing right into the defensive coaches hands. Why? Because the free safety favors the tight end side so that he can cover the tight end when the defense elects to blitz. As soon as the tight end blocks the free safety is in the run support and tile offensive coach has created another linebacker. The corner is also rolled up to the tight end wingback side and he is assigned to cover the wingback when they blitz. When the wingback blocks another additional linebacker has been created. By now the offense is hopelessly outnumbered but many coaches stubbornly continue to try to force the bucksweep and other tight end wingback plays into bad numbers.”-DENNIS CREEHAN•Get your Strong Corner and Free Safety flying up to support the run
when they get down blocks from the wing and tight end!
Review of Successful Strategies• Review the 4 base keys (fullback, Halfback, Wing, Slot). Check for false
keys; If none or very few, utilize that key until they make you get off it.• Check wingback trail motion for tendencies; if valid, use for a key• Avoid man coverage vs. Option schemes• Avoid wrong arm technique vs. Load scheme• Avoid man coverage vs. Jet Sweep• Corner & FS fill hard off run reads from wing and TE• Slant to weak tackle with strong End and Nose• Slant to Wing with strong End and Nose• Slant strong with Ends and Nose• Wrong arm the pullers in Sweep, trap, and tackle trap• Mix up your option responsibilities• Strategy 9 vs. Wing-T Runs: FS is flying up on run Read off end man
