Featured Plays - 31 Cut Pass
This is a great play-action pass out of our double-wing formation. By running the Jet sweep to the left a few times, you can usually set up this play and one of the receivers will be open. The key is to get the QB good depth on the boot leg and to have him do a good job of hiding the ball on his outside hip.

The right TE runs a 5-yard in-and-out route and the backside TE runs a drag route across and to the right. The left wing back runs a deep route across the middle, being sure to get behind the safety. The FB sells the dive play, while the right wing back sells the Jet sweep to the left. The QB looks for the open receiver. This can also be an excellent goal-line or short-yardage play.
