Tight end. The formation strength is his side: Rt and Lt in a call mean where the Y goes.

Mostly the strong-side receiver. Off the ball when a tight end is on his side.

Mostly the weak-side receiver, on the ball.

The adjuster: the formation word talks to him. Fullback in 21, second tight end in 12, third receiver in 11.

Halfback.

1 back, 1 tight end, 3 receivers. F is the third receiver.

1 back, 2 tight ends, 2 receivers. F is the second tight end.

1 back, 3 tight ends, 1 receiver. The receiver is tagged X or Z: 13X, 13Z.

2 backs, 1 tight end, 2 receivers. F is the fullback.

2 backs, 2 tight ends, 1 receiver, tagged 22X or 22Z.

2 backs, 3 receivers. The third receiver plays the Y spot.

1 back, 4 receivers. The fourth receiver plays the Y spot.

No back. 01 = 1 tight end and 4 receivers, 02 = 2 tight ends and 3 receivers.

Jumbo: an extra lineman plays a tight end spot (Rams word).

On the ball next to the tackle: one yard outside him, on the row spacing the editor shows in orange. The next man is one more yard out.

A -5- on a playbook diagram is the Hash +5 landmark. A -3- is Hash +3. Hash +1 to +5 are the reduced splits. A stacked or bunched partner sits one yard either side of the man on the landmark.

Receiver or tight end drawn INSIDE the numbers: Top #s (the inside edge of the paint). Well inside: #s -1 or #s -2.

Drawn ON the numbers: Mid #s.

Drawn OUTSIDE the numbers: Bottom #s (the outside edge of the paint).

Normal outside split with nothing marked: #s +2 (the books' 2 yards outside the numbers to the field). Into the boundary: #s +4.

Very wide: 4 from the sideline or 2 from the sideline.

Slot with no mark: halfway between the end man and the outside receiver (the editor's middle snap).

A pack pushed out to the numbers covers them: inside man Top #s, point man Mid #s on the ball, outside man Bottom #s.

If a playbook shows a spot none of these cover, add a new landmark for it instead of eyeballing it.

Depths: under center the halfback's toes are at 7.5 yards and the fullback's heels at 5. Gun: quarterback's heels at 5, back beside him. Pistol: quarterback at 4, back at 7.

Under center is the default. No word is said.

Quarterback in the shotgun, back beside him. Said before the formation: Gun Trips Rt.

Quarterback at 4 yards, back straight behind him.

Neither book has a word for which side of the quarterback the gun back stands on. The play tells him. The chart still records it, so PlayForge keeps it as a note on the formation: strong = the Y's side.

Z cuts his split to 5 yards from the end man, off the ball.

Also called: Lab / Rat. Rope and Lasso add the Y coming across to a bunch (Rams)

Starts in I Rt Ace. The Y shifts across, then the X motions across to finish in I Lt Hip.

On film: Tight end trades sides, then a receiver follows.

Audible: the quarterback is changing the play. The new run or protection follows. Always on Turbo.

Flip the play to the other side out of a balanced formation. Alerted in the huddle: 18 alert Oscar becomes 19.

Two plays called in the huddle. Run the first unless the quarterback says Can, then run the second.

Cancels a Can or an Oscar: back to the first play.

The no-huddle package, and the fast cadence that goes with it.

Base strong-side wide zone, Mike declared. In 11 from 2x2 the line and TE zone the front, receivers block by 8-9 rules. Usually paired with a backside Sift or an Oscar/Can to get out of a bad look.

On film: Whole line reach-steps flat to the TE side, back opens lateral and aims outside the TE, one cut. 2x2 with one TE. A backside player cutting off the end = Sift.

One-back strong wide zone behind a TE plus wing. The two tight ends combo the edge (Homer in GB, Zap in LA) and with the tackle own the end, Sam and strong safety. Play-side receiver takes the corner.

On film: Two TEs stacked to the run side (wing off the TE hip). Line reaches flat, wing and TE double the end then one climbs. Back tracks wide for the D gap, QB boots away after the handoff.

Two-back, full-flow strong wide zone. Fullback and Y work together through the end man to the support player, Mike declared, play-side receiver blocks the corner. Zap is the one-back twin (wing replaces the FB).

On film: I or offset back set. Fullback leads flat to the TE side and fits off the TE block on the edge, tailback follows on the same wide track. Everyone flows one way, no cutback blocker.

Zap with the "4" (weak safety down) adjustment built in: targeting slides back one man, Will declared, tackle and TEs own end, Sam and Mike. Paired with LA Zap Fup because both describe the same automatic call.

On film: Looks like Zap from a TE/wing surface, but the combos work one linebacker further back and the play-side receiver must dig out the strong safety. Often tossed.

Also called: 18 / 19 Zap Fup (Rams)

Strong wide zone where the line, TE and receivers block the shell they see (front plus coverage) instead of a fixed count. Zero declared vs one-high, TE declared vs two-high. Gun version is 38 / 39 with a bubble.

On film: Wide zone from 11 with receivers stalking by leverage, slot working in on the nickel or safety. In LA it is a bounce read: back presses wide and expects to get outside.

Strong wide zone with split flow: the F (second TE or fullback) comes back across the formation to cut off the backside edge so the backside tackle can zone inside.

On film: Line reaches one way, the F goes the other way behind the line and cuts the backside end. Back on a wide track to the TE. Sets up the keeper off the same look.

Two-back, full-flow wide zone to the weak side. Fullback blocks the Will, Mike declared. "Spot" (QB fist) vs a safety nobody can reach: line pushes one man over, FB takes the safety, receiver takes the corner.

On film: I-back set, everyone flows away from the TE. Fullback leads through the weak B/C area to the Will, back aims at the outside leg of the weak tackle.

Strong-side partner of 19 / 18 Weak in the two-back can package: called together and the QB keeps or flips based on unblockable support or safety rotation. Exact fullback rule is unclear from text.

On film: I-back wide zone to the TE side with the fullback leading; usually seen as the play the QB checks into or out of at the line.

One-back wide zone to the open side, box declared: line and TE just block the box (4 down plus 2 backers), receivers on 8-9 or slot rules. The usual "can" answer when the strong-side run has an unblockable defender.

On film: Wide zone away from the TE from 11 or 12, no lead blocker. Back aims at the outside leg of the open-side tackle. Close cousin of the LA 17 / 16 Wanda mid zone track.

Gun weak wide zone with a Wipe: the play-side guard pins the A-gap tackle and the center pulls around for the backer. Off when there is a 3 technique. Carries a bubble or docking screen, or a Z quick-game tag.

On film: Shotgun, back offset. Center pulls play side around a down-blocking guard while the rest of the line reaches. Receivers showing bubble on the perimeter.

Two-back strong wide zone where the fullback goes to the support player: inside or outside the end if Sam is on the ball, around the edge if Sam is off. TE takes a walked-up Sam. Not the same as LA 16 / 17 Force.

On film: I-back wide zone to the TE side; fullback runs for the force defender (safety/corner area) instead of doubling the end with the TE.

Two-back wide zone blocked by count: play-side blockers take #1, the fullback takes #2, center targets #3. Aims at the outside leg of the tackle. Becomes Force when the Sam walks up on the line.

On film: Fullback arcs outside for the second defender in from the sideline while the line reaches; back a bit tighter than Zorro (tackle, not TE).

One-back strong wide zone from trips, TE declared: center leaves the first box backer for the TE and takes the second. Slot and F block slot rules. Cans to weak Wanda vs a box issue.

On film: 11 personnel trips. Wide zone to the TE/trips side with the slot blocking the nickel or safety. Compare LA Zyn, which may be the same idea (not confirmed).

LA one-back strong wide zone from 3x1 in 11: tackle, Y and the slot receiver block the end, nickel and the third defender in from the sideline. Normally carries Pulse. May match GB Support, not confirmed.

On film: Trips with a slot tight to the TE. Slot receiver blocks down or in like an extra tight end, outside receiver stalks. Back wide to the D gap.

LA wide zone to the open side with a three-man combo to the nickel: slot receiver joins the tackle so line plus slot handle 4 down, 2 backers and the nickel. Run with Pulse, Fly or Flow motion.

On film: Wide zone away from the TE. Slot receiver cracks in next to the tackle on the end/nickel. Jet motion either into the run (Fly) or away from it (Flow).

GB 11/12 wide zone that always shows a Sift on the diagrams and is paired with weak Wanda or a pass as the can. Exact meaning of the word is unclear from text; likely Wanda blocking plus a cross sift.

On film: Bunch or trips-tight look. Wide zone one way with a receiver or TE coming back across to cut off the backside edge. Gun version is 38 / 39.

GB 11 wide zone drawn with structure rules to the play side and a Sift behind it; reads like Wash (push-declared) plus a Y sift. Unclear from text beyond that.

On film: Bunch or 2x2, sometimes with Z fly or ghost motion. Wide zone with the Y cutting off the backside end.

GB 12 wide zone to the weak side that always comes with a receiver in fly motion. Blocking shows normal backside combos; what the word changes is unclear from text.

On film: Two-TE West set, receiver jets across at the snap, wide zone hits away from the TE side.

GB two-back open-formation wide zone with slot rules for the receivers, paired with 19 / 18 Weak as the can. Also appears as 14 Weasel inside zone. What the tag changes is unclear from text.

On film: I formation with both receivers split (no TE surface), wide zone with the slot blocking the nickel.

GB two-back toss wide zone to the weak side from Ace sets, canned to 18 / 19 Weak vs an unblockable strong safety. Fullback rule is unclear from text.

On film: I or Weak set with Y on the other side, toss weak, play-side line showing Fan and Double calls.

GB two-back strong wide zone called with Toss Sideline weak as the can vs an unblockable strong safety. Name suggests the fullback handles the Sam, but that is unclear from text.

On film: I formation with FB bumped. Wide zone to the TE side, or the QB checks and tosses weak.

Automatic toss to the weak side. Fullback man-reaches the end man (can cut him), tackle takes the first backer off the ball. "Spot" pushes the line one man and sends the receiver to the corner.

On film: Reverse-out toss away from the TE, back runs for width right now. Fullback sprinting flat to hook or cut the weak-side end.

LA mid zone to the open side by box count: line plus TE account for 4 down and 2 backers. Tiff adds a flinch by a receiver. GB has no mid zone family; its 19 / 18 Wanda is the nearest relative.

On film: Line steps play side but less flat than wide zone, QB opens at 4/8 o'clock, back tracks the C gap (outside leg of the tackle) away from the TE and makes one cut.

Wanda Push: open-side mid zone where the line still counts the box but alerts a Push to a down safety, so the combos climb one man further play side.

On film: Same picture as 17 / 16 Wanda from 3x1; the front-side combo ends up on a walked-down safety instead of a backer.

Open-side Wanda where the fly motion only happens vs single-high with the safety rotated weak: the motion man accounts for that safety. Vs two-high shell or strong rotation there is no motion.

On film: 3x1. If the free safety is down on the run side the receiver jets across toward the run at the snap; if not, it is plain Wanda.

Wanda Fly plus Skate/Slalom: fly motion to the run side and the innermost receiver slides away from it, so the defense sees 2x2 Wanda. Ski adds an insert block on the slide.

On film: Jet motion toward the open-side run while another receiver or TE slides behind the line the opposite way. Mid zone track, under center or gun (37 / 36).

Wanda Flow: open-side mid zone with jet motion away from the run. Pre-snap the QB can give the sweep (Spirit / Alaska) instead. With Sift the TE cuts off the backside and the back gets it.

On film: Receiver jets away from the run, line zones to the open side. Watch whether the ball goes to the jet man or the back.

LA mid zone to the closed (TE) side, Mike-based. Normally comes with a backside Sift. With Fly and Ice a receiver skis across to the open side and the backside tackle mans the end.

On film: Mid zone toward the TE, back on a C-gap track. Backside TE or receiver coming across to cut off the end.

Straight Sift: closed-side mid zone blocking the structure. TE goes through or arcs to #2 from the sideline, receiver has #1, line works to #3. Sift is automatic (backside tackle sifts or combos). For nickel only.

On film: TE releases off the ball to a second-level defender instead of blocking the end; line zones toward him. Seen vs nickel, not base.

Wanda with a cross sift: split-flow mid zone to the closed side off a two-man surface. Can add Fly motion to the run side, a flinch, or a bubble.

On film: Line zones to the TE side while a blocker crosses the formation the other way to cut off the end. Jet motion toward the run in the Fly version.

Wash with a Y sift and Flow motion: closed-side mid zone from 3x1, line works to #2 from the sideline outside-in, receiver takes #1. Different play from GB 18 / 19 Force.

On film: Jet motion away from the run before the snap, Y comes back across to cut off the backside, mid zone to the closed side.

Gun Wash plus a bubble: offset-gun mid zone to the open side, line counts 4 down and 2 backers and alerts Push to the safety, with the bubble as the built-in throw.

On film: Shotgun, back offset, 3x1 or 1x3 open. Mid zone away from trips with a bubble screen showing on the trips side.

Gun Wash from 2x2 with a pre-snap motion that does not change passing strength. Same box count and Push alert as Sponge.

On film: Offset gun, short motion that stays on its own side, mid zone to the open side.

Gun Flash with a Sift: open-side gun mid zone with a motion that does change passing strength. Line targets #2 outside-in, possible Push to the nickel.

On film: Offset gun, receiver motions across the formation, backside blocker sifts the end, mid zone to the open side.

Gun Wanda: plain box-count mid zone to the open side from offset gun, any formation, no motion required.

On film: Offset gun, back crosses the QB on a B-gap track, line zones to the open side and blocks the box.

One-back inside (tight) zone to the weak side by box count. Receivers on 4-5 or slot rules; LA adds Maybe / Misty / Miff rules for the receiver who may insert on a down safety.

On film: Line steps vertical, not flat. Back opens, crosses over and squares up at the weak B gap, reading the first lineman past the center. Gun version is 35 / 34.

Base strong-side inside zone, Mike declared. GB tags it with Al Oscar and alert insert; LA runs it with Fly motion and Ice (a receiver skis across, backside tackle mans the end). Paired as the same base play.

On film: Downhill zone to the TE side, back squares up at the B gap. Motion across and a backside cut-off block in the LA version.

Also called: 14 / 15 Fly-Flight Ice (Rams)

Inside zone to the closed side with the F crossing back to cut off the backside edge (split flow). LA runs it from one- or two-back slot sets with Fly motion. Gun is 34 / 35.

On film: Line zones tight to the TE side, F comes across the formation behind them and kicks or cuts the backside end. Back downhill, can cut all the way back off the sift.

Also called: 14 / 15 F Sift Fly-Flight (Rams)

Two-back, full-flow inside zone to the weak B gap, Mike declared. Fullback leads on the Will. "Spot" sends the FB to the safety and pushes the line one man. Insert keeps the backside off the strong safety.

On film: I formation iso look with zone blocking: fullback straight up into the weak B gap on the Will, back right behind him.

Split-flow inside zone, Will declared. The F blocks the first backer off the ball inside the end on the side away from the call; backside combos depend on where the Sam is.

On film: Line zones one way, F goes the other way and inserts on a backside linebacker rather than the end.

Inside zone strong with zone on the call side and man blocking on the backside. Fullback takes the Will (Mike on a hip slap, the tackle if a backer shows in the A gap). Wanda Y Man is the one-back version.

On film: Play side zones; backside linemen stay on their own man with no combo. Fullback or Y crosses to the backside linebacker.

Also called: 15 / 14 Wanda (Y) Man (Green Bay)

Cross-action inside zone with Push declared: targets slide one man play side and can change after the snap. Receivers block structure. Under center or offset gun (35 / 34).

On film: In gun the back starts opposite, runs flat through the QB's toes then squares up at the B gap; QB rides the mesh and fakes a throw.

GB 11 inside zone from bunch, called in a can pair with 15 / 14 Wanda and flipped on safety rotation. Looks like the LA Wifi idea (Wanda with a cross sift) but that match is not confirmed from text.

On film: Bunch set, tight zone toward the bunch, sometimes with Z ghost motion and the QB opening deep.

LA Wanda with a cross sift: split-flow tight zone to the closed side off a two-man surface. Can carry a flinch, a bubble, or Fly motion. May be the same play GB calls Wizz (not confirmed).

On film: Tight zone to the TE side, a blocker crossing behind the line to cut off the backside end. Gun version is 34 / 35.

GB 11 inside zone drawn with structure rules play side and a Sift behind it; reads like Wash plus a Y sift. Unclear from text beyond that.

On film: 2x2 with the Y off the ball or in motion; tight zone with the Y cutting off the backside.

GB inside zone weak with a receiver in fly motion and the F sifting the backside. What Wendy adds beyond the fly motion is unclear from text.

On film: Jet motion at the snap, tight zone away from the TE, F crossing to cut off the end.

Inside zone strong where Demon = Z ghost motion plus a crack on the first second-level defender in the box, with a Sift on the backside and the QB opening deep.

On film: Z fakes the ghost/orbit behind the QB or cracks down inside on a linebacker; tight zone hits behind it.

Tossed inside zone to the weak side from two-back sets with the Z inserting on a box defender. Spot alert available. Fullback job is unclear from text.

On film: Toss action but the back hits downhill inside; short-motion Z digs out a linebacker or safety.

GB gun inside zone (box count) with a tagged receiver concept, Pile and Shield, attached. The 50s series number is not explained in the pages read; unclear from text.

On film: Shotgun 11, inside zone with receivers running a quick two-man concept instead of blocking.

LA gun dive zone to the weak side: back takes a lead step and tracks the backside A gap. Ski adds a slide with insert, Solid tells the backside receiver he has no insert rule.

On film: Shotgun, back next to the QB hits straight downhill at the center's far hip. Tightest zone track in the system.

LA dive zone read to the open side from 2x2. QB reaches and rides, and can pull it. TE away from the run takes his best release to the support player: arcs vs a 6 technique, goes through vs a 9.

On film: Gun, QB rides the mesh with eyes on the unblocked end to the TE side; TE releases past that end without blocking him.

LA dive zone read from open formations (no TE): both edges are open and there is nobody to release on the backside, so the QB simply reads the backside end.

On film: Gun trips or 1x3 open, no tight end attached. QB rides the back and keeps if the end crashes.

Strong-side gap scheme with no puller: vertical double teams up to the backers, TEs handle the end and Sam, back reads the first play-side linebacker. Receiver has Maybe rules (find the down safety, may insert).

On film: Looks like power without a pulling guard. Double teams drive straight off the ball, back presses downhill at the A/B gap with square shoulders then bounces or bangs off the Mike.

GB name for Duo in 11: combos work only to the two box backers (backside LB declared), F blocks the nickel from bunch. LA keeps the word Duo in 11 with a 4 down plus two backer count, so treat it as the same family.

On film: Duo from 2x2 or bunch with three receivers; no puller, slot or F digging out the nickel.

LA non-puller gap run where a receiver wraps to the point of attack for the most dangerous man, building a three-man surface from a 2x2 start. Jab step and over-the-top handoff, meant to bounce to the edge.

On film: Back jabs away then takes the ball going wide (D to C gap). A receiver folds in around the TE block as the lead.

Same wrap-and-bounce gap run as Doctor but it can get to the final three-man surface three ways: 2x2 with a wrap, 3x1 with Flow motion away, or 1x3 with Fly motion in.

On film: Jab and over-the-top handoff, receiver wrapping to the edge, usually with jet motion one way or the other.

Doctor family, but the wrap ends in a 2x2 final picture: starts 1x3 and wraps a receiver over, or starts 2x2 with Flow motion and a wrap.

On film: Jab, over-the-top handoff and bounce; wrapper comes from the far side so the formation finishes balanced.

Two-back, full-flow gap scheme. F kicks out the end man, backside guard pulls around the double team for the first color, TE tracks the C gap, Will declared. Back attacks the A gap downhill.

On film: Down blocks play side, fullback kick-out on the end, backside guard pulling through the hole. Back drop-steps then hits tight inside.

One-back gap scheme: backside guard pulls around the double team to the first defender in the box, TE declared, end man is blocked man-on. Gun is 32 / 33 with reach-and-ride or same-side draw footwork.

On film: Power look with no fullback: guard pulls and turns up inside, nobody kicks out. Back on a delayed, draw-like downhill path.

LA one-back strong gap run with gap-wrap blocking: line blocks back, backside guard pulls and attacks the end man, Y releases to the play-side backer. Guard kicks out here, so it is not paired with GB Pop.

On film: Guard pulls and kicks the end, back presses the A gap and reads that block. Can add flow motion with a receiver wrap. Gun is 32 / 33.

Strong-side counter: backside guard trap-pulls the end man, F wraps for the first backer in the box, TE tracks the C gap, Will declared. LA Load Chuck Wrap is similar but wraps a receiver, so kept separate.

On film: Back takes a counter step away, then follows two pullers back: guard kicks out, F turns up inside him. Over-the-top handoff.

LA strong-side counter from 12/13: F and Y combo the end to the second backer (Load), backside guard pulls for the end man, a receiver wraps to the hole. Snapped off fly motion, possible ghost fake.

On film: Rocker step by the back, guard pulling to kick out, receiver folding in behind him as the second puller. Two TEs doubling at the point.

Weak-side counter in 11: backside guard trap-pulls and kicks out the end man, the Y wraps for the first backer in the box, play-side tackle works to #2. Same blocking as LA Barkley. Gun is 33 / 32.

On film: Back counter-steps toward the TE then comes back weak. Guard and TE both pull across: guard kicks, TE leads up inside.

Also called: 13 / 12 Barkley (Rams)

Weak-side counter from two-back or two-TE sets: backside guard trap-pulls the end, F wraps for the first backer. Backside tackle and TE handle the Sam with Ink, Thru or Pinch calls.

On film: Same as Stanley but the second puller is the fullback/F from the backfield or wing instead of the in-line Y.

Same blocking, different exchange: QB reverses out and tosses, back takes a lateral crossover path with a slight downhill lean. Written in front of the number, e.g. Toss 18 Zorro.

Backside cut-off by a TE, F or receiver: he takes the first defender outside the backside tackle and lets nobody cross his face. Lets the back cut all the way back. Also a line word for the backside tackle protecting the B gap.

Names who the sifter is. F Sift makes the play split flow because the F comes back across the formation.

Two plays are called. QB runs the first unless he sees the stated look, then says "can" and goes to the second. GB prints the trigger on the page: Unblockable, Box Issue, Rotation, Shell, 2 DBs, Man/Zone.

LA note on the call sheet that the "can" partner may be a run or a pass.

GB prefix for a built-in adjustment the QB may trigger, e.g. Al Oscar, Al Spot, Al Z Insert, Al Short. LA writes ALERT the same way on its diagrams.

QB flips the run to the other side. Rule: vs one-high run away from the down safety; vs two-high run away from (or to, as tagged) the bounce read. Line re-declares on the call.

GB answer to unblockable support on Weak and Sideline runs. QB shows a fist: line pushes its targets one man play side, fullback takes the safety, play-side receiver takes the corner.

GB adjustment vs weak rotation on Zorro/Zap: guard slaps the fullback's hip to send him to the Mike, TE blocks his man alone. Quatro makes it automatic. LA tag Fup (free safety down weak) does the same job on Zap Fup.

LA tag on Zap from one-back slot: tells the line there are no Fup calls (exceptions noted for corners over). TEs and tackle take end, Sam and corner.

LA tag: vs any single-high look pull the targeting back one spot and block the defense as spots. GB line call for the same shift is Pull.

Jet motion toward the point of attack. Flight is the same motion with a late snap point. GB writes it in the formation (Z Fly, X Fly, F Fly).

Jet motion away from the point of attack. Flock is Flow with a late snap point.

LA tag: the jet motion only happens vs single-high weak rotation, where the motion man accounts for the rotated safety. Do not confuse with the GB fist hand signal for Spot.

Backside receiver comes inside to block a box defender, usually the down safety. In GB it also tells the backside tackle and TE to work only to the Sam.

Receiver rules on tight zone and Duo. Maybe: find the down safety, might insert. Misty: Maybe with possible insert. Miff: Maybe rules, fly vs a down weak safety. Tim: backside tackle mans the end, slot takes best path to nickel.

GB can trigger on Spirit / Alaska: a wide 9 technique on the sweep side, so check to 15 / 14 Wash.
