Compatible Schemes
This archetype is used in the following schemes:
Air Raid
A variant of spread, Air Raid gives the quarterback control of the play at the line of scrimmage. The offense focuses on passing plays but trusts the quarterback to diagnose the defense and call audibles when running lanes open up.
West Coast Power Run
The West Coast Power Run creates weakness in the defense by stretching it out horizontally with short passing. The half backs then attack those weaknesses for big gains.
Other Quarterback Archetypes
Strong Arm
Makes big plays downfield using exceptional arm talent, forcing defenses to play safe or pay the price.
Scrambler
Evades pressure in the pocket and makes throws on the run, bringing an extra dimension to the offense.
Field General
Manages the offense and reads defenses to put the ball in the hands of playmakers.
