Breakdown

PA Power O sells the Power O run action out of Singleback Wing Slot before attacking downfield off the fake. Off the play fake, the outside receiver runs a deep corner/go route up the sideline (red), the inline TE releases up the seam then breaks flat outside at a shallow depth (yellow crossing route), the slot runs a quick vertical clear-out (yellow post), and the backside receiver runs a shallow drag across the field into the flat (blue). This is a play-action shot play designed to punish aggressive run defenses and single-high shells, with the primary read progression going deep corner route first, then working down to the flat/drag combo underneath if the shot is not there.

Defensive Reads

Pre-snap, identify single-high safety looks (Cover 1 or Cover 3) since this play is built to exploit those shells with the deep corner route beating outside leverage Watch for corner blitzes or edge pressure off the play fake, since your protection is built around run blocking and can break down against exotic pressure looks If the linebackers step up hard on the run fake, the drag and flat combo underneath will be wide open in the void they vacate Versus Cover 2 or Cover 4 (quarters), the deep corner route may get squeezed by an over the top safety, so be ready to check down to the shallow crosser instead Watch for a user controlled defender sitting in a shallow zone or lurking near the drag route, since that is the biggest threat to the easy underneath completion

Usage Tips

Run this on early downs, ideally 1st or 2nd and short to medium, when the defense is keying run tendencies from your Power O and HB Power O calls in this same set

Check the box count and safety depth before the snap, if you see two safeties rotating down or a linebacker creeping into the box, that is your green light for the play fake to hold

Hot route the backside drag into a deeper dig or comeback against teams sitting in soft zone to give yourself a second answer versus zone beaters

Pair this call with HB Power O and 26 Duo earlier in a drive to bait linebackers into downhill run fits, then hit this shot play once they start biting hard

Against man coverage, prioritize the deep corner route matchup on the boundary corner and look to backshoulder it if he turns his hips early
