Breakdown

PA Jet Sweep out of Singleback Wing Stack shows play action off jet motion, faking the sweep to the flank while the quarterback boots into a play pass. Off the fake, the backside receiver runs a deep dig that cuts across the middle behind the linebackers, the tight end works a corner route breaking to the sideline, and the outlet receiver runs a shallow drag underneath into a flare toward the boundary as the checkdown. The offensive line shows run blocking flow to sell the sweep before the quarterback resets to throw, making this a play action shot play designed to punish teams that bite on the run fake. Primary read starts with the deep dig, then works to the corner breaking route, and finally checks down to the flare route if the middle of the field is clogged.

Defensive Reads

Presnap identify if the defense is base personnel with linebackers stacked tight to the box, this signals they respect the run and are vulnerable to the play fake. Key the flow of the linebackers at the snap, if they bite hard on the jet motion fake, the dig route will have a clean throwing lane behind them. Watch the safety alignment before the snap, single high shells with the safety creeping toward the line get gashed by the corner route and dig combo since there is no deep help. User the flat or corner defender if you are on defense and stay disciplined against the run fake, do not let your eyes drift into the backfield or the corner route will be wide open. Cover 2 with disciplined linebackers who sit in their zone drops and refuse the run fake shuts this play down, since the dig has nowhere to sit and the corner runs into the deep half defender.

Usage Tips

Run this out of run heavy personnel like 12 personnel to sell the jet sweep look and get linebackers flowing hard to the fake before you pull the trigger on the play pass. Use this on early downs, first or second and short to medium, when the defense expects run based on formation tendencies and down and distance. Watch for safeties crashing down on the jet motion presnap, that is your green light to attack the dig over the middle since the deep half will be vacated. If the corner sits underneath and the flat defender widens with the fake, hot route the corner route into a fade to win one on one versus a cornerback playing off. Pair this with Jet Sweep and HB Power O from the same Wing Stack set earlier in a drive so the defense keys run action, then hit them with this shot play once linebackers start cheating toward the sweep side.
