Designed Qb Run

The Designed Qb Run tag identifies every play where the quarterback is the intended ball carrier by design, spanning 82 plays across 7 formations (Wildcat, Maryland I, Singleback, Shotgun, Goal Line Offense, I Form, Weak I) and 62 sets like Empty Trey Flex, 5WR Tight, and Trips X Nasty Off Wk, including QB Zone, QB Draw, QB Power, QB Blast, 95 Mike, and RPO Alert looks. Competitive players use this tag to quickly filter for called QB keepers that add a blocker to the box and punish man coverage, where defenders turn their backs to the quarterback, as well as spy-less nano blitz setups and light boxes against Empty and 5WR sets. It is especially valuable for mobile quarterback schemes that need short-yardage and goal line answers or a steady draw game to keep a user-controlled defender honest.
