Hb Screen

The Hb Screen tag groups every halfback screen concept in the database, covering 211 plays across 8 formations (Singleback, Shotgun, Pistol, I Form, Strong I, Weak I, Split Backs, and Far) and 183 sets like Gadget Backfield, 4WR Trips Strong, and Y Off Trips Close, with HB Slip Screen being the most common variation. These plays let linemen release to set up a convoy for the back, making them a go-to counter against heavy blitz pressure, nano blitz setups, and defenders who sell out on the pass rush. Filter by this tag to find which sets pair your screen with play-action looks, RPO tendencies, or matching run fakes, so you can build a screen package that punishes aggressive defenses without breaking your formation tendencies.
