Scissors

The Scissors tag identifies plays built on the post-corner switch concept, where the outside receiver runs a post while the inside receiver or tight end breaks to the corner, creating a crossing stem that stresses Cover 2, Cover 3, and Quarters safeties with a two-level vertical conflict. It covers 51 plays across 45 sets in Shotgun, Singleback, Pistol, Strong I, and I Form, including PA Scissors, PA TE Scissors, Deep Fork, and Redzone Scissors variations. Filtering by this tag lets competitive players quickly build a zone-beating shot package, pair it with play-action rollouts and run looks from the same sets, and keep a reliable red zone corner route ready for pre-snap audibles.
