Miami ran a double dagger concept vs FSU for a go ahead TD to Brevin. They ended up getting Brevin iso with a LB playing man 1. That was an example of isolating on a linebacker that I praised.
The top concept shows a nice wrinkle on an over concept. The funny thing is Miami runs a play similar to this. A pitchfork over concept. The field #2 however is running a drag and up. (That is the wrinkle) The tight concept aspect of it was countered by the vikings going heavy in the box with a backside cover 1 man.
Good scout. Good look. Good design. That is a shock play drawn up in advance. My guess was because they probably knew how the Vikings like to combat that tight look. Little coverage bust. Didn't help that two defenders went to the HB. Plus play needs time. Does this offensive line give you that time?
Nothing fancy about the bottom. Viking's got caught bracketing the 3 side to the field with the opposite side boundary safety. When the safety vacates the # 1 look is taken away and the QB does a great job of throwing them where they aint. HB is one on one and takes the lb's cookies.
Actually I really like this wrinkle in the boundary for the Canes. Richt runs a TON of bang 8/ flat concepts with the X and HB. Something like that could combat the tenancy.
Thanks for the breakdown man. Much appreciated! Good question/point brought up about whether the o-line could hold up that long to let that first play develop. Hopefully, MR can put his ego to the side and bring someone in with a better offensive mind to help the team next year and the years after.
