DIAGRAM: This is a great play to use anywhere on the field, but it’s especially effective near the goal line.
The players assignments and responsibilities are as follows:
Right End: Blocks down for a two-count, then releases 8 yards deep and 3 yards outside of his initial alignment.
Right OT: Blocks from the gap on.
Right OG: Pulls, kicks out the the first defender past the right OT.
Center: Blocks fire, on.
Left OG, OT: Provide protection on the backside.
Left End: Runs at the opposite flag at the corner of the end zone.
Fullback: Fills for the pulling right OG.
Halfback: Fakes the 29 sweep, blocks off the edge of the backside OT.
Wingback: Releases slowly and breaks underneath the left end. He must adjust his pattern according to the depth of the cornerback and linebacker drops.
Quarterback: Fakes the 29 sweep, sets up the inside of the pulling OG, pump fakes to the tight end and executes a throwback to the WB.
