Official Jon Gruden Thread IV

Ok, so spider 2 versus spider 3 is a slight difference in protection only?


Someone else said that about 30 minutes ago. I am a slow learner

I am only assuming but I think spider 2 TE lines up to right of formation and spider 3 TE is on left. Really the same formation just flipped.

 

[Escape Goat]

Yes,the one with me on the cover.

I will have to hop on my laptop and check it out.

My Maine Coon weighs around 20lbs and his paws are huge..Plus he has an extra toe on one of them.

Wow. That's called being polydaxil or some name. Used to have one like that.

I found one site that states the fullback either fakes into the 2 hole...on the right....or the 3 hole...on the left.


Don't know if that is correct?

I believe that is it also. If you look in the video of Gruden's QB camp with Andrew Luck, he draws Spider 2 Y Banana and the play is to the right. Later, they show a video of him running Spider 3 Y Banana at Stanford, and the play is to the left.

So what is the difference between 2 and 3?

2 is FB/ TE (banana route) to the right

3 is the same play left

Yeah,my hubby did some research on it but I can't remember the name,it's a fancy name that has escaped me at the moment.:crazy:

This.

Spider is a slide pass protection.

Looks like there is a version of the play on Maaden 2013 that has the fullback faking inside and the RB running the flat route.

[volfan4evr]

This has probably already been posted: briefly painted on the rock today ( before being hastily painted over): "The Derek Doolander School for coaches who can't coach good who want to learn to coach good "

 

[JayVols]

Thanks!

I've only schemed against a West Coast offense a few times, but this is a staple play in many offenses. Slipping the FB into the flats off play action is a biatch to defend.

One thing to keep in mind is that each coach has their own unique terminology for the same things. It's confusing at times.

 

[volfan411]

This.

Spider is a slide pass protection.

Is the play designed to go strong side or is there a read to the weak side. It looks like the design is to flood the strong side.

 

[BlueTick Vol]

Just had about a 30 minute conversation with the dude that snapped the pic of Gruden on the flight, and he is adamant even in a business setting that he was indeed watching the game and taking notes. Talk about right place right time.

The UT/USC game?

With the backside slot running a cross to strong side it has the effect of flooding strong side.

Hey I live in Huntsville, crap AL. Need to know what time Basilio show starts. Caught about 30mins of it today.

11am EST.

I always attack the weak side...but thats just me .. but at time i will load a unbalanced line to the weak side, and run play to strong side.. you just gotta set it up..
