Trips Flood Wheel builds on the traditional Flood concept by replacing the flat route with a wheel, creating an explosive vertical threat after the defense expands underneath. The concept still creates a three-level stretch while adding pressure on safeties and sideline defenders.

Flood Bootleg combines play-action movement with a three-level flood stretch, forcing defenders to flow with the run fake before defending layered routes across the sideline. The quarterback rolls outside with a simple deep-to-short progression and a built-in checkdown underneath.

Trips Flood stretches the defense across three levels on one side of the field, giving the quarterback a simple deep-to-short progression. The vertical route clears space deep, the out route attacks the intermediate sideline window, and the flat route provides an immediate underneath outlet.

Hook Concept (Wheel Stop from the inside man and 12 back to 10 yard snag route from the outside) from the farthest outside and farthest inside men with the middle guy in the trips running a curl as a checkdown. Ricky pass coverage (Ricky=rollout right). X dig on the backside to flood any middle safety's zone or such as a backside cover 2 safety. Could possibly sit the Dig down in open grass in the middle of the field against any zone. Play works against cover 2 or man.

Mesh with backside 10-yard out and RB leak.
Creates horizontal traffic underneath (mesh), a sideline outlet (out), and a delayed vertical from the back.

Core: Mesh (X + Y shallow cross)
Backside WR: 10-yard out (timing / sideline throw)
RB: Delayed leak upfield (late explosive option)

Slant-Flat from 11 personnel. Read the curl-flat defender to the concept side: throw the slant if he widens, throw the flat if he hangs inside. Backside slant serves as access or alert based on leverage.

Hook Concept (Wheel Stop from the inside man and 12 back to 10 yard snag route from the outside) from the farthest outside and farthest inside men with the middle guy in the trips running a curl as a checkdown. Ricky pass coverage (Ricky=rollout right). X dig on the backside to flood any middle safety's zone or such as a backside cover 2 safety. Could possibly sit the Dig down in open grass in the middle of the field against any zone. Play works against cover 2 or man.

A simple clear out in a 2x2 formation. Can be run with 21 or 11 personnel.

The two crossers work to create traffic and force defenders to navigate through congestion. Their goal is to generate leverage underneath by creating hesitation, miscommunication, or natural rubs across the middle of the field.
