Developing a Gap Blocking Scheme: Run Blocking in the Bolt Offensive System, by Joe Osovet, details three basic offensive line schemes that are used to block over two dozen different running plays in this unique spread offense.
The video explains why using only a few schemes allows for more development and practice of blocking fundamentals and techniques, as well as simplification of the cognitive process for the offensive linemen.
The video also looks at why this no-huddle offense, with a simple gap blocking scheme, allows the offense to play fast, as well as enables the quarterback to make a pre- or post-snap read of a single defensive player.
In addition, Coach Osovet describes multiple plays that can be matched to each scheme.
Among the topics covered:
- Toro
- Ram
- Leave 2 scheme
- Panther boss
- Blue jay
- Demon blocking scheme
- Bounce
- Sniper
- Cut-ups
