This idea for trick football plays was sent to me from Todd.  It includes some great plays you can begin using with your team right away. Trick Football Plays

From Todd…
My contribution is an easy football play which has worked in EVERY big situation where I needed it.  It works if you are out manned and playing against an aggressive defense with disciplined ends.

Here it is.
Set up the play with any off tackle/off end run.  Not a sweep.  I use a blast out of the I or split backs with the fullback leading hard.
Next play you run the same formation and even have the kids “slip” that it’s the same play.  BUT, the QB gives a good fake and keeps the ball.  The tail acts like he has the ball tucked in deep in his stomach.  The QB then stops with his back to the line of scrimmage and delays with the ball hidden in his belly for 1001 count.  He then runs around the opposite end to the surprise of all.

You may have used this before, but I have never seen it used except by us.  It is extremely important to give great fakes AND delay prior to running.  It is the delay that sucks in that disciplined end.
