Dennis Creehan's Attacking with the Wing-T Series

Attacking the 5-3 Defense with the Wing-T

with Dennis Creehan,
former West Virginia Wesleyan College Head Coach;
former Calgary Stampeders (CFL) Defensive Coordinator

Coach Creehan continues his string of excellent Wing-T videos with this discussion on how to beat the 5-3. The key to beating the 5-3 defense, according to Creehan, is spreading out the defense with open formations. Five pass plays are shown along with 14 running plays including an option and inside and outside counters. The 14 plays are shown in both belly and buck option series. Every play looks alike, making it difficult for the defense to read. Also, every play covers both sides of the defense from flank to flank.

This video will also help you chew up the Bear, Double Eagle, and 46 defenses, which are variations of the 5-3 defense.
