This was a great educational video of the Air Raid offense. A lot of people throw the term around but you really broke it down and made it easy to understand. GREAT WORK!!
Update.. my first time using this strategy and creating the playbook...I used the Browns, Baker Mayfield had 200+ passing yards in the 1st half. You are a national treasure. Thank you sincerely for your work 🙏🏾
Hal Mumme coached under June Jones at SMU in 2013 and they mixed in some Air Raid concepts with the Run and Shoot so you might want to look into that. I'm not all to familiar with what they pulled in from each offense, but my understanding is that it was mainly mesh, shallow and some quick game. They replaced some of the underneath or shorter hitting plays from the shoot with those.
@@maddenairraid they added stick and mesh and added a under tag to their Streak package in trips as a form of Shallow. The rest was run and shoot. Mumme was brought in in part to help them add tempo to the smu rns offense. Afterwards mumme ran Mesh with a choice route instead of a deep out and borrowed a few other rns ideas for what he called Air Raid 2.0.
There's a lot of similarities. The air raid is Lavell Edwards' offense which has a lot of overlap with the west coast stripped down to be ace of a few instead of jack of many while maximizing spreading the field and playing with a high tempo.
@@jmgonzales7701 It depends on the coach. They aren't necessarily trying to waste time but they typically aren't going up tempo. That changes with coaches and their particular brand of west coast.
This was so detailed With the progression/reads and audibles. I can tell that this 33 min video took over 10 hrs to make. The best thing I learned from this was the term 'Automatics'
Hey bud, just want to say, out of all the madden 22 tips content, the way you presented this with a thorough knowledge as a football guy is tremendous. I cannot say enough about this. I am a big football fan, but my understanding of real football concepts, and thus the air raid was close to nill. Your images, with your simple presentation, and your ability to break this thing down is superb. Really. You have done a tremendous job, and should be incredibly proud of this work. You've helped me unlock a level of my game, but also have created a bit of an Air Raid disciple, and I look to emmerse myself fully in understanding it further. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
I know this is an old video, but I’m just getting back into Madden and I’m an air raid aficionado, so this video was amazing prep on how to play Madden like the late Mike Leach (RIP). Great content man. Do you think you’ll do anything for Madden 24?
This helped me tremendously brother thanks. When I coached high school ball I felt like this was the offense we should have been running my qb was a Kyler Murray type. Plus he ran a 4.29
@@playmker2002Take a triangle stretch like Flood, RNS Go, Stick, etc and look at what receivers remain to see what area is not covered by the existing stretches. That's how you get a rhombus stretch. It's rare that you'll get a pentagonal stretch, but it can be done by figuring out a route that fills the void left by a rhombus stretch like levels flood, drive, slant-arrow, 4 verts, etc. 2212 is a great example of taking a horizontal stretch like double slant and adding some other route like a table route from a HB in order to stretch the defense out in a triangular fashion. You can guess from the 12 that the inside receiver on the weak side runs an arrow/flat route while the outside receiver runs a slant.
I coach Air Raid in high school and I can say this. If you're a player or coach or just a fan, playing Madden and running the same concepts will teach you how run this system. I have game night for my qb's on Saturdays and it has helped. I myself average about 400 ypg passing using the spread playbook. Trips and 2x2 (ace) and split offset with 2 backs are my main formations. I run a total of about 7 plays. I smh when I see someone playing with Chiefs and throw deep to Hill all the time. A simple quick screen or slant can do just as much damage with his speed.
I might get around to one eventually. NCAA 14 has a lot of good stuff that Madden doesn't have, but Madden managed to run some plays closer to how Leach did it than both what Kingsbury did in the NFL and what NCAA 14 had for Leach.
@@maddenairraid honestly it doesn’t have to be as in-depth. I’ll take whatever you can put together. I love the air raid. It’s my new favorite offense. I was a Run and Shoot guy. But if you can’t that’s cool.
You want to start out deleting everything except the pistol formations, then adding everything back. I'll make a video showing how to do it and upload in the next couple of days.
@@maddenairraid I can't wait for that video! Have any updates. Would love to be able to have some way to figure out some way to "shortcut" where those 12 core passing plays are
For the most part it's the exact same reads for each concept regardless of formation. There are some small differences with 3x1 vs 2x2, but it's really just the same plays for the majority of it with some constraint plays mixed in.
Split your concepts over 3 days. Day 1 you have set a set of quick game concepts, drop back concepts, and screens/specials. Do that over the 3 days getting reps against different defensive coverages. Go into H2H after practice but only carry those concepts for that day.
Not really. He has the trips and 2x2 spread sets, but uses a lot more of tight end attached, sniffer, and h-back sets. It's a 11 base personnel system that also uses a hybrid 12/21 approach with the h-back playing a flex role and some 10 personnel. Concept wise it's similar with a few tweaks, play action, and counter.
@@AreYouFNQRAZII I could add it to the list of videos I want to make, but there will be a lot of things in front of it. It's not easy to replicate in Madden due to the lack of counter trey runs from shotgun, and the game's versions of basic air raid concepts don't really match up well with how he runs them.
Yes, teams like Oklahoma use versatile personnel groupings to prevent defenses from being able to substitute while chaning formations. At Arizona State Gronk played a hybrid type of roll where he would line up at receiver and they would "audible down" to sets where he was a true tight end.
@@maddenairraid U of Arizona in Tucson is gronks alma mater not ASU just a typo in sure but had to correct you as a gronks fan and Arizona football fan. Thanks for this guide agree it's the best.
Great video, I really enjoyed how you broke the qb progression down. It's very easy to follow and now my knowledge of the game has increased thanks to your video.
@@maddenairraid why do you say it will be a limited playbook without using a custom? Aren't all the plays you just showed in Arizona's playbook? I'm a regs player and I never use custom pb.
@@BIGNOSEPOPPA Concept wise yes you can find the stuff in there, but it might only be in one formation. The only good Y cross in there is in pistol spread and empty base. From the shotgun spread formation you can get another good Y cross, and there are a few others in the HB wk formations. Y sail is something you have in a 2x2 and 3x1 set, but it's not in Arizona's 3x2 set. Your run game is also limited from shotgun with no counters to the strong side, so people can sell out to the opposite side of the HB to stop most shotgun runs. On top of that there's a bunch of other junk in there that you will never use
@@maddenairraid I notice on all the plays you didn't make any adjustments is that a good thing bc the defense can't setup or do you do adjustments just didn't show them in this video?

Triangle, rhombus, and pentagon stretches are all super underrated and aren't discussed enough!
Can you explain examples of route combos that would arrive to threse stretches
So many geometry

Thanks for this scheme. I’m probably going to I form h slot open to have another 2 back formation that spreads the field with good run plays
This is great content! You should do one for the air raid in NCAA 14! People are still playing that game religiously. I’d love to see it!

I haven't. One day I will.
Great video...but you def have to show where you got the plays...without that we will be adding full sets and figuring out what to delete

Good stuff bro!!!
It's the Run and Shoot offense. This is something that you didn't invented. 😮

What's the playbook called
IS there a full breakdown of every play in every formation in this book?
For the most part it's the exact same reads for each concept regardless of formation. There are some small differences with 3x1 vs 2x2, but it's really just the same plays for the majority of it with some constraint plays mixed in.

Another question... Are the formations that Lincoln Riley uses at OU for his "Power Raid" offense that much different from the pure Air Raid offense?
Not really. He has the trips and 2x2 spread sets, but uses a lot more of tight end attached, sniffer, and h-back sets. It's a 11 base personnel system that also uses a hybrid 12/21 approach with the h-back playing a flex role and some 10 personnel.
