ANCHORS: Anchors Can do the Following with the Football:
a) Receive a backward pass or pitch behind the LOS – the pass (like a Bubble Screen or Negative Hitch) or the pitch (Option or Reverse) only has to be less than one-inch backwards to be legal, etc.
b) Take a handoff behind the LOS
c) Throw a forward pass from behind the LOS once the football is in their hands legally
d) Receive a Pitch down field beyond the LOS once the football has crossed the Neutral Zone, as a pitch back during an Option play or the Hook and Ladder, for example
4. Often by formation, the Anchors are spread out wide beyond the Hash Marks, and they have excellent pre-snap Leverage outside of the Defensive Ends or Outside Linebackers. This enables the Anchors to execute the HUNT Block in a variety of ways working from the outside – in. The Hunt block can be a bone-crushing “Blind Side” type of block when the Defender does not see the Anchor coming – such as during a Sprint Out pass play or sweep action. Or, the Hunt block can be a slower more methodical block, where the Anchor will simply be patient and execute his assignment, looking for work and picking out a defender to screen off from the ball carrier.
5. Anchors can legally go down field beyond the LOS during all running plays and Screen passes completed to other backs behind the LOS
These are some of the job descriptions of the new Anchor position. In 2009, it will be very exciting to watch Anchors handle the football, block, throw, run and catch…

Mason's first pass was dropped. His second was batted down at the line. But when the junior hit Darrian Johnson in stride coming across the middle late in the first quarter, the quarterback started to settle in. Johnson broke into the Woodbridge secondary for a 44-yard gain--Stafford's first first down of the game. As on several promising drives, though, the Indians stalled. |
