Care to explain? Phillip is aligned on the backside of trips. Single receiver side. There's a high safety to that side, it's a 3 on 2 [Corner, $ and LB vs. WR and RB]. Trips checks are their own coverages. Some call it cover 2, some called it Cover 3 Cloud, some give it a specific name since it's only to be used on the backside of trips. Some called it Soft quarter-quarter-half.
Again, care to explain? The shown route is a curl/bubble, but it ends up being a doub
le move by the #1 receiver.
It's called an Oop-dee-oop. Overload the defense on one side, burn them one-on-one on the other.
I'm not sure if that's the correct term, but that's a common strategy, especially in high school. A lot of teams like to line up their best receiver on the back side of trips and throw him a variety of routes, usually deep balls.
The only way that strategy works at higher levels is if the offense is consistently hurting the defense on trips side routes or in the run game to the trips side. Most teams will keep a safety over the top and a corner under that single receiver (or the opposie of that , which would be a sky concept - aka cover 3), much like we did in in play 12.
Most youth and high school coaches just assume that everyone is playing cover 1 or something similar; in fact you often see offenses line up in a doubles formation and motion the boundary slot to the field, creating a trips formation. That might leave the solo receiver on an island with the corner against man coverage teams, but that will not be the case against a zone team.
If the defense is consistently being hurt to the trips side, then you might see the defense turn to what some teams call "Solo" trips coverage. This is the overload idea that you mentioned. The Secondary will maintain the exact same look as in play 12, but the safety's eye would be on #3 to the trips side. He will begin a pre snap cheat to the middle of the field, and play a deep wall technique on any vertical route by #3 If no vertical by #3, then he will look for work in the deep middle. That corner will move to an inside leverage pre snap alignment and play no help man to man on the "solo" #1 receiver.
Another example of that overload idea would be a hard quarter-quarter-half coverage. which would put the strong side corner in a hard flat, strong side safety in the outside quarter, weak side safety in the middle quarter and the weak side corner in a deep half -- with an ILB covering the flat. In this situation the short and intermediate routes to the back side of trips are open.
Again these are examples of defensive strategies that your "ooptieoop" would work well against. As you can see, the ball was thrown to the trips side. Pre snap, the QB probably saw a balanced secondary, so he had to attack the trips side.
