Unlock the Swinging Gate Play: A Game-Changing Two-Point Conversion from the Rochester Offense

When you’re looking for a two point play, it’s usually during one of the most critical moments of the game. That’s why it can be extremely valuable to show the defense something they haven’t seen before and catch them off guard.

Rochester Head Coach Derek Leonard knows that as well as anyone, and that’s exactly what we’re talking about in today’s email.

This is taken directly from our newest release: “101 Plays from the Rochester Offense

Swinging Gate Side Snap & Lateral

The offensive line starts out in what looks like a normal alignment, but before the snap, the entire line moves to the right, and the man who starts at center is now over the ball, having originally lined up at left tackle.

An added bonus of running different O-Line shifts is that you can create some opportunities for a side-snap like in a swinging gate play. The Rockets have four players lined up to one side here, and since the center is on the end of the O-Line, he can either snap it to the QB or side snap it here.

Discover the creative and deceptive "Swinging Gate" play from the Rochester Offense, a game-changing two-point conversion strategy that catches defenses off guard. Learn how this play and over 100 more innovative tactics can elevate your offensive game.

In this example the side snap goes to the RB who takes it and laterals to the QB running wide around the corner who runs into the end zone for the score. The initial side snap sucks in the defense and there’s no one left on the edge for the lateral.

This is a great wrinkle if you’ve already run some kind of swinging gate play in the past, and the defense is likely to collapse on the first runner with the football.
