Offensive personnel groupings..

If you listen to a lot of coaches interviews you hear them say 11 personnel! Some don't know what that is and it just sounds like jiberish! A lot might, but I am gonna share with you what they mean then you can know.

In calling out personnel groupings you identify the number of running backs and tight ends in a formation. This is so you can identify the strong side of the formation.

-11 personnel is (1 back, 1 TE,) so that means 3 wideouts and a quarterback
-21 personnel is ( 2 backs, 1 TE) so that means 2 wideouts and a quarterback
-10 personnel is (1 back, 0 TEO so that means 4 wide personnel.
-00 is basically 5 wide or empty
- 12 is ( 1 back and 2 TE) so likely 3 wides
- 22 personnel is (2 backs, 2 TE) likely one wide.

Obviously there are many others, but I figure you get it now.if you don't no worries just ask.

Unless you don't put 5 linemen down you can at max only have 6 skill guys on the field at Ny one time.  Only 5 at any one time can be eligible unless you declare a tackle eligible then of course you have to uncover him. I hope that helps with basically terminology of personnel groupings. When coaches say that now you can identify what they are meaning. Your buddy can say man that was a nice outside run,then you can reply "yeah" that was done because of the 21 personnel out leveraging the defense.

Hope you enjoy.
