9-Man Flexbone: Running Rocket Toss v. 4-3
October 23, 2025
In today’s video, 9-Man Flexbone: Running Rocket Toss vs. 4-3, Dr. Lou Cella breaks down how to destroy a 4-3 defense with precision, timing, and explosive execution. The rocket toss gives you an immediate perimeter threat, but it’s only effective when your players understand how to align, motion, and block within the structure of the Flexbone system. In this breakdown, Dr. Cella shows you how to use motion and leverage to outflank a defense designed to stop inside plays. He explains exactly how to manipulate force and alley defenders while maintaining complete control of the play’s geometry.
Furthermore, you’ll see how to identify defensive overplays and use the rocket toss to punish undisciplined edge defenders. But more importantly, you’ll learn how this ties directly into the entire Triple Option system—creating an offense that always has an answer. Because when you’re running the 9-Man Flexbone the right way, every defensive reaction becomes an offensive opportunity.
