In the first DVD of the Gun Rocket Series, Blair Hubbard teaches you the basics of an offense that has maintained a scoring average of over 37 points a game, 4700 yards of offense per season, and has led to a record of 58-5 from 2006-10 including two undefeated championship seasons.
Coach Hubbard teaches the rocket sweep from a shotgun set and shows very simple, unique techniques for building an offensive series around the Gun Rocket Sweep. These techniques allow all of the complementary plays associated with an under center rocket sweep series to be used from a shotgun set.
Whether you are a spread team, gun-power team, spinner series team, or hybrid wing-t team, you will see the benefits associated with utilizing the rocket sweep out of a shotgun set.
This DVD includes:
- Diagrams and adjustments for the rocket sweep
- Offensive position numbering and terminology
- A formation system allowing for over 5,000 different looks
- Motions and pre-snap shifts
- Play calling system
- 10 creative uses for wristbands including lineman rules wristbands
- and much more!
The gun fly-sweep and gun jet-sweep has given shotgun-based teams an opportunity to get the ball in the hands of their athletes and attack the perimeter of the defense.
No matter what type of gun-based offense you run, the rocket sweep will make your offense more productive.

After establishing the gun rocket sweep in the first DVD of the Gun Rocket Series, Blair Hubbard shows you how the dynamic effect of the rocket sweep affects a defense in other areas.
Once a defense starts to lean, run, shift, and adjust to the rocket sweep, they will weaken themselves in other areas. The first area to attack when defenses attempt to chase down the rocket sweep is the off-tackle area.
Coach Hubbard starts with examples of the rocket sweep and shows how the reaction of defenders makes them vulnerable to being attacked. Due to the unique backfield mechanics of the Gun Rocket Offense, you will see how traditional rocket sweep complements from under center can be applied to a gun-based offense.
Hubbard breaks down three plays to attack the off-tackle area: Power, Down, and Speed Option. He details the blocking schemes against odd and even fronts and shows them to the strong and weak side.
You will also learn how to adjust these plays to feature an athletic, running quarterback or insert a "wild cat" athlete and take advantage of the formation opportunities available when going empty. Utilizing a running QB allows you to spread a defense with empty formations or take advantage of what Hubbard calls bonus offensive players.
The addition of Speed Option to the off-tackle attack forces defenses to play assignment football and becomes the change-up to the rocket sweep's fastball. Hubbard shows you how he makes the Speed Option a three-way play: QB power, QB sweep, or a pitch to the motion man.
Hubbard includes many film examples of each off-tackle play, which makes it easier for you to break down the nuances of each play.

Once the rocket sweep and off-tackle complements have been established, it's time to attack inside and with misdirection to take advantage of overly aggressive defensive players who are trying to run to the rocket sweep.
Due to the speed at which the rocket sweep hits, defenses are forced to run and rally to the perimeter to stop the sweep. When teams start to do that, they become vulnerable to the inside game and misdirection. Blair Hubbard gives you rocket sweep examples, identifies the reactions of the inside and backside defenders and shows you when it's time to attack inside and with misdirection.
The backfield mechanics of this offense make it easy to attack inside with trap and gut and attack the backside with counters. This DVD includes:
- Diagrams of Trap vs an even and odd front
- Diagrams of Gut vs an even and odd front
- Diagrams of Counter vs an even and odd front
Hubbard includes many film examples of each off-tackle play, which makes it easier for you to break down the nuances of each play.

The Gun Rocket Offense has been extremely effective and efficient over the past five seasons averaging 18 TD passes per season and surrendering less than seven interceptions and seven sacks per season.
In order to defend the rocket sweep, defenses are forced to make adjustments to their normal defense. Often those adjustments come from the defensive backfield through aligning safeties close to the line of scrimmage or rotating the defensive backfield with motion. Through film breakdowns and detailed descriptions, Blair Hubbard will show you how and where to attack these adjustments.
This DVD includes:
- Quick Passing Game
- Rocket Sweep Play Action Passing
- Boot Pass Game
- Sprint Out Passing Game
- Screen Game
Not only will you learn how and where to attack with the quick passing game, but you will learn the play action passing game and screen game that has been developed around the gun rocket sweep action.
When the defense adjusts to your sweep, make them pay with the pass!
