HB Plays - Passing and Lining up as WR

[miknhoj1983]

Are there any plays where the HB has the option to pass the ball? Is there a way to add to any playbook?

Also, how do I get the HB to lineup as a WR at the line?

I'm not sure what team book it's from, but when making a custom playbook I found a HB Pass out of the I-Form Pro formation. It's a good red zone play (especially inside the 10) and especially dangerous if you have someone like Denard Robinson or even Josh Cribbs that you can line up at HB.
I usually slant the left WR and put the TE on either a block and release or zig route. Risky play but so much fun when it works against a human.

Most sets you can simply flick the right stick in the play select menus until you get to HB Wideout settings (or one of the varieties of this). A lot pre-snap motion with the HB will line them up in the slot. And most empty formations line up the HB out wide.

The Bills playbook has a pistol formation with a package that puts your 4th WR at QB

The Packers has a shotgun with a package the put your HB at QB

There are 2 wildcat formations with pass plays in them

You can add these plays to any existing playbook

I'm trying to make a playbook for my fantasy draft team (Terrelle Pryor, Adrian Peterson, Percy Harvin), and there's actually too many plays.

I want to make my playbook just shotgun and pistol runs, qb runs, wr runs, read option, triple option, screens, and I haven't even got through the shotgun formations and hit 400 plays without even many pass plays.

You can manually put the HB at WR in your depth chart

You can switch to a package that moves the HB to WR by moving the right stick at the formation screen

You can manually sub the hb in at wr by pushing RB (xbox 360) at the formation screen
