I call this play money but whatever you want to name it works.
Based out of shotgun 4 wide, couple different variations in formation are fine. I use a play action block if its a rb, if its a te Ill usually block the te or short curl as a final option
Everyone should know that the #1WR is USUALLY far right, Far left is #2, Slot left is #3, Slot right is #4 but if you didnt now you do.
Routes
WR#1 wheel left(inside)
WR#2 Cross
WR#3 Deep/Medium Post
WR#4 Hitch And Go
Wr#1 is going to motion between the LT and the slot receiver(closer to the lt), thus making his wheel an outside instead of inside wheel(method to the madness). I make the post the #1 read, cross the #2, wheel the #3 and the hitch and go the #4 for the qb reads(5 is the te if you put him on a route, maybe a drag...)
This play will work on 1-4th down any distance, but be weary of using it against UBER AGGRESIVE BLITZERS as there isnt much protection if that te/rb is on a route instead of a block or play action. Thats why I used to only make it on Shotgun formations with a rb play action but I stole a 4 wr 1 te play and it works fine with the custom curl it had. I am however the chargers with an amazing line and a very good olc. My hc for the first time in forever is a wr and db coach instead of ol/dl!
As with anything, go to the well too often and the water will run dry so try to keep the usage score on this lower than 3% on any down and distance(short medium and long). Just because its a 3% usage on 1st and long, doesnt mean it is on 1st and short, or 2nd and medium, or 3rd and long.
Also, this play will lose its strength some on 3rd and 4th because the d will call a dime usually or at least a nickle. But 1st and 2nd it is 100% success usually.
