OL and binary question


Recommended Posts

Greetings,


 


I've been using some PDF playbooks and online guides to try to create what I want for pass protection.  I want to put slide protection in, but the OL codes are giving me some problems.  Below I have some code and then my questions are bulleted in.


 


  • BT (bottom offensive T) takes the SLB [7]
    • BED9→9EE9:  D8 0C D4 | F3 01 | F0 A0 | FC FF E0 | FD 06 80 | FE 02
      • FE means jump forward from 9ef6…
        • In this case 2 spaces to 9ef8: [not worried about this for the moment]

      • FD binary
        • 06:             0000    0110
        • 08:             0000    1000
        • I think that this is on the 7th player (the SLB, or BOLB).
          • The 5th player is the MLB (4-3) and the 6th is the BDT.
          • Does this mean that the player can only block the along the indicated bytes?  Thus, the player is coded to ignore the TDE, TDT, BDE and T(O)LB because of what’s avaible?
          • Also, is there priority based on the order of the bytes?  In other words, does the BT look for the 6th and 7th players first and if not, then the 5th?




  • BG (bottom offensive G) takes the BDE [3]
    • BEBB→9ECB:  D8 00 E4 | F3 01 | F0 80 | FC FF E0 | FD 2E 00 | FE 20
      • F0 means “face direction”
      • FD is “set to block,” followed by an assignment in binary
        • 2e:             0010    1110
        • 00:             0000    0000
        • I know this is going to the BDE, so the 3rd spot.
          • What is the second half of the string doing?  Why are all of these other spots being called up (the 5th, 6th and 7th players)?  (These are the MLB, BDT and BDE).

        • 20:             0010    0000
        • Why isn’t this sufficient?
        • Similarly, in the above example, why is FD 06 08 being used and not FD 0e 00, which would give you 0000 1110?  Is this not the same?

In the first example the bottom or (right) tackle is set to block the LILB and the LOLB (the two bottom LB's in the 3/4). Also you transposed the code it was 06 80 not 06 08.  So the RT is set to block the LILB, LOBL, and the bottom CB. 


 


In the second example the RG is set to block the LE, and the RILB, LILB, LOLB,. 20 might work but you might have cases where the other players come in blitzes or start to rush in after time has passed . If the original player the guy is blocking is on the ground you don't want the OL sitting not doing anything.
