1000 thanks to anyone who finds a formation that lets me handoff to Percy Harvin

I'm a diehard Vikings fan who just wants to replicate how effectively Percy is being used this year. All I've found so far are jet sweeps, reverses, and occasionally bubble screens to get him the ball in the backfield.


Team playbook, package sub, whatever! Help meee

The Dolphins and Patriots must have something. Against both teams i have seen their #1 WR line up next to the QB in shotgun. However, i'm not entirely sure I've seen the QB then hand it off.

I'm pretty sure it's just random in the game.

Unfortunately, we can't put WR's on the depth chart or quick sub them in.

An excellent start nonetheless! I'll start the scouring.

As for Acera? What do you mean by random?

There are some plays in the Vikes playbook that you can run with him when he comes in motion.

Re: 1000 thanks to anyone who finds a formation that lets me handoff to Percy Harvin

I wish formation subs would be in the game still. Never understood why it went missing when I swore we had it in one of the games recently (can't remember which year exactly).

I'd love to use Randall Cobb sometimes on maybe a delayed pass out of the backfield in shotgun or on one of the delayed draws just to switch it up since I don't have a very reliable or speed back at all. They dev team gas done good adding things we wanted, just don't take away some of the simple things.

I'm stuck being torn to use him as my 3rd down back knowing on 3rd and 1 I will wanna run it, and I don't wanna leave him as the RB when I wanna use him as my 4th receiver at times.

Re: 1000 thanks to anyone who finds a formation that lets me handoff to Percy Harvin

mess around with something like this....

go 4-5 WR....then audible to a Run play that has a FB....(usually this will cause 1 of the WRs to go line up in the backfield as a FB....then maybe u can audible to like a FB dive)

also, if u go 5 wide (with no RB) then audible to a run, 1 of those WRs would have to go in the backfield i'd imagine..

Re: 1000 thanks to anyone who finds a formation that lets me handoff to Percy Harvin

After spending the last couple hours searching, I've found a play!

Shotgun- Split Close. The formation allows you to sub in a WR at the FB position where a TE normally resides.

The play is Close FB Inside. WOOOO. Can't find any other formations in the gun to allow me to make that sub, so this is pretty significant for me.

Though formation subs are practically gone, thank god they still let us use custom playbooks online.
