If you turn a football game on on TV,

the announcers might be saying something like, 'The quarterback is in the shotgun

position.'

Or 'They're in a double back set.'

And it can get kind of confusing as to what they're talking about

so in this video I want to take a look at the most common offensive formations

and what they look like.

The offensive team can either pass or run from any type of formation

and all of them have eleven players on the field, so I suppose none of them would

be any more 'complicated' than any other,

but you could probably call

the I-formation the most basic

offensive formation.

The Basic I-formation consists of two wide receivers, two running backs, and

one tight end.

The running backs will line up with the fullback behind the quarterback and the

halfback behind the fullback.

The tight end is on the end of the offensive line and the wide receivers are

out wide.

So you can see how the quarter back and the running backs form this "I."

There are a few variations you can make on the formation
