Introduction to Football: How To Identify Offensive Personnel Groupings ᴴᴰ

X's & O's for the newbies You can't predict the future, but you can get a sense of it. Looking at how an offense lines up—which players are on the field and where they are in the formation—provides clues that give defenses and viewers a sense of what's to come. Suddenly, a game that seems complicated to casual viewers becomes a lot easier to watch. It all starts with identifying the players on the field. The different offensive personnel groupings have different names. If you say "four-wide receiver set," you have some of the information, but there's a system that takes us deeper. In fact, there are standardized ways to name the offensive personnel groupings. Familiarize yourself with the personnel groupings. Here's how it works: Barring nontraditional formations, an offense lines up with five linemen and a quarterback. That leaves five "available" spots on any given play, and those spots will be manned by running backs, tight ends, and wide receivers. Each personnel grouping is named with two numbers. The first number is the number of running backs, and the second is the number of tight ends. So, for example, if a team sends out one running back and two tight ends, it's called 12 personnel. If a team sends out two running backs and one tight end, it's called 21 personnel. Those groupings will each feature two wide receivers since three of the available spots are taken. The 11 personnel is one running back, one tight end and three wide receivers, and so on.
