11v11 Tackleonly
QB lined up at ~4 yds (between under-center and shotgun depth) with one back directly behind at ~7 yds. Combines shotgun's passing visibility with the I-formation's downhill run threat. Lots of misdirection options because the RB's path isn't telegraphed by alignment.
Pistol isn't run in 5v5 Flag.
