Jimbo Fisher and the WR Jailbreak screen

The WR would run forward and towards the sidelines a bit, then turn in to the middle of the field and catch it behind some blockers and make plays.
I loved this play. Seemed like when LSU had to have some yards the WRs would run this and get it every time.

Oregon State uses similar blocking for the Rogers brothers.
I saw a game a year or two ago, in which Oregon State pounded the snot out of USCw with that blocking.
I didnt realize that was a Fisher specialty. I kept wanting to see it last season, for LSU.

got a video link to it? i tried LSU screen/doucet/bowe on youtube and could not find a good example.
its a short pass and I think our guys can do it easily.

Reminds me of the Bowe-Davis-Early combo. You are right I have not seen it run like you said since Jimbo was OC.

seems like we used to run it w/ Clayton all the time

It was a money play for us. Come on. LSU is known for some things and one of them is physical WRs and WRs than can block.

bowe caught one vs arkansas in 06 and broke like 5 tackles, awesome

Crowton is the king of the bubble screen. IMO that is why JJ's completion % is high but yds/catch are low. It is not about running the screen, it is about execution of it. with no running game or threat of long passing that play is useless. They will put 8-9 men in the box and stop both the run and the bubble screen. you have to get it past the LB's to make it successful. we were not able to to do that much the last 2 yesrs.

used to run it all the time to Green.
We don't run it, or any screens enough. Don't think anybody does anymore.
When we do run it you sure won't here me whining about it.

Y'all have bitched about the bubble screen for 3 years on here.

No, we bitch about the short side option. The WR bubble screen works.

youtube link to Clayton highlights
2:22 and 2:50 are a couple examples. Man, I loved this guy.

Isn't the play your talking about the slip-screen/ jail-break screen?
Doesn't the bubble screen go towards the sideline?

per wiki
Screens come in many forms. A screen to a running back to either the strong or short side of the field in the flats is often just called a screen. Screens to wide receivers come in four forms: The bubble screen, middle screen, slot screen, and slip screen.
The bubble screen was essentially created by Don Read when he was coach of the Montana Grizzlies. Lou Holtz, head coach of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, brought the play into prominence after calling Read and asking for the play. The bubble screen involves a receiver taking a step forward, then darting toward the quarterback to receive the ball while the linemen release to clear a path for the receiver. The benefit of the bubble screen is it works against zone or man coverage. A downside is that it is dependent on proper timing; a zone blitz or defensive end dropping into coverage can disrupt the timing, and may result in the quarterback being sacked.
The middle screen is like the bubble screen, except instead of being executed to one side of the field or another, the receiver continues his route to the middle of the field. The linemen release up the middle of the field in front of the receiver.

Well the thing that people complain about is the bubble screen where ya pretty much just have the WR step back, throw the ball to him, the other WRs stalk block for him and he must make people miss.
The play that Jimbo ran quite a bit and that was our bread-and-butter during the 07 run is the jailbreak screen. It involves OL releasing and the WR coming back towards the middle of the field. Here's a link of Texas Tech running it with Crabtree.
It is an awesome play and something Crowton has gone away from as he phased Jimbo's playbook out.

The jail-break screen is my favorite play that we have run over the years. Perfect play for Shepard to do damage.

YOU ARE CORRECT! it is all about timing and blocking. your linemen have to release and those WR's have to block.
