PA Saints Shot (Deep Shot Play)
It can be helpful to roll out to the right a little on this play. If you make your reads correctly, at least 1 receiver should be open every time you run this play.

Put your X/square receiver on an out route and smart route him
Put your tight end on an in route and smart route him
Block your running back to cancel the play action
(Recommended) Double team the outside most rusher on the left side of the screen

If you have a good/fast receiver in the B/circle WR spot, he should get open deep against cover 2, cover 2 men, cover 3, and cover 4 (see the video for timing and lead passing)
PA Saints Shot (Base Play)
This 3 man route combination can drive your opponent nuts just because of how hard it is to defend both the B/circle receiver and the X/square receiver at the same time.
Setup:
Put the B/circle receiver on a hitch route
Put the tight end on a streak route
Do whatever you want with your running backs
Reads:
Your B/circle receiver on a hitch route should get open for a 5 yard pass against 90% of zone coverages you see.
