A “tandem block” is a blocking scheme in American football in which two offensive linemen collaborate to tackle one or more defensive players. By widening the gap in the defensive line, the running back can make greater progress toward the line of scrimmage, which is a common goal in running plays.
Allow me to explain:
In tandem blocking, the offensive linemen work together perfectly, exchanging information and knowing whether to switch to a different defender or keep a double-team block going. The running game’s success heavily depends on how well the squad uses tandem blocks.
