In those daya, three line men were poated on either aid of the renter, a quarterback right be hind the center and tha other three backa In a row about five yarda bac k of the line. It waa almoal linpoaalble to ran to tha oulalde from thla aetup, how. ever, ao coachea organ experiment ing with flankrra. That la. they pooled one of the barka oulalde the end ao ha could block and clear tha way for a play around end. Thla led to tha alngle and double wing formations, tha Invention of menu irnpi warner. your men wer atatloned to one aide of the center, two en the other In whut la known aa an unbalanced line, creating a "atrone" and a "weak" aide.
