The Sean McVay style of offense branches directly off of the wide zone offense from Kyle Shanahan’s version of the wide zone offense. The main difference between the two is that Shanahan likes to use a lot of 12 personnel and boot-action while McVay likes to run his offense out of 11 personnel.
Due to running a lot of 11 personnel, the offense asks more from the wide receivers from a blocking perspective. They are asked to get down and dirty when it comes to blocking while also being explosive down the field.
