Every offense has that play. My team call it Trips 322 slide.  The 3 means quick throw, the 2's mean double slants and then the # 3 WR in the trips runs the slide.  We teach the Wr's to run the slants into the inside shoulder of the defenders onto the middle of the field. This clears the flats. You run that because  its hard for the #3 defender to get to the slide because he has to go around the slants which give the WR enough separation to catch the ball if the ball is delivered fast enough. Thats the general way that teams run it.   My team run  this all the time on the goal line especially during 7v7 competitions over the summer.  Most teams play man inside the 10 yd line so its a popular play.   We dont tell our WR's to start blocking the defenders inside so the defenders cant cover the slide. You have to actually run a route. ND WR's didn't attempt to run a route.  If you allow this then teams will pick every play so they can get a WR free.  ND executed poorly and banked on it not being called.  The only time you can block a defender down the field before the ball is thrown is when its a pass thrown behind the LOS.  Thats always been the rule.
