I do not want my QB making hot throws away from concept side so we use backs in protection. Great thing about football is you can do things however you are comfortable. No set way to do any one thing
Coach. I coach at a high school in a NorCal Div 1 high school. In probably the strongest League in NorCal and I also coach at a QB Academy and do individual sessions with QBs college level to peewee kids. I couldn't tell you just how many college QBs we have produced from the Academy, but, I can say this...for the at least the past ten years, every starting QB from the high school I am now at has gone on to play QB at a four university, and all but one of the QBs I have coached on the three high schools I have been on staff has gone on to play QB at a four year university as well. The one kid that hasn't, I lost track of him when I moved to a local jc and he might have. I left as he was going into his SR season. I think there is an easier way to teach your QB how to read the defense quickly and how to ensure your progression is always left, middle, right or right, middle, left (based on his orientation to his first read) in order that he can move his eyes from receiver to receiver and his eyes move his feet to maintain an open stance so with each one inch buzzing hitch he makes he is ready to throw the ball. Good eyes and fast feet. If he reads out to flat then back to the shallow cross he is not able to maintain a one direction movement and has to now hitch back the opposite direction? How does he do that with his feet? Does he drop another cross over step and orient himself to the shallow cross? Or does he do a T step shuffle step move, like a read step/hip flip? I learned my system from Troy Taylor but if you have a way to do it that is easier to learn than how I teach my concepts I'd love to throw some of it into my tool box. Ten years ago I stopped coaching my guys to read defensive intent and now they read only number of safeties and their alignment (is BS on or off hash/if single high is FS inside or outside the up rights) where is Mike, and softest coverage/best leverage. He only has to know one or two of those based on the concept. That allows him the ease of having to know only three things....pre snap, drop and progression. I want my QB back in the pocket brain dead. He knows by pre snap if he is working field or boundary or if full filed concept he knows if he is throwing the alert. That allows him to anticipate the throw he is probably going to make, but, goes through the progression and throws to the first open receiver.
Hey Coach Mac. I love the concept, suggestion; The backside #1 (mesh) should be off and #2 should be on or up. This will put the FS and and Backside Corner in conflict a bit easier and give your mesh player an easier clear. You may want to even bring him (#1) over from Trips motion as well it's pretty effective for reading whether it's man vs zone for your QB as well.
As is the concept I have as an O-line coach (and do not trust running backs to block a blitzer) we will always send our back on a swing to the weak side to account or throw hot off of a team bringing 4 weak... Just some thought for you out there that cannot devote the time to teaching backs to take on a "dude" blitzing 4 weak. In a concept like this, I WANT the 4 weak blitzer to redirect to the back, so I can use the mesh concept. If he does not redirect, nobody is there for the swing.

Sweet and simple. Thanks once again for the tutorial coach. This concept makes more sense to me than having both slot receivers running the mesh
You are welcome
Love the simplified mesh. Can't believe I never considered it this way. Thanks.

Those results speak for themselves. Thank You

All great ideas, thank you.

No disrespect.. I like this X's & O's to use in Madden the game. the game doesn't give the information any justice.
