Accuracy and timing are essential when you start to put the defense on the field to defend passes. Try these drills for football at your next practice. 
What you need – You need two cones that are about 5 yards apart, and two lines on either side of the cones, about 5 yards from the edge of each cone. One will be the receiving line and the other will be the distraction line.
How this drill works – At the snap of the ball, the quarterback will drop back, and the football players on each side will run half-speed toward each other, but on opposite sides of the cones.
The quarterback will need to drop back and make the pass to the receiver in between the cones. The defender will try to get in the way of the pass (but not deflect it).
Result – Passing in a certain area is crucial because often QB’s only have a window in order to get a pass in. Having the defender involved in this makes it even more crucial to be accurate and for the timing to be bang on.
