This football practice drill is excellent for offense and defense to improve their skills. Quarterbacks will have to read what defense is being called and react to it by throwing to the right spot.
What you need – Have a skeleton offense and defense comes together (should be 7 on 7 or so).
How this drill works – Each side will call a play (without the line involvement), and upon the snap, each person will execute his duties on the field – whether it is a pass pattern, dropping into a zone, etc.
The quarterback will need to read the defense, recognize where players are going and then make the right pass to the WR. This is a fundamental football skill that needs to be learned for the quarterback to be successful at the next level.
Coaches should look at all of the players and how they are executing their individual assignments. Maybe a route isn’t being run correctly or a player isn’t dropping far enough into a zone.
Result – All players in the skeleton will be able to improve their skill level as the speed of this drill increases.
