Quarterback Play
Quarterback Pre-Snap • Playing Quarterback • 6 Sec Rule • Shotgun Stance • Under Center Stance
The Huddle “A Brief, Efficient Business Meeting” •
How we conduct and break the huddle sets the tone for how we will play once the ball is snapped…it must be disciplined, focused, and unified!
• The Center sets the location location of the huddle, then then calls the business meeting to order by giving the down and distance situation. • Sprint to it and out of it! Create TEMPO! • Once the quarterback enters the huddle, he assumes COMPLETE control control of of the business meeting. meeting. NO ONE else talks!
6 Second Rule •
The most important six seconds of a football play happen BETWEEN the huddle and the line of scrimmage…how you prepare yourself during this time will determine the success of the play!
•
“The Six Second Rule” is a simple mental routine that each position has that allows them to do their thinking before the play so that they can be prepared, confident, and aggressive once the play begins, and be ready for anything that might happen!
•
The actual routine varies by position, but its basic elements are: – – – – –
WHAT IS MY JOB (or basic assignment) on this play? What, if anything, should I do with my ALIGNMENT ALIGNMENT to help me do this t his job? What is the Defense's basic alignment? Based on the defense I see, what will my FIRST 2-3 STEPS off the ball be? What ADJUSTMENTS ADJUSTMENTS might I have to t o make, based on the defense, to get my job done?
Shotgun Stance • Our quarterback will sit with his heals at five yards • Feet shoulder width apart, staggered – Right Handed QB’s QB’s = Left foot slightly ahead of right , right toe should be at the instep of left foot. – Left Handed QB’s QB’s = Right foot slightly ahead of Left, left toe should be at the instep of right foot.
• Knees have a slight bend in the, but relaxed. • Hips and shoulders pointing directly down field • Hands are in a ready position, like a short stop waiting for a groundball. • Eyes will scan defense until cadence starts, then focus on the snap from the center.
Run Game Mechanics • Third Hand • Outside Zone Read • Inside Zone Read
Outside Zone • Quarterback will receive snap and immediately eye down the backside defensive end away from the call. He will keep eyes focused on him while he reads his play. If he stays home he will seat the ball into the running backs near side number. If the defensive end crashes hard and follows the running back, the Quarterback will pull the ball and continue to run it himself.
Inside Zone • Quarterback will receive snap and this time will immediately step forward and open hips to opposite defensive end. This helps for two reasons, first it helps keep the running back on track for where the hole opens up and secondly opening the hips to the back side defensive end will help our Quarterback read him and decide whether or not to pull the ball and run
Passing Game • Quick Drop • Quick Game • 5 Step Game
5 Step Game • More of a true three step • On the snap of the ball the quarterback will back pedal out. • Allows more time to see the defense and his read player • Will cross over on the third step and anchor
