106 QUICK SCREEN

This gives us a good answer to an over-enthusiastic pass rush. X and H


run Seam routes, trying to clear as much backside coverage with them
as possible. The line (except for Bunch Tackle) releases immediately
for the nearest LB; if someone else already has him, continue
downfield for the next wrong-color jersey. Bunch Tackle attacks the
defender over Y, while Y blocks the man over Z. Z takes an outside
diagonal step with his inside foot, then pivots and drops back to face
the QB. QB throws the ball at about 60% speed as soon as he has it
under control -- this is a half-step drop, with QB opening up with his
Bunch-side foot pointing right at Z, and gets the ball to him right now.
Z gathers the ball in and cuts inside BTs block, then looks downfield
for maximum daylight. FB steps playside, but isnt involved in the play.
We have a companion fake-screen-and-Go play, where QB first fakes
the screen and then drops back to pass, but we only use it after weve
hit the screen at least twice.
