Description

- He has extensive experience coaching and calling plays at multiple levels (pro, college, high school, youth)

 

Core Concept: The Mesh Play

The mesh is a passing play with these key elements:

- Two receivers cross paths ("mesh") about 6 yards from the line of scrimmage

- The play can be run from different formations but works best from 2-back or 3x1 sets

- Takes only 5 minutes per day to practice effectively

- Works against all types of defensive coverage (man, zone, etc.)

 

Key Teaching Points

1. Basic Rules:

   - Y receiver always sets the mesh point (stays on top)

   - X receiver makes the mesh happen (goes underneath)

   - Receivers should slap hands when crossing to ensure proper spacing

 

2. Quarterback Progression:

   - Read Z receiver first

   - Look to playside flat

   - Look to playside mesh

   - Look to backside mesh

   - Check backside flat

 

Important Tips

- The mesh crossing should happen within 2 seconds

- Receivers should stay within 5 yards of the tackles

- In the red zone (near goal line), adjust routes to break at the goal line

- Practice scoring on every drill rep

- Keep it simple - don't add too many variations

 

Success Factor

The speaker emphasizes that success comes from:

- Consistent daily practice

- Keeping the concept simple

- Not overthinking defensive schemes

- Letting players give input on adjustments

- Focusing on execution rather than complex variations

 

Remember: The mesh concept is effective because it's simple but requires precise execution through repetitive practice.
