by One Back Nation
Description
- Stan Bedwell is an experienced football coach who played professionally in Europe from 2006-2019
- 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.
