The Passing Game Made Easy

with Bill Shepard,
former Rockford Christian HS (IL) Head Coach

Coach Sheppard presents a passing game package that can be utilized from youth football to college. Components of this package include line base blocking, easy alignment for backs, ownership of pass patterns and numbered patterns. The pass patterns he shows are the fade, curl, zipper and slant. Each pattern is taught with specific footwork and coaching points and demonstrated by Sheppard's players during indoor workouts. All combination patterns are advantageous by putting the secondary in compromising situations and puts at least two receivers in the quarterback's eyesight at all times. Against man-to-man, this attack will focus in on one-on-one coverage, which puts pressure on the opponent's one man to cover his receiver the entire play. Each receiver is asked to block, run hard routes, be in top physical condition, and be physical. Shepard details specialty receiver drills such as hands drill, sideways catch, two-ball catch, hot potato, one hand drill, and the wrong hand drill. Simplicity and versatility are keys to this passing game attack and can help make your offense more efficient!
