Learn how to take advantage of your talent even when you may be at a disadvantage.

Using a PowerPoint presentation and game film, Coach Brown covers every technique necessary to marry the two offensive concepts. From quarterback footwork and reads, to offensive line footwork and aiming points, he thoroughly guides you through this transition in a very logical, methodical and step-by-step fashion.

The zone and veer scheme lets you stretch the field and gain a numbers advantage by leaving various positions unblocked.
