Football Passing Concepts

A passing concept is a set of routes designed to work together, so that whatever the defense does, one defender is put in a bind and someone comes open. Learn the concept and you learn the read.

These are the passing concepts in Crucible’s library, each drawn route by route. The written-up ones explain what the concept attacks, which coverages it beats, and the order a quarterback reads it.

Reading It Is the Hard Part

Knowing what a coverage looks like on paper is step one. Crucible puts you at quarterback against it, rep after rep, until the read is automatic.
