 Be friending the bots you guys have been asking and the number one the number one Topic you guys want route combinations And learning how to pass a little bit better now before we start this video Please hit that like button and subscribe if you like the content I appreciate all the support you guys have been showing me, but I will tell you there's man 21 I believe comes out August 25th. It is not even June 25th. Yes, so we have two months to play this game Now you guys might be burnt out of the game. Everybody seems to be burnt out. Maybe the game sucks everybody's complaining But if you want to get better man 21, this is the best time to practice and one of the best things Or the toughest things to do is to self scout. What are you not good at? What do you need help with? What do you need to improve your game on a man 21? And if passing is one of the things and you want to become a better passer I know it's been a run year. So if you guys are trying to compete you're probably running a lot more To win these we can lead games to win these much seasons to win these coins So if you want to get better passing and and to me I always want to get better passing always want to be a better Passer always want to be as best I can Passing wise. Um, so this video will definitely help you This is a an idea I had and one thing when we go into passing and making route combinations Um, the number one thing you have to do is you kind of have to see the defense, you know Predicted defense previous play does a great job of that. I know a lot of people have been skeptical of why is it in the game But I mean the best players don't need it But you guys can use it to your help to you to help you become better players If you're dropping back and you see he's in cover three every play and that's pretty much the defense I'm gonna go over of how to attack not really how to attack but how to attack zone and how to really understand Try to make it like the running game. That's how it is the running game What you want to do is you want to use your linemen to open up holes for your running back essentially, right? In the passing game, we want to use routes to open up other routes So we want to use some routes around the field are literally just offensive linemen. They are just clearing out Defenders to create a hole for another route or another why receiver to make a play You have to understand that and one of the biggest things is where do I put these offensive line routes? You know just guys that are going to move people out of the way Because essentially when you when we pass when passers pass You have five weapons to your to your to your disposal now most of the time We're probably only going to throw the two people, you know when you're going to play two people are options to throw the ball So a lot of times when I'm when I'm streaming or a YouTube video guys, but oh you missed this guy You missed that guy You're really not looking for that guy You kind of have your mindset on what's going to happen when the play develops and you're looking for a or B sometimes C And ultimately the best passers. Yes, everybody on the field is a viable option You know, but a lot of times there's just dummy routes and I'm gonna call them offensive line routes They're just moving defenders out of the way now I want let's go into going to the Breakdown we'll go into the breakdown that I set up for you guys to really help This is just cover three, right? This is just cover three basic cover three This is cover three and dollar probably from me one of the best cover threes in the game, right? We have three down linemen and we have two purple zones. They could be cloud zones They could be you know seen flat So I don't know what purples do but and then you have the three deep blues All right You have the two yellow zones and you have to assume that one of these yellow zones is going to be their user So that's unpredictable But and then you kind of have to understand where the user is and what they're doing But I want to go ahead and show you guys what I mean by moving these zones now When a play starts, right? Any type of play any old play we're gonna have Essentially there's already holes in the zone and I always call these the kuchi spots Well, not that these are the kuchi spots, right? You're still gonna have holes in between these guys You know where you can where you can throw the ball, right? So essentially cover three and and really you kind of still have the sidelines to you know But the sidelines those two I'm not really not really not feeling the sidelines that much so when cover three starts I mean we already have I Would I would go ahead and say that we have what do we have? Let's put this on a hundred We have these kuchi spots because I wouldn't try to fit these you could I mean a seam streak right here Is viable so we have one two three four five six seven holes in the cover three, right? Now these passes without any type of you know offensive line routes to move the zones These passes are gonna be obnoxiously tough to get in they're gonna be in traffic You're gonna drop them you're gonna throw interceptions You know so obviously a lot of you guys we can run this streak right up the middle, right? We can run this streak right up the middle of the field With my man. Who's this guy out here? Mari Cooper, I believe we can run this right up the middle of the field. Yeah, no problem boom Right here boom that's attacking there. We can put a hitch here to attack it We can put a whole bunch of different things Essentially to attack with a mark who same thing with wit wit wit and we can do a little hitch right here We can do a seam we can do a drag We could even do a post whatever it may be right But These are all tough throws now. I'm gonna show you how to use these essentially to use these These routes you want what you want to do is you want to open this up You want to open up this This hole right here because you want to throw in these holes, you know, I like the big holes pause They're easier to throw they're easier to make reads, you know So essentially that that that's what we want to do here. We want to open up those zones or we want to even do this Move these guys down so we have a gaping hole right here, you know And what different routes can we use to do that? You know, they're there in lives become the dummy routes that you have to put on the field now We can go out here and we can put this guy on a streak Essentially this guy 19. Oh, that's a Mari Cooper. Let's put him on a streak Because what that's gonna do is we're gonna go here and that that hopefully that's gonna move this guy down here and Then we can go out here and we can take this guy run him on a flat Right run him on a flat. We got him on a streak. So that's going to take this zone move that over here then We can run Whitten on a slant a post something like that. Oh, where I switch is We can run whittin on a slant or a post or something along that nature now We're running whittin into this huge gaping hole Rather than trying to fit in before so that's what I mean about dummy routes now when people say oh, you didn't you miss the streak x That's not somebody I'm looking for because I'm assuming nine times out of ten He's gonna be covered. So that's one of the ways you we can go ahead and just Essentially open up a hole there for Wait in the whole catch a post there's something along that nature now one of the one of the main plays You see a lot of people run is this running back wheel, right? We'll see this type of combination from a lot of players this year and that's going to be a post on here Right We're gonna see an out route right here We want to see a running back wheel Some of these are some of the best route combinations we can have and we'll see a flat over here Maybe a streak here So essentially by doing this what they're gonna create is We're gonna take this seam flat all the way out to play because of the out route We're gonna take the yellow zones this direction for this post route We're gonna take this deep blue down here. We're gonna take this purple over here Right. So now you're essentially you have the running back in this wide open wide open, you know gaping hole right here and you're gonna have 18 which is Michael get no, it's not Michael Gallup who's a Randall Cobb Right, he's going to be a post in this gaping hole right here So this is one of the best plays people have used all year to stretch the user because like I said One of these guys is going to be a user So is he gonna guard the running back or is he going to guard the post route, you know But because of the routes you put on the field to open up these zones that such it does There's just wide open passes, you know, and it puts so much stress on the user to do that, you know But I just wanted to use this demonstration and pretty much show you guys how We use different routes to open up holes in the zone really, you know And different zones are going to do different things and there's so many adjustments you can do with the zone That it makes it it makes it tougher or what I'm saying it makes it so you do have to still make reads You know, I would say the running back wheel post route is probably the best route combination as far as not needing to make reads You know not not that you don't need to make reads But it's it's the easiest one because these yellow zones they could play aggressive, you know They could drop back ten yards. They could be in a mid read. They could be all over the place You know, they could go to the sideline. They could be in a vert hook There's so many different things these yellow zones can do that You still have to make a read and I'll show you just a bunch of different things that I would just do in practice mode And these are things where you can go and practice mode as much as like as much as I Don't use it that much but if you're not playing you're not playing a game Say you're or you're doing something you're watching a show or whatever maybe you don't have enough time for a game You want to get better sitting practice mode and put together these route combination? I use Brady Why do I use Brady because he has all the high routes essentially that that's why I use the Brady man in practice mode And I'm gonna go ahead and just show you guys what different routes I use to break down These zones just like I did it in a little diagram right there. I want to show you guys What I do to break down or what you can do. There's a bunch of different ways. We'll go to dollar right here Now, I'll tell you this is this is this is a pro tip Um, a lot of times we're gonna practice mode the past rush is insane. It is insane. It is unreal So what I do is I sub the worst player possible in here. I have Chris Covington, Joe Jackson and Jalen Jelks Cowboys fans don't even know who those guys are so instead of going against the Marcus Lawrence and Robert Quinn and Michael Bennett. We're going against Bums So we'll have more time in the pocket if you just have one controller You can spy these guys, but I said cover three sky press, right? Honestly, this stock play is one of the best plays in the game I love running curls against cover three We'll see how it works because you see those flat routes will move our purple zones to the outside And then we'll be able to hopefully hit these heat these curl routes, you know underneath them See that That's exactly what I mean If you don't have the curls you will or don't have the flats it won't open up that open up That's the offensive line route the flats are offensive line routes See this purple zone see how the the flat takes it all the way to the sideline opening up that hole for the hitch Now some some formations are better some splits for the Y receivers are better. Sometimes Y receivers are the numbers, you know It's to the point where I don't almost Do it do it backwards essentially You know, but now we'll get into okay Now Vander ash is kind of gonna be the guy or the safety is gonna kind of be the guy that's over top of it Oh, it works right there now Kind of flip it go opposite Honestly, I think what did that was this running back hitch Could have found we could have found a zone beater That's how but sometimes you sometimes you can pass sometimes you can hit the flat routes or the Offensive line routes, but let's go back to the one. I told you guys about now this this will route is not good I don't not explain that's not good This is the exact play I put on on the green board right here. This is the exact play We'll see what we got when we back up now. You see these offensive linemen are giving me all day here. Oh Brady really Brady. Is that how we're doing? Same thing now some like I said some wheel routes are a lot better than the ones that uh that are the hot rock Essentially the hot rock one is decent What is up with Brit? Is this is Brady in the game or is this that new guy? Who's throwing the ball? Actually in real Same thing though, but you see how that flat routes want to take the purple zone I mean, I just can't I hope you guys understand what I'm the one I'm going through right now But he I mean this guy's wide open and this is why Brady Brady was like not good in regs because he can't pass Let me just not pass lead it. I want to pass lead inside and away from that purple zone there it is Because I want I want and then you want to possession catch that because I feel like they catch it And they'll get the dive and catch everything like that But these are just different ways to open up zones This is one of the best ways and you got people will laugh But hitting that slant just quick slants quick slants when they go all the way across the field We'll see Watson will take the purple zone to the sideline. We just got to wait till Essentially boom there it is just wait till he gets in that coochie spot Like I said between the yellow and between the purple that that's pretty much what I wait for and what I and it's just a Timing thing really, you know, and and this is what's crazy is that you want to throw this now You kind of want to see how he's running into the yellow zone now But by the time I throw the ball it's going to be past the 40 yard line by the time it gets there So just like a quarterback in real life, man, you have to throw with anticipation You know because I when I when I hit the button on this pass About right here look he's he's not even at the yellow zone yet But you almost have to wait Anticipate for him to pass that because you know the ball the travel is going to be I said practice mode timing is a big deal On these route combinations. Um, let's go with some different ones on Hmm. I really like the slants. I really do But like this is one of the best in a year and you see some of the TNC guys use this very well Just a hitch boom right there a hitch now. Let's go with this one as well. Let's go hitch Outroll on the left. So we have so essentially is what we have we have a dummy route pulling our purple zone to the sideline We have a hitch pulling down the yellow zone and we'll do this. We'll do tight and post You know, that's what we'll do now Essentially what I'm attacking I'm attacking the strong safety here or the free safe The free safety is in the yellow zone, right? And we're gonna see if he guards Watson or Edelman and this is where the reed comes in like where where is he Going to guard because we know our purple zones want to be by the sideline because we put an out route You know, what is that guy gonna do and he doesn't drop back boom? Just like that make the reed on a guy a lot of times yellow zones and people use use hitches all year to bring down these yellow zones Bring down these yellow zones and then throw the post over top of them So that's just another little route combo. You can use against purple zones or against yellow zones against cover three But I said, I mean as we go back to the as we go back to the white board the drawing board Our biggest goal here is to understand that we need routes to move these guys around You know and essentially this is how you get your cover three beaters I'll show you pretty much how cover three beaters works. I don't know if I could do it in practice mode But it's just it's just I don't even know if the Patriots have anybody fast They still do a set but what you want to do Essentially a cover three beater what you want to do is you want to isolate this middle guy You want to isolate him and how do you isolate him? The best route in the game to keep zones down is a comeback route, you know I'm on the wrong layer So if we wanted to come back routes on the outside To come back routes Cooper and Gallup on comeback routes and Randall Cobb Essentially we'd have him on the deep post or we'd have the Titan on the deep post Evan Ingram Let's say I just put a Titan on the deep post now. Whitton's not gonna get this done, but Evan Ingram will get this done because what's gonna happen is these guys will go ahead and kind of stick to these Why receivers out here then you'll have this guy on the island and what happens is you'll run right at him And then you'll kind of race him to the sideline and you just get a pass lead to the left boom That's essentially how we do these cover three beaters Pretty much every time we see cover three whether it be deep corner a bunch whether it be y out and tight offset Whether it be any play with a deep post kind of in a slot or something like that And that's how we do that But the main thing I want you guys to learn is that you picture this in your head while you're passing You know picture that and a lot of a lot of madden offense And it has always been this way since the beginning of time is that you need one route that the user has to guard You know so say this hook crows the user and you have a post route that he has to guard every single time Dagger and trade why flex is a great play because you kind of got a guard deck crossing route every play So if you know their users garden there now not only do your dummy routes You can create one like this But now because their user has to run with the route you're taking that out of play as well So just try to make these giant holes in zone that that's the key what you can do If you want if you want exact plays man turf calm We have tons of stuff you guys can can use there to You know find different offenses find different plays that you want But I said go to practice mode mess around with cover three the same thing we cover two is just is just essentially different zones You know, but the more you can move these zones around the more you can manipulate Coverages and when you can do that Then you got to worry about manipulating the user have one route out there that they have to guard Why receive across out a bunch tight end? Not by side and punch why receive across the play people front all year Why receive across has a crossing route that they have to guard most of these post routes They have to guard corner routes. They have to guard Now use your other routes to open up these holes in a zone and find more open receivers Even it's underneath under ten yards. I hope this video helped you guys man. It's something I thought of The other night can I put these zones on the field move them out try to give people the idea that most most routes are Not I want to say most routes have the routes on the field are dummy routes offensive line routes They're just moving defenders, you know and that goes in the time when I get pissed off when people say you miss this guy You saw this guy. Oh my gosh. Why was the touchdown for me? That's my offensive line route I'm putting him out there just to move defenders, you know where I can hit other routes So like I said going into a pass play we we as passes probably have one or two people We want to do the ball to if you cover a we're going to be because we know with our offensive line routes We put out there, you know, we're gonna have the ability to go ahead and and Find those holes and find those people open But I said if you liked this video, please hit the like button if you want me to add on to more route combinations Different zones different defenses that you guys want to attack give me comments Whatever else you guys want to see in this be friending the box series because I want to help you guys get better for man 21 It's coming out in two months
