How to Organize Your Passing Attack w/ Dub Maddox

February 18, 2024 • Kenny Simpson and Daniel Chamberlain • Season 2 • Episode 23

Installing and maintaining an explosive but simple passing game can be a tedious process if you’ve never done it before. For some coaches, the run game comes naturally. But, the passing concepts that we need to be successful can be a whole other story. Dub Maddox joins Kenny and Daniel to talk install, non-negotiables, and changing routes at the line.

What is a basic install?

Compare talent to system
Quick Game / RPO / Intermediate
Boot / Sprint Out
Power Pass
Quick Game: RPO Stick/ Snag (phasing out)/
Intermediate:
- Does your OL let you use it?
- Beat the Coverages you are going to see
- Arm Talent of QB/ Skill of WR’s
Screen Game
4-5 concepts in the system, use 2-3 concepts per season
