Football Drills Quarterback Avoid DrillObjective of Drill: Develop footwork and ball control while in the pocket. Works on feeling the pressure and keeping eyes down field. Action of Drill: 3 lines about 4 yards a part, facing the quarterback. QB must begin drill by taking a 5 step or 7 step drop. Coach (coach stands behind QB) will then point at one of the lines, sending them at the quarterback. Then point at the next line, and then the next. Defenders are rushing full speed trying to knock the ball out of the QB's hands. The defenders try to get a good piece of the quarterback and then continue on pass the QB. Send 3 defenders at the quarterback, one from each angle. Repeat drill. Coaching Points: QB must maintain feet moving, two hands on ball. QB can step up in pocket when outside shoulder is rushed , dip shoulder to protect ball, inside pressure bounce outside, and can also reverse out, pull it back and roll out. Later, you can add receivers. Submitted by: Kerry Carman, Kentucky, United States Interested in ongoing Football Plays and Drills info?
