So do you teach "face the play" type man to man? I used to coach secondary and we did a lot of match up zone based on route reading along with eyes on the QB or face the play for zone concepts. Your thoughts?
No it means eyes on QB and running with the receiver versus watching receiver and not knowing where the ball is. I see it in college and pros....man to man technique that is not effective because the DB is "guessing" as to where and when the ball is coming. See the field and use FTP technique to attack the ball, not the man. @@GridironStuds
It happens a lot when the WR is racing towards the end zone. The defensive back is watching THE WR and more often than not will not turn his head to see where the ball is coming in.I don't get it.
