I think reading into the 1, 2 read thing. The problem in the past if you watch some games from last year you see Brooks drop back and with out a 1, 2 read he looks for best bet on who to throw to and then goes back into looking down the field taking time to make the call to pass. When they talk 1, 2 read its just that... You look for the 1 route then the second and dump off to the saftey route. When you read 1, 2 in an article don't assume there are only going to be 2 routes to go to it means check off then run or get rid of ball. Its not reducing the number of reads its just a system to check off... 1,2 read is the system I mean come on there isn't a 1, 2, 3, 4 read system.
The major issue is simplyfying the terminology for a play... shortens the time the play gets to the field and shortens the time for the O to get to the line and read the Defense. Last year you see Brooks getting to the line and not being able to make reads and set the blocking. |

Well, Euph, you said there is not a 1,2,3,4 read system. I'm taking IS NOT as never done because it doesn't exist according to you. You don't have to use the word to use it's meaning...but this is off topic.
I take a 3 read play to mean that immediately following the snap there is player 1 to check. If P1 is covered, then check P2. If P2 is covered, then check P3. If P3 is covered, then find an outlet. P1 will not always be Horn or Stallworth. It could be a TE or RB depending on the play. Thus, rather than making him go through 3 or 4 progressions before deciding to run or dump off, they are limiting this to 2. That seems to me to one simplification of the process. There are others that they have installed. I have never been a QB on a team so explain to me where I am wrong in my "guessing" about how this works. |
