Quarterback Drills

I was talking with a Major college football recruiter and I asked him what they look for in a High School Quarterback. He stated 4 things! The first thing they look for in a quarterback is mental and physical toughness. The second thing they look for is the QB footwork. The third thing they look for is Vision. And lastly is the arm strength to make all of the quarterback throws. If a quarterback has those four of these abilities then you might just get a football scholarship!

A lot of mental toughness comes with football classroom work. One of the most underrated phases of quarterback training is in the football film room and the chalkboard. Most teams give the quarterback scouting reports that the coaches will review with them. Many teams after reviewing scouting reports have the quarterbacks write down the different passing plans. Such as the goal line package, the 2 minute offense package, the 3rd down package. the no huddle package if you have one, the first down passing package. From this list you will usually have 2-4 plays picked and reviewed.

So as you can see a Quarterback must spend some time learning how to read defenses! I see that there are now quarterback training websites that sell Quarterback How To Read Defenses DVDs. I strongly suggest any serious QB get them!

Quarterback footwork can be developed in many ways. Jumping rope, Jumping Benches and Boxes. Playing soccer, playing tennis, playing basketball, ladder drills, hurdle drills. Again there are some great low cost football training dvds out there you can buy on the internet. Just search quarterback training dvds or football training dvds.

Nest is vision, this is skill all great quarterbacks must have. You must be able to read defenses, find the open reciever and make the throw! The first part of reading defenses is identifying the pass coverage. Is it cover 2, cover 3, Man to man, Zone, or a combination type pass defense, or is a blitz coming? Again all qbs must put some time in the classroom study film and learning to read defenses!

Lastly, all quarterbacks at the higher levels have a strong enough arm to make all of the passing throws in a passing tree. The typical routes include a quick out, quick slant or quick hitch.

The passing tree includes 3 step drops, The typical routes include a quick out, quick slant or quick hitch. 5 step drops, with typical routes are curl, out, in. And 7 step drop or shotgun, with typical routes being the deep in, deep out, comeback, post and go route.

This passing tree and the throws used are the bread and butter used by all college and NFL coaches or scouts. If you want to play quarterback you must learn these throws. You can attend a quarterback camp or again there are some great low cost quarterback passing drills dvd that you can buy on the internet to see more detailed quarterback drills.

Arsenal - A Brief History

Posted by nui | Posted in , | Posted on 09:55

Arsenal is one of the leading English clubs and plays the kind of football most teams can only dream about. Nicknamed the Gunners, they're a North London team with a huge fan base. They're closest rivals are Tottenham Hotspur but like most clubs these days seem to enjoy locking horns with Manchester United.

They were founded in 1886 which also makes them one of the oldest clubs in the English domestic league. Arsenal is also one of the most successive clubs in the England, having won three doubles and the Premier League on two occasions (and counting).

For many years Arsenal played their football at Highbury stadium but now play their home games at the Emirates Stadium which has a capacity of over sixty thousand fans. The move to the Emirates Stadium has also made Arsenal one of the richest clubs in world football, ensuring they continue to be one of the top teams well into the future.

Famous Arsenal players from the past include Cliff Bastin, Ian Wright, Tony Adams and Thierry Henry to name but a few Arsenal legends. For years, Arsenal had a reputation of playing a strong defensive game and winning games by a single goal. Their back four of Lee Dixon, Tony Adams, Steve Bould and Nigel Winterburn is legendary and still used by coaches to illustrate how defending should be.

Arsenal football shirts are traditionally red and white, with white shorts and red or white socks. The designs of their away shirt vary but have often been yellow and blue. Nike have manufactured Arsenal shirts for a long time and have a contract to continue doing so.

This is just a concise history of the Gunners but there is significantly more to learn about this brilliant football club.

Liverpool Season Preview 2008

Is this going to be the season that Liverpool finally overcome their problems, remain consistent and at last get their hands on the Premiership trophy that has eluded them for such a long time? In short, no. Well, at least in my opinion.

I'll start with the positives. They have some world class players in every department of their team. Reina is a solid goalkeeper and hasn't let them down too many times when it has really mattered. Carragher is one of the best centre halves in the world and reads the game better than anyone. Nobody has to say anything about Steven Gerrard or Fernando Torres as their quality speaks for itself. When these players are all on the pitch at the same time then Liverpool can beat anyone.

The reason Liverpool will once again slip away from the title race comes down to two reasons. Firstly, their support cast. Yes, they have a number of truly world class performers but out of the Big 4 clubs they always have the weakest support players. The likes of Pennant, Lucas, Voronin etc all have their days when they can perform but aren't suited to challenge for a title. Secondly, Benitez won't pick his best squad for a sustained run of Premiership games, meaning they're likely to get picked off every now and again by the weaker sides. This is where Arsenal, Chelsea and Man Utd always get their extra points. I really can't see Benitez changing his ways and for that reason more than anything, I don't think they'll reach the heights the club deserve to.

If they are going to compete then they need at least three high calibre players to support the stars already at the club. Gareth Barry would be a good start in midfield, but they also need a forward to help Torres out and (in my opinion) another midfielder who can provide chances from wide areas.

As far as my prediction for Liverpool goes, I think it will be a case of the same again. They'll do well in Europe and win some big matches in the Premiership but I can't see them getting over that final hurdle and lifting the crown. I'll go for a third place finish and yet another season where Liverpool football shirts don't get that gold championship badge printed on them.
