strategies against press coverage man nanos

[ardentcolin]

what approach do you folks take when someone does the whole man press nano approach....what mindset, philosophy, gameplan, etc do we all employ? its something thats been an issue for me lately.

those routes that look like a big C dont seem to get pressed and can lead to big plays if thrown at the correct time, like as soon as they curve inside.

I find that most nano's can be slide protect or stopped with proper blocking of a TE or HB by motion.

Also you can try to motion a WR so the press doesn't effect him.

Another tip is to attack where the nano is coming from.

If you no the nano is coming from the left, try and find routes or combo's that are right behind it because that will be the weakest link.

Passes out the back field or quick hits to tight ends are good.

ok so lemme rephrase my query a bit....what type of routes do you guys like to use to beat press in these situations....obviously they cant take like all day to develop cuz we're talking about nano blitzes here,....but angle routes....those double move sorta thingys.....you know....those routes designed to create separation in one on one man coverage.....get at me folks

any plays with auto motion in it or motion the receiver yourself, quick strikes to the te/hb

Snugs package works good for me. Slant out usually gets out clean.

Great advice imo, having a SG form In Your audibles is good too.. call a play,quick audible to a run set, then you can audible back to original play to mess w them sometimes,,, always play w their minds....lol

I try to stay patient against nanos not force anything because you can usually find a guy wide open. if you tend to get frustrated thats when you make mistake

You have to get rid of the ball fast. Use short slants, flats, screens, drags. As someone else suggested try to pass on the same side as where the blitzers are coming from so that there is no one to defend ur passes. Also try tosses to right/left
