Play: Angle Smash

Setup:

1. Hot route the X/square receiver to a drag route

Reads:

1. If your opponent is in man coverage, look to the Y/triangle receiver on the corner route first and then to the running back on the angle route
2. If your opponent is in zone defense, throw to your X/square receiver on the drag or your running back on the angle route

Overview: To tell if your opponent is in man or zone right after the snap, just look at the far left cornerback.  If he takes a few steps into the middle of the field, your opponent is in man to man defense.  If he steps back or to the sideline, he is in zone defense.

Reads:

Overview: There isn’t one easy read for this play but if you are decent at reading the defense, you can run this play a lot because someone will always be open.
