Description

Playing Quarterback 101 is a concise introduction to the fundamentals of playing the quarterback position at the competitive levels of football… from high school through the NFL.  With the understanding that it is impossible to develop athleticism by reading, this book was developed in cooperation with The Scholar Athlete Academy by Ben Summers to simply introduce quarterbacks and coaches to fundamental concepts that are often misunderstood and/or challenging to impart.  The topics are discussed in general terms and are applicable to any offensive system, including:  Throwing mechanics for consistent power and accuracy; Playing from under center and the shotgun; Controlling momentum transfer out of the drop back, into the throw; Throwing on the run; Defensive coverages and read keys with an introduction to route schemes; Running game ball handling and footwork; The college recruiting process; The psychology of success…
