Running the Boot Pass off Rocket
August 29, 2014
The Boot Pass off Rocket is a great concept because the Quarterback boots away from the protection.
The Quarteback boots off the Rocket and throws the Corner route UNLESS the C or the D gap players force at the 1st level. If so, the Quarterback dumps the ball to the B.
Here’s how this all works.
Rocket Boot Pass versus 4-4.
PR- 7 cutoff steps, corner route at 15 degrees
PA- Rocket Path-Kick
OL- Slide to Rocket
BA- 12-yard Drag
BR- Post
Q- Punch, Turn, Pivot, boot at 7-yards depth, throw corner unless C or D-gap player force. If so, dump to B.
B- 5-yard flat
