Some of the things Coach Niblett likes about dual screens:
🏈 Gives your quarterback options
🏈No matter what the defense does, you have an opportunity for a counter.
🏈They can be used in several ways…
- As one-word calls
- You can use it on first down
- You can use it on third down
- It’s good against blitz
- It’s good after a big play and you are anticipating a blitz
- It gives you an opportunity to use both sides of the field to balance the defense up
Like anything else, you have to work on dual screens to become good at running them.
