Should your passing game be built around half-field reads or full-field progression concepts?
It’s a debate offensive coaches have had for years.
In this preview from The Passing Lab, Pete DeWeese shares why he believes the best passing games don’t choose one or the other. Instead, they combine split-field concepts with scan tags to create quarterbacks who can process changing defensive pictures without slowing down.
Pete explains:
- The strengths and weaknesses of half-field concepts
- Why quarterbacks struggle when the picture changes after the snap
- How scan tags create full-field answers without overwhelming your quarterback
- Why teaching matters more than simply collecting concepts
This clip is just one lesson from The Passing Lab, where five high school offensive coordinators break down the systems they use to build efficient, explosive passing games.
