Three Points
by Ted Munter
Three points about zone offense that are usually true:
- Your poppers have to identify the zone they are playing against and adjust their positioning/movement accordingly. Handlers must do the same and adjust their throws.
- Keep moving. It's easy for deeps and wings to start standing and watching. Even if your zone offense calls for you as the deep O threat to go to the back of the endzone, move around there.
Let the deeps on D see you moving. You don't have to sprint, but you can't stand. Zone defenders want to keep track of what's going on. Give them more to keep track of.
- Never throw to someone backpedaling and don't turn your back to the play. For some players this will seem obvious, but lots of people playing zone O do both.
