THINK LIKE A COACH.
A few quick questions to start seeing the game differently. Open each question to reveal the answer.
It's 3rd-and-7. What does the offense need?
At least seven yards to earn a new set of downs. A shorter gain usually brings up fourth down.
Why would a defense show two deep safeties?
It can help protect against deep passes, although the defense may rotate into a different coverage after the snap.
Why does an offense use motion before the snap?
Motion can reveal defensive assignments, change leverage, or create a more favorable matchup.
