Pass Rush Bible Update #4: Update & Outline
Hey! Just wanted to shoot out a quick update and a preview of my full outline.
So far I've got about 35 pages of content totally finished, covering topics like
- Film study
- How to practice new moves
- Using your hands as weapons
- Turning the corner
- and Rusher types
I've also been promising you guys a full outline for quite a few weeks now and I finally got it done. A couple things might change based on feedback i get from friends reviewing the book for me, but here it is:
Developing the fundamentals
- Start with stance
- Make sure your eyes are right
- Get off is the #1 fundamental
- Your hands are your weapons
- Hips don’t lie
Pass rush moves
- Speed rush
- Power rush
- Counter rush
- How to practice new moves
- Build a tool box
- Always have a back up plan
Types of rushers
- Speed rusher
- Power rusher
- All-around rusher
- Choosing a rusher type
Coaching points
- Rush to the level of the QB
- Space is your enemy
- Avoid rushing down the center
- Everything happens quicker inside
- Turning the corner
- Most sacks are effort sacks
Rushing as a unit
- The green system
- Big on big
- Get pressure with 3
- Slant to a balanced rush
- Be disciplined when blitzing
Film study
- Get familiar with the offense
- Look for pass run indicators
- Study their protections
- Focus on the hands
- Examine your opponents set
- Create a game plan
Advanced techniques
- Make bets on 1st and 2nd down
- Reading on the fly
- Converting from run to pass
- Use wide alignments
I'm also working on a couple of additional resources I'll be including with The Pass Rush Bible called The Moves Handbook and The Drills Handbook. The idea is that it would be a full hand book of pass rush moves and drills with step by step explanation on every single page. I wanted to put an example in here, but unfortunately didn't have enough time today, but will be sprinkling in a few samples in the coming weeks.
