What is a Double Count?

[@UrbanSelfSufficiency]

Man, I'm gonna keep saying this, but this channel is now so important to me as a fan to learn the game; having more knowledge about the game makes it so much more rewarding to watch and enjoy. Thank you again. Jim

[@TheQBSchool]

Thanks, Jim.

[@ybananaspidershallowflippe3515]

Forreal man. You just appreciate every play so much more. Gives a different meaning the "Any giving Sunday".

[@PaulGaither]

Can you talk about the QB's job in the run game? Example ideas: *Killing the play into a run *Mechanics of the hand off. Harbaugh taught "belt to belt." The zone run teaches to open at 5 o'clock or 8 o'clock. Favre had his fake throw and Kurt Warner said he found himself watching Marshall Faulk running the ball instead of carrying out the fake like he was supposed to. *Practicing play fakes so that it looks the same as the run. *Executing the draw *The responsibility of the QB to make sure the correct run call is made, as I have seen very questionable plays run into a numerical disadvantage that was doomed, whereas Tony Romo called the Patriots Chiefs championship game and knew each time when it was going to be a run and to what side.

[@TheQBSchool]

This will be a good one for a Q&A vid.

[@nateparadise4816]

JT, continuing to love the content man, preciate all the knowledge! Idea for you: If you haven't done this before, it would be fun and informative for you to give a breakdown of the route tree, especially from a cool angle like ranking your most difficult throws for a quarterback to make, or ranking the route tree least to most difficult, etc. Keep up the good work!

[@TheQBSchool]

I like this idea. Although, I don't love a route tree. Let me think about it.

[@Noah-yp6fo]

Hey JT, viewer from Germany here. I love your content, can't believe u only got 22000 subs... I got some video ideas for you: -Pre and Post Snap Reads of the Defense and Offense -Defensive Reads on personnel groups (How can the defense sniff out a run play/deep ball) -More in depth about lining up under center and the possible play calls vs shotgun/pistol play -Transition from college FB play style into NFL -Follow up for your zone/man defense explanation videos --> How to beat different defensive calls, how to disguise your defensive call pre snap -Pros and Cons of different run play (toss, draw, inside/outside zone, trap...) Keep up the great work!!

Love the vids. In HS, I used to love away games (since home crowd would be quiet for the O), and I'd try to listen/read lips and body language of the other team's snap count. One QB huddled facing the D and near the LOS, and I could hear his count and play on almost every down. Another used to frequently point the count on his fingers to the OL (he didn't realize he was doing it). Lots of LB A-gap and B-Gap blitzes. Ditto for OG, one use to fold his fingers with the snap count, and quite a few used to change their splits when pulling or dropping into pass sets. College teams were smarter (and more noise in the stadium).

[@roderickclerk5904]

You are now banned for using wall hacks. 😊 Seriously though, in highschool (circa 2013) at least half of our offense could be called verbally or with hand signs. We did this to combat defenses like yours.

[@stephensebastyan1597]

​@@roderickclerk5904 JT talks all the time about "nuances", mostly from the QB position. Defenses also have their tricks. Hand signals and verbal calls can be deciphered too, and there is still physical tells (OL splits/stance, the RB starring down the hole or LB he's to block, Center bobbing his head from shotgun, WR starring down a LB or S giving away the crack block... QBs stare down their WR a lot) HS coaches are often bad about teaching "tells" and coaching them out of players (on both sides of the ball). They count a lot more on raw talent making the difference. As an aside, there's a fun video of Akeem Hicks talking about reading NFL OG for how they are balancing their weight in stance, tells him if it's pass, pull, power... So teaching those lessons can help even in the pros (not just HS or college)

[@Tanker3278]

I learn something everytime I watch one of your videos! Thank you!

[@jonathandennis8618]

Hey JT, new to the channel/Patreon but Im loving what you're doing and learning a lot. 2 ideas for you. 1) Would you be open to doing a "2 minute drill" segment where you analyze a game-winning hurry-up drive to explain what the offense is looking at, things that QBs need to take into account for clock management, and where the defense went wrong from start to finish? 2) Would it be possible to get into detail on what goes into designing plays from the bottom up? How often are new route combinations and concepts created? Thanks again!

[@fredgarcya8666]

Thanks, been looking and hoping to find someone to explain this. Thanks.

[@RyanTJohnson]

When I was in high school I used ready, set, go, 1, 2. If I game to the line and said Green Green it was on go. Sally for set, and one eleven or two twenty two. From my experiences you could just get them engrained on go and when you needed a hard count (if your line didn’t jump) it’s almost an automatic 5 yards or free play. Just a meta game.

[@PaulGaither]

Thank you JT. I really appreciate these and share them all around my social media.

[@RyanTJohnson]

Thanks JT! You are right. I overlooked the DL stunts.

[@natskis]

Hey, this is one of the best channels on youtube. Brilliant information and knowledge being passed. Thank you!

[@nassbr]

Hello. Brazillian fan and subscribrer here. I´ve been watching your videos and learning a lot. Football (not soocer) is incipient here and all those nuances and details you talk about are helping me enjoy a lot more the games I watch. Yesteday I was able to spot a stick concept play in real time during the chiefs@broncos which made my day. Anyway, there is one thing that i quite don't understand yet: how do you know which side is the weak/will and strong/sam? Thank you

[@theolotter9125]

Thanks for your great videos man. Learning so much from you and the quality of your analysis is world class. I was wondering if you could break down the RPO concept play?

[@TheQBSchool]

I did a Trubisky RPO one I think.

[@MrSebit2]

Great video. Greetings from Germany👍

[@AndreiTarkovsky]

JT, can you tell us your experience on how to fall down safely when you are sacked. Did you practice it anytime? Thanks for the great content you share. Best regards from Serbia, Europe!

[@subscribetopewdiepieunsubs7765]

Van Allen Sports talked about you in one ofnhis videos and damn this is Amazing content. Keep it up bro, I am subscribed to all of your social media. And have a great day.

[@TheQBSchool]

Awesome. Thank you. Love TPDP, too. Also, I appreciate VAS supporting the channel.

[@jefferyperkins4668]

You played behind some of the hall of fame qbs. What kind of things did they do that made them special? Are these traits that you can see at early points in a player’s carreer?

[@goldenrumble]

Hi JT, I have to say I love your content! I found your channel, watched a third of your videos and signed up for your patreon, all in the space of a weekend! I'm just wondering, when writers and talking heads on the tv might say something along the lines of "this QB doesn't get X coach's system", what does that mean? What really makes the difference between different HCs, OCs and DCs?

[@TheQBSchool]

Thanks. Great question. I’ll try to answer next week. I appreciate the support.

[@vinzentgaming8070]

Would you have preferred it if you can run the ball like how lamar does today or be a pocket passer like old man tom brady?

[@roderickclerk5904]

In highschool we did color system as our base cadence. It would be like, "blue blue seeeet read-Y go" The ball would be snapped on the y of ready. We had other cadences like like no sound, first sound, and seeet go. The seeeet go was probably the worst one (not that it was bad). In college we actually a similar system.

[@TheQBSchool]

lots of ways to do it. I like having a variety. Hard to do though.

[@christopherdasalla9909]

Can you explain what an NFL QB wristband playbook might look like? Love the content! Keep it up sir!

[@Stash_box]

Could you do a break down of Jimmy Garappalo's play so far this season? A certain "analyst" seem to think he could be replaced by any QB and they'd be 5-0

[@iimusic69]

Why are the QBs from the 2015 draft, Mariota and Jameis, still failing to succeed?

[@yahboiyaa4922]

Jameis with his turnover bakery. Lol

[@InvictusManeo77]

What do players really think about refs?

[@jimmy.d5956]

Hey man, could you do a video about how QB's look off safeties and other players in zone coverage. Rogers just looked off a cover 2 safety and threw a go ball up the sideline vs Oakland. Crazy stuff.

[@nickconforti6445]

Hey JT, loving the channel. Did you have a pre game ritual? Did any of your teammates have memorable ones that you can share?

[@biggtravis]

Regarding the “stunt” I thought I remember what you explained being called a counter though maybe that’s specifically on offense

[@TheQBSchool]

I hope not.

[@Anthony31323]

Could you talk about QB tempo of feet in different drops?

[@greggillings9454]

I remember watching you with the 49ers in the late 2000's. Question is who is your favorite NFL team? If you have one that is.

[@TheQBSchool]

Don’t really have one. I cheer for good QB play and friends.

[@greggillings9454]

@@TheQBSchool can you do a video breakdown of the Raiders offense?

[@MrCFH420]

Grossi posse. I like your opinion on marijuana. Awesome video good sir go pack go!

[@ryan.andersen81]

JT, A lot has been said with Kliff Kingsbury coming to the NFL and bringing the Air Raid. Lots of pundits and arm chair QBs say the Air Raid is a gimmick offense and it can't work in the NFL, but many staple Air Raid plays (ex. Mesh, double stick, Y-Sail, 6 (4 verts), etc) have been in the league for years, if not decades. Thoughts?

[@TheQBSchool]

On what? Kliff or Air Raid concepts. I like Kliff. We were in a NFL camp together. Smart good dude. AR concepts, you're right many have been in the League for a while. However, no one has really ever fully committed to 10 PSN and only running Raid concepts. I'm not sure an only Air Raid O could survive longterm. Jan. football is just different.

[@fostersaid]

JT, can you please talk about what cues a QB can use to identify what coverage the defense is in pre-snap?

[@TheQBSchool]

www.theqbschool.com

[@BaronDeRothschild]

Can you cover ideal throwing mechanics? Does the QB's power on deep balls come from the core and the arm? Or a combination of both? Thanks.

[@kewlguyjason]

I always wondered at what point does the offensive line have to set themselves? In college sometimes, you'll see the center squat and look around a bit or see the whole offensive line look towards the sidelines. At what point does that movement become a false start?

[@RyanTJohnson]

Jason Wang in my understanding it would be false start if imitating the start of a play. Such as a quick movement.

[@TheQBSchool]

I think they have to be set for a second.

[@tommyboy1504]

Hey JT can you explain the fire zone and what plays can it defend well and can't defend well

Hey JT love the vids. Why is “Blue 32” such a good cadence?

[@TheQBSchool]

rhymes.

[@keizaronstesticularcancer4608]

I don't have stats or anything to back it up but I swear most of the league uses (color) 80 as a cadence, with White 80 being the most common

[@scottanderson8167]

Why does the backup QB get a special hat and a clipboard while other players have to keep themselves busy while they wait?

[@roderickclerk5904]

The backup QB is very important. He needs to know what's going on also. He also helps the offensive play caller tabulate plays and their success rate.

[@keizaronstesticularcancer4608]

Who else remembers when the Packers center snapped the ball earlier/higher than Rodgers was expecting and we heard his loud "Green 18! Green eight- ahh fuck!" on live tv? 😂 His alternate cadence is "Blue 58" and "Ready, go!" when they run hurry up offense.

[@connman9861]

Why do you say stuff like blue 42 or as you say white 90
