QB key checks 's corner only when the underneath defender stays low and the deep defender cannot close the window. If the underneath defender sinks, take 's hitch. is the short outlet when both levels are covered.
Assignments
Coach it Use one defender alternating between squatting and gaining depth, then add the deep-half defender. Start by completing the hitch; add the corner only when the QB can make the throw.
Watch for A deep-half safety driving the corner, a flat defender sinking under it, or pressure arriving before the break. Near the goal line, reduce and redraw the spacing rather than assuming the full-field corner fits. No blocking or deliberate picks.
