Concept Passing: Teaching the Modern Passing Game Kindle Edition

The author, Dan Gonzalez, deserves a Ph.D. in Offensive Football. When it comes to the passing game, and how to attack defenses, this book is a fantastic resource. Having said that, if you are not an experienced football player and/or coach, you may find this book to be a difficult read.As with all football coaching books, you shouldn't expect to be able to take the book and implement all of its concepts directly into your offensive arsenal. The idea with these kind of resources is that you take a couple of ideas from the book that you can use to enhance teaching in your own program. In that respect, I highly recommend this book.The book takes a complicated offensive scheme and does it's best to simplify it in a way that makes sense to the reader. The diagrams were extremely helpful and MOST were accurate. I will likely add this resource to the list of "repeat reads" that I use for the purposes of becoming a better coach.

Great informative book. Gives coaches guidelines on how to install a straightforward but varied passing attack. Good for coaches of all levels

Good intro to the pass. Seemed it was geared towards a 4-3 defense. Would have liked more comparison to hybrid defenses.

I agree that this book may take 2-3 reads. However, once you get the concept, it's really worthwhile. It can offer a lot of flexibility. Should you use this as your base offense? If you're at a small high school, you can take the concepts and apply them to your current system or take chunks of it.

Good stuff. We were able to implement things into our playbook.

Read it before you install your offense. Great insight on protection schemes. Use the R4 system with these concepts and you have a winner.

Unfortunately, we reader's aren't in the classroom with Coach Gonzalez. The reader is left to sort it all out for himself. If you are a seasoned coach looking to install an offense, and are willing to put the time in to study and decipher this book, then it looks like a pretty good scheme. If you are a non-coach, looking to expand your knowledge of the inner workings and strategies of the game, this is a waste of time.

Outstanding book covering all aspects of the modern pass game, Dan Gonzales it a home run with this book
