    its the opposite for me. If they are playing a Cover 2 Man Defense that usually means double coverage deep. Zones usually mean single coverage deep and most zones can be beat by posts, corners, and fades deep. Man can sometimes be beat by corners and posts deep.

    Vs Zone and man you want to run clearing routes to open up the area of the feild where your best players face potenetial miss matches.
    The clearing route can be a posialble first read but not nesceraly does he need to be apart of the play other than a decoy.

    In man to man situation a fading streak from the flanker could be the clearing route and the first read and the TE will run a flag under route as the second read. if the safteys are in high coverage then the Cornering TE will be the First option with a backside In from the SE as a second option.

    You can also atack the play deep despite the high coverage, it doesnt matter realy aslong as you clear space for the receiver.

    On zone Flooding a specific zone is ideal. Commonly an offense will run a deep to middle In route from one side and a High Post from the other, the middle saftey faces two men. Its one read over/under. If he plays stay at home the second read will generaly be a trailing 3rd player perhaps a HB on a high circle behind the deep in. Throwing the ball away is always also an option aswell.

    1) you cant tell 100% pre snap if its man or zone, this is oen of your early post snap reads

    2) man or zone has nothign to do with weather you should throw deep or short... for instance if its a cover 4 zone EVERYTHING short will be wide open. but if its a cover 2 zone nothign short will be open but the deep pass will be there.

    if its man to man liek 3 man under, the deep ball wont be there.... but if its man coverage with 1 man deep or no one deep then the deep pass will be there.

    if you have 2 WR's to one side of the field have the outside WR run a streak and the slot WR run an out. the WR running the streak will clear out the CB on that side, leaving the outside of the field open for the slot WR running his out route.

    if you have a TE and WR to one side of the field have the TE run a streak and the WR run a short slant. the TE will run off the LB in that area clearing that space for the slant coming in behind it.

    if you have a 2 WR on one side and an Hb in the backfield: have the outside WR run a streak and the slot WR run a slant, and the HB run a swing pattern. the WR will run of the CB/S and LB for the swing patter, if the CB is in flat zone wait for the Hb to turn it upfield, since the other WR have cleared outt he safety and LB he will be open

    stuff like that

    Sometimes. I've been burned on this several times if I read man really quick but it's actually zone. Easy to do if the CB on the outside WR drops back 5 yards before giving the WR a release. Then he switches over to the inside guy running the out.

    I often hot route guys just to get them to clear out areas though. The technique is sound.
    Do any of the old-timers remember the "Should NB have his moderator status removed" thread before it got deleted?

    just cuz its zone or man doesnt mean anything. u must know what type of zone it is to be able to attack it . cover2 zone go deep. cover 3 zone go with corner and post route. cover four go to underneath routes. vs pure man coverage(no safeties to help) u go deep. vs cover 1 make the safety drift to one side than go deep on the other side.

    basically, ins outs slants curls all are going to work against man. zone it depends.
