About this video
You do not need a Division I quarterback to throw the football efficiently, and Rick Casko has a track record of rebuilding high school programs with average players to back that up. In this video the Cass High School head coach installs his 3-step passing game and his boot pass, the two throws that let a run-first offense stay balanced. The boot comes straight off the run game, the play action works off the counter, and everything is protected with rules a young offensive line can execute.
What you'll learn
- How to build a successful passing game with average high school players
- Why the boot pass off the running game is so hard to defend
- How to run an effective play action passing game off the counter play
- Blocking alignments and backside protection for boot and 3-step
- Precise receiver routes for both the boot pass and the 3-step passing game
- Coach Casko's concept of 'maximum protection' in the 3-step game
Who it's for
High school head coaches, offensive coordinators and quarterback coaches running a two-back or I-formation run game who need a passing package that protects the quarterback and complements what they already run.
About the coach
Rick Casko was a high school head coach for 17 seasons, including at Cass High School in Cartersville, Georgia, and built a reputation for rebuilding programs with average high school players.
The install is supported by extensive use of game film. Runtime: about 62 minutes.
Frequently asked questions
What passing concepts are in it?
The 3-step passing game and the boot pass, including play action off the counter play, blocking alignments and backside protection, the receiver routes for both, and the 'maximum protection' concept.
Does it require a special quarterback?
No. Coach Casko designed it for the average high school passer, so it fits high school and youth staffs that run the ball first and want throws that do not depend on a big arm or a five-step read.
How is it delivered and priced?
It is a Buy Now, Watch Now streaming video for $19.95, unlocked in your AFM Videos account the moment you buy, watchable on any device and never limited in views. There is also the 1-Year All Access membership at $99 a year that streams the entire library.
Why tie the play action to the counter?
Because the counter is already a defense's problem. Casko shows how running the same backfield action and protecting it on the backside makes linebackers wrong either way, which is what makes the boot pass hit.
