About this video

Marc Beach shows how the Seabreeze High School shotgun spread beats Cover 2. Part 2 of his five-part series details the actual plays, the Shallow Series, the Smash Series and the Mesh Package, with the receiver routes designed to get free against a two-deep shell and the formations, motions and protections that go with them. Part of the package is the Seabreeze two-minute offense, including the routes Coach Beach calls man-to-man beaters, and he notes the concepts can be applied to all offenses.

What is a man-to-man beater?

It is Coach Beach's term for the routes in the two-minute package that are specifically designed to win against man coverage, so the two-minute offense has an answer when a defense goes to man. He shows them on game film alongside the Cover 2 concepts.
