When your QB's protections breaks down and he gets in a scramble situation what do you have your receivers do with their routs to facilitate the completion of a pass. I've heard a few different things....
1. have your receivers come back to the QB
2. have your receivers get deeper

These are very contradictory- though they both have their philosophies..... can anyone offer suggestions and why they do what they do?

Thanks

Coach,
In most cases, I like to have the receivers come back to the QB in case he runs, this puts the receivers in position to put on some vicious crackback type blocks if the QB decides to run. If it's third and long, we still need to get a first down so we will have them try to move to, or stay in, a first down yardage depth.

Any middle guys cross the field parallel to LOS in same direction as QB is scrambling 3. Shortest receiver in route takes off deep.
