Coaches,
Most people, I would assume, teach the traditional 3-step drop, with the QB turning his shoulders and hips simultaneously while taking his 1st step, with his 2nd & 3rd step as “settle” steps.
Jimbo Fisher (LSU) teaches the first step as an “explosion” step, with the hips and shoulders parallel to the LOS, with his 2nd & 3rd step as “settle” steps.
Even still, you sometimes see NFL QB’s (Elway), backing straight out on all three steps, or really, the 3rd step getting hips turned and body in position to make the throw.
This may be an easier way to throw to the left for a right-hand QB.
What are thoughts on this, unconventional drop (backing straight up)? I personally teach Jimbo’s explosion step being parallel and then getting hips into position on the 2nd & 3rd step.
