Book Description

February 27, 2009
To effectively overcome the problems presented by modern defenses, a complete passing game must possess both diversity and learnability. Concept Passing: Teaching the Modern Passing Game combines these two characteristics. A complete passing game must be able to attack a given defensive structure on all levels yet be learnable enough to yield a high degree of efficiency. The following system of passing presented in this book totals nine concepts that adapt to numerous protections, quarterback drops and actions, and personnel groupings. Furthermore, the concepts have been applied in varied presentations to the defense (huddle or no huddle) and at small college, junior college, and high school levels. Chapters include: Defining Concept-Based Passing, Formations and Personnel Groupings, Passing Game Terminology, Protection Schemes, The Drag Concept, The Vertical Concept, The Two-Man Game Concept, The Quick Concept, The Corner Concept, The Horizontal Concept, The Numbers Concept, The Three-Level Concept, The Object Concept, and Application of Pass Concepts.

About the Author

Dan Gonzalez began his coaching career when he was given the responsibility of handling passing game quality control during his senior season as a player at the University of Texas. After graduation, he served one season as an assistant at Ranger College, then moved on to serve as the quarterback coach at Abilene Christian University from 1996 to 1997 before returning as the offensive coordinator at Ranger College. From 1998 to 1999 at Ranger College, he produced all-conference selections at quarterback and wide receiver. He was also in charge of administrative operations and was the academic advisor for the football program.

Gonzalez then spent two seasons as the offensive coordinator at North Lamar High School in Paris, Texas. After two seasons, he joined the Lenoir-Rhyne University (formerly Lenoir-Rhyne College) staff in January 2002 as the quarterback and wide receiver coach and co-offensive coordinator. Dan Gonzalez rejoined the Abilene Christian University coaching staff for the 2005 season. The 2005 campaign featured two all-conference selections at wide receiver, including the development of a sophomore receiver who would go on to finish his career as the school and conference record holder in receptions and receiving yardage. Gonzalez frequently engages in staff clinics, quarterback camps, and private consultations.

5.0 out of 5 stars Core Offensive Passing Concepts, June 2, 2010
This review is from: Concept Passing: Teaching the Modern Passing Game (Paperback)
If you are a young coach trying to increase your knowledge base, an older coach who is trying to implement a more complex passing attack to the offense, or just someone who wants to learn about the modern passing game then you must get this book. You can utilize the content in the book two ways: 1) you can install the exact offense at your school, or 2) take the 9 concepts discussed and implement those into your offense using your own terminology. Either way it is a win-win. I believe a coach who has read through this book and The Bunch Attack by Coverdale and Robinson will be equipped with the knowledge to install a devastating passing attack.

This review is from: Concept Passing: Teaching the Modern Passing Game (Paperback)
this is a good book for people who are interested in learning about the west coast offense and the concepts behind them. This is a good source for any coordinator offensive or defensive to understand the passing game.

This book must be added to your library. The terminology is great and the author does a outstanding job of describing routes, reads, and concepts. Buy this book, read it, then read it again to fully understand it!
