    How to pass on a 3-4 Zone Blitz Defense

    This been bothering me for a little while I play my brother and I been running effectively on the defense, It seems like his linebacker blitz then the other 3 zone through the middle, He usually puts press on and also plays the safety position. What I need to know is how to pass, I'm always getting blitzed and he uses the Packers and Colts and another thing is do you guys reccomened I use a certain team?
    Clemson Tiger
    Carolina Panther
    "Charlotte" Hornet

    7 man protections will give you time to pick apart the defense. Use curl/flat combinations or skinny posts. Keep the rb in protection to one side of the center and the te in to the other.

      I-Form. Block the FB. Drop directly behind the FB and setup to throw. If the pressure comes up the middle, the FB puts the brakes on it. You'll have time for a 3 or 5-step drop dropping straight back or more time if you roll out.

        Seams, flats, drags, and fades. As well as HB/WR/TE screens.

          This. If you want to be extremely technical and you've very dedicated to winning, check out some game film from the Steelers Pats game earlier this year. Brady picked apart the Steelers Zone Blitz with ease. My suggestion would be use a variation of short passes and screens. Don't be afraid to rely heavily on TE's in certain situations, Brady certainly wasn't.
