Well, assuming that the safety is in man coverage or is slow getting over. Either way it looks good! Well done

So instead of just using the routes that are sound from a football stand point, you throw them out? The smash concept on the right is a great concept against cover 2 and works fine against cover 3. In a 2x2 formation QBs look to see which side of the formation has the advantage over the defense and then make his primary reads on the best side. Instead of approaching this play from a football standpoint, you approach it from a video game standpoint, which is fine, but annoys the crap out of me. Also that post on the left side can/will screw with safeties. Take that away and now the defense can smother the smash concept because there is no threat to the MOF.
