ACE DOUBLE SLOT QUICK 4,3,3,5

X A
Very good pick route vs Man. Look for defender of the #2 receiver, if his back turns to the inside of the field throw behind him to #1. If he sits with back down field look to hit #2 on the out.

Z B

ACE DUCE 6,7,7,3

X A
Same as the Quick Smash, but used 5 yards deeper.

Z B

ACE DUCE 0,7,7,0

X A
Good vs Cov 2 with a high/low read on the corner or Flat defender. If the flat defender is over #2 then throw to #1 with 1 step drop as the flat defender is clearing #2.

X B

ACE DUCE DOUBLE FLAT,SLANT,SLANT,FLAT

X A
Really good play vs zone with the #2 clearing the flat defender at around 5 yards with the Cross coming low at a depth of about 2 yards straight down the line. If the flat defender does not deepen then throw the slant. Against Man the Cross should cause the defender to trail. Throw to the wide side to give distance between QB and Split. Throw good catchable ball.

Z B

ACE DUCE Flat,Hitch

Real good combo against Cov 3. Read flat defender, If he plays low on the flat route then throw behind him to the curl. If he drops then dump to the flats.

ACE DUCE Flare,Slant

Good vs Cov 1 or any Man combo. Against zone read flat defender, if he sinks to cover flare then throw behind with slant.

ACE DUCE Cross,Zip

Read the Mess of the #2s or can use the cross as a trail route to the Zip. If Flat defender flys out to jump the Zip throw behind him with the cross. If he sits then the Zip should be open on the sideline.

ACE DUCE Wheel, Slant

Good vs Cov 1 or any Man combo. Against zone read flat defender, if he sinks with the start of the wheel trying to cover flare then throw behind with slant.
