How to teach it

  • 1Line down-blocks playside and a guard pulls to kick out the force defender.
  • 2Wing hits the mesh at full speed; QB just gives a soft handoff.
  • 3Wing presses the edge before turning up.

Common mistakes to fix

  • !Motion timing off so the mesh is late — rep the jet mesh at game speed.
  • !Wing cuts up too early — teach him to press the edge.
