Grid said:as long as im asking. you know that short pass that Carr does to johnson? basicly johnson takes like too steps then cuts right and gets the ball in the middle of the field, right behind the LBs. Andre has picked up some big yardage on that pass. Is there a name for that pass?
A quick out (route) is where the WR drives straight downfield 5-15 yards and makes a sharp cut to the sideline.HJam72 said:I'm sure you guys are right, but I always thought the immediate pass to a receiver (like Johnson) was called a quick out, as in quick pass to the wide-out, or quick out pass. Same thing or what?

AJ, I think this is more properly just called an "out pattern" and represents an intermediate route. A "quick out" is a short pattern designed to pick up a crucial 2 to 5 yds and the receiver steps out of bounds to stop the clock. If the situation allows, the receiver can tightwalk the sideline to pick up extra yards before stepping out of bounds.aj. said:A quick out (route) is where the WR drives straight downfield 5-15 yards and makes a sharp cut to the sideline.
I think what you may be thinking of here is a "hook pattern", an intermediate route of about 10 to 15 yards. The receiver comes to a complete stop and turns 180 degrees. Ideally, the ball reaches the receiver almost immediately after his turn. If it doesn't, he may come back toward the line of scrimmage a step or two.texan279 said:...I always thought a hitch was a comeback route...
A hitch is a pattern where the WR turns back towards the QB and comes to meet the ball, shoulders facing the QB. It can be run at any distance, including zero yards, as the Carr to AJ route is run. You can call it a quick out, though an out is thrown to the sideline with the receivers shoulders away from the QB.HJam72 said:I'm sure you guys are right, but I always thought the immediate pass to a receiver (like Johnson) was called a quick out, as in quick pass to the wide-out, or quick out pass.
