When you throw and it gets up, you want to throw it up over the helmet so that receiver get in his hands and ran underneath the ball when you we are trying to go deep. Now, if we are going across the middle. Chris if you going five and across the middle, now we want the quarterback to throw the ball into the numbers.

Quarterbacks want to throw the ball to where the receiver is going now, where the receiver is at that time and the point of the release of the ball lead team right in the numbers. Receiver has his hands up, thumbs down when it is above his waist. Then this is a big drill, you can get ten or fifteen quick repetitions in.
