Mtn RPO Zone Peek

Watch linebacker depth pre-snap, if they are sitting shallow expecting run support they are more likely to crash down and open the peek window. Identify single high versus two high safety shells, single high leaves more room for the peek route to hit behind crashing linebackers. If the defense shows man coverage on the outside receiver running the peek, look for a lurking safety rotating over late to jump the route. Zone heavy shells with disciplined linebacker drops shut this down since the QB is forced to hand the ball off into a crowded box. Post snap, track any user controlled defender spying the drag route, that player often signals the CPU expects the pass side of the RPO.
