Post Views: 1,635By: Chad WilsonFrequently I get the request about how to watch film which I like and is understandable. One of the ways to become elite is to study and understand your opponent. The number one way to do that is by watching film.Watching film is only half the battle. Understanding what you are watching on film and knowing what to look for on film is the other half. There are any aspects to watching film if you want to get the most out of it. In the video I have posted below, I talk about route combos and how they are a key to getting bead on what your opponent is going to do and how it can help you anticipate the routes you are going to get.When you start to understand how route combinations work, offensive football more simple, the game moves slower and you have fun because you know what’s coming.
