Reading Coverages vs. Pure Progressions - Which is better? | Chalk Talk: 12
Welcome to Chalk Talk! This is a series in which I discuss installing a specific scheme or concept in depth, just like we would with an actual team, using our favorite football video games as a visual aid. The question of reading coverages vs. progression passing was quite the talking point on social media the past few weeks. I dive into the pros, cons, and uses of both and how they are both necessary for a modern, efficient passing game, as well as how you can use them in Madden and CFB!
