This course teaches you how to develop instinctive, disciplined linebackers who can read, react, and shut down the RPO game. Coach Michael Patterson breaks down a complete linebacker system built around EDDs, triangle reads, and key recognition, helping players diagnose plays quickly and play fast.

You’ll learn how to read through the guard to the mesh point, understand backfield alignment and use the #2 receiver as an RPO indicator to anticipate plays before the snap. The course also covers a full weekly development plan, including run fits, flow drills, block recognition, and pass drops, so your linebackers are prepared for both run and pass situations.

If you want linebackers who can see it faster, react with confidence, and consistently stop modern RPO offenses, this course gives you a proven, game-ready system. Enroll now!
