In this course, Coach Derek Leonard breaks down the integration of RPOs and quick screen concepts within the Rochester Offense, focusing on how to create efficient, high-percentage plays that keep the offense on schedule. The lessons explore the philosophy behind using quick screens and run-pass options to stretch defenses horizontally and force defenders into difficult decisions.
Coach Leonard details a variety of screen concepts, including Bubble, Now, Stack variations, and additional quick-game designs, explaining the structure, timing, and execution required for each. He also covers how these concepts can be paired with the run game to create effective RPO opportunities that take advantage of defensive alignment and leverage.
The course includes drills and teaching progressions, such as the Garbage Can Drill, to reinforce accuracy, timing, and decision-making. Emphasis is placed on repetition, simplicity, and consistency to ensure these plays can be executed efficiently during game situations.
By combining quick screens with RPO principles, this course provides a clear approach to building an offense that can move the ball effectively while creating space and opportunities across the field.
