beating the man def

ok, so i have seriously experimented for like a week in ranked games and practice. I have found that the best route that beats a man to man def is the shake route. so i found like 3 or 4 plays that have shake routes in the syracuse playbook. basically, for those that dont know, the shake route is a route that has a WR or TE do a little "juke right go left" move, of the other way around. the WR that does that seems to always be open after the juke.

anybody else seeing this? if so, have u found a playbook that has more of these shake routes?

Yup, Syracuse has some good "shake routes". That's the PB I use.

Deep comebacks also work very good for me.

shake routes take way too long to develop by time the WR shakes the defender my QB is either sacked or throws a duck

or the guy trailing gets a boost and picks it.

theres a couple shake routes that have the TE doing it within like 4 steps of his route. i often times hotroute my RB to block for me so i have some more protection, because they do take a while to develop. but when u stick to the run and then throw these routes in to pass with, it can be a lethal combination.
