Escalating Stimuli.

I know there are A LOT of QBs feeling frustrated right now.
The season has just started and you’re realizing that the throwing mechanics you worked on all offseason start to break down when the pressure increases during practice or games.
Firstly, don’t stress! 
This is completely normal and happens to every QB.
Secondly, get creative. 
Find ways to escalate the amount of unpredictability in your training drills. Get your body moving and your brain firing before you have to throw the ball.
JUST MAKE SURE THE MECHANICS OF THE THROW ARE THE BEST YOU CAN CURRENTLY EXECUTE!

In this drill @oleekatz is having to react to avoid the towels thrown by dad @glkatz81 
It’s unpredictable. It could be 2 towels. It could be no towels. 
On the ‘BALL’ call Owen has to flip his hips and drive the ball into an unpredictable, but VERY SPECIFIC target. He nails it 🎯
There are about a half dozen mechanics checkboxes that he does an excellent job of maintaining on this rep, and a few more that slip a little bit. 
This is expected.
This is why we develop drills and execute them purposefully.
Progressions to this could be asking him math problems or geography questions while he’s dodging the towels.
We could have him flip 180° rather than 90°.
We could have the receiver take off and be on the move.
We could have multiple receivers, with only one of them showing hands.
Whatever challenges you choose, start simply and elevate the difficulty on a very gradual progression, again always focused on quality mechanics.

And if you don’t really know what those mechanics should be, send me a DM and I’ll let you know how I can help.
After all, you should be having as much fun as possible this season.
