The is a good play to call against Cover 3 Sky coverage, as the tight end should find a soft spot in the zone once he breaks towards the corner. If the tight end is not open, you can look for the split end, who runs a 15-yard in route. If neither of those two receivers are open, then you can look to throw to the in the flat.

Here are some for running the I-Form Close – Play Action Pylon Sail:

The quarterback sells the play action. The fake the handoff to the running back will help to sell the play to the defense and give the tight end more time to get downfield.

Lead the tight end. The tight end should be running at full speed, so you need to make sure to throw the ball ahead of him so that he can catch it in stride.

Don’t force the throw. If the tight end is not open, don’t force the throw. Instead, look for other options, such as the split end or the fullback in the flat.
