Coaching Points
- Pivot holds the screen with a wide base — absorb contact without moving your feet
- RB attacks the screened lane immediately on set — do not hesitate after the screen
- Pop to an open area, not to where you started — find the space the defense vacated
- RB delivers the pass back with vision, not as a reflex — check Pivot is in position first
- Communicate the screen availability with a clear call — 'screen set' before RB drives
