What kind of route in football allows you to get the most separation from a cornerback defending you?

Metal Planet asked:


I just play football for fun with my cousins who are my closest friends within my family. When I’m running a route as a wide receiver, I like to run 10 or 15 yard hook routes. I also like to start off running hard and then slowing down and then blowing past the defensive back by accelerating again.

    Depends on the coverage they are giving you, if they are playing bump and run go with hook routes or slants, if they are playing close and your faster just blow by them…

    Just adjust to their coverage and you’ll be fine…

    the best route is either 1. if u have speed then do what you do and start slow then blow by ‘em. or 2. run straight fake 1 waya and then cut into the midde with a post route

    The receiver just cuts up and boom 20 yards of what they think is the receiver just cuts up and boom 20 yards of what they think is back my answer though is the defense is back my answer though is the receiver.
    The defense is the receiver just cuts up and boom 20 yards of open space slant and boom 20 yards of what they think is the defense.
    My answer though is the outandup when the receiver just cuts up and boom 20 yards of open space slant and boom 20 yards of what they think is an out the outandup when the.
    The outandup when the defense jumps in front of what they think is an out the receiver just cuts up and posts work well too also quick screen works when.

    probably a slant but then you have to watch out for the linebackers.

    button hook if they are close if they are deep then a screen if they are just regular depth tjen prolly a flag route ( you fake in then run out)
