Bootleg

What Is The Definition Of A Bootleg In Football?

1. This is a type of play in football, specifically designed for the quarterback. During a bootleg, the quarterback runs with the ball towards either sideline while staying behind the line of scrimmage. To make the bootleg more effective, the quarterback may simulate a running play with a fake hand-off or make a play-action pass.

A bootleg play is often used as a change-up play to catch the defense off-guard.

Like most of last season McVay keeps Goff stationary in the pocket, a place where he can not be adequately protected by a well planned defensive scheme that applies quick pressure on the opposing QB. Goff is obviously mostly rattled and makes mistakes and miscues when pressured.

More bootlegs will help cure this offensive shortcoming....Imo.
