Sacking a QB.

To sack a quarterback effectively, start by exploding off the line of scrimmage as soon as the ball is snapped, using speed and power to beat the offensive lineman blocking you. Keep your pad level low, maintain good leverage, and use quick hands or pass-rush moves like a swim or rip to shed the block. Once past the lineman, keep your eyes on the quarterback, take a direct angle to close the distance fast, and stay balanced so you can adjust if he scrambles. Finish strong by wrapping up the quarterback securely, aiming for a clean and legal tackle to avoid penalties.
