What do you guys think of this write up? First off a screen play is an outside behind the scrimmage pass play. It's designed to take advantage of aggressive defenses. It does this by allowing D-Linemen to penatrate and then throwing outside their penatration. The receiver can either be a running back (the traditional screen) or a wide receiver (the bubble screen).
