  22. What does this all mean? If we all establish a pre-snap routine, work with our natural partners and do it every play we will establish consistency both as individuals and as crews. Once that consistency is established, the pre-snap routine will become second nature and will be done without thought.

  23. What does this all mean? We can then anticipate the action of the play, but not the result. This will allow us to read and react to each and every play and complete our job successfully.
