Really appreciate the video. Growing up in Germany I didn’t really come into contact with football until recently at almost 22 years and want to give it a shot
I'm 28 Years old, from Scotland. I have recently fell in love with football and have challenged myself to become a QB at the amateur level! Super helpful video, already seeing progress!
A lot of tutorial videos only show you one way so I appreciate you guys taking the time to explain everything. This was probably the best tutorial video for football that I've watched so far.
You are supposed to be pivoting off your back foot and rotating you hips. You want to keep your front shoulder at your target until you get to that 90 degree or until your elbow is in front of your right shoulder and then rotate through your hips and pivot off your back foot to transfer your weight and extend your arm as you release.
I have a DREAM! A dream in which legit American football players and coaches create high-quality-content videos covering every technical and strategic aspect of the game from the fundamentals to the advanced level. The end game would be to teach athletes who are football newbies to learn proper drills, accurately train, and ultimately become advanced or simply "game-ready."
I have a ten year old son that has a naturally good throwing arm cause he can clock his sisters in the head with accuracy from a good distance and he wants to be a quarterback! All kidding aside I’d like to put his talent into learning how to throw a football properly so when he goes out for the team soon he’ll get the job. Your video helped a lot but what else can he do on his own when he doesn’t have the space or someone to play with. Thanks for all your help!
Bro you can't give an idea of how this help me! I am from Argentina and I love this sport but I can't train because it isn't popular here. But I will try this excercise to throw better! I am really thankful!
Angus, my brother! I am so happy to know you get to benefit from this. That is exactly why I do what I do. Let me know if you got any additional questions/video suggestions you want to see and I’ll make it happen 🙏🏽
I’m gonna play QB at a game soon and i am having issues with my level right now so thats why i’m watching this video i will keep you guys updated😁 i’m from Denmark btw so yea greetings from here🇩🇰😁
Thanks heaps my man! I'm a lineman myself, but i've taken it upon myself to form a team in my home town (here in Bulgaria we are just beginning to create a football community), and I can probably train everyone, but the QB is something i have no comprehension of :)
Hey Omar! Thank you for posting this video. I'm so football-hungry, and this instructional video is all the more relevant since I live in Europe. ( A place where college or high school football doesn't exist!) :s
Hey Sam! I am incredibly glad you found this useful :). If you wanna do football nothing is impossible bro... teach yourself and perhaps save money and go to summer camps in the US to make connections, be seen, etc. cheers mate
dude this is so cool. but, as an asian with small fingers i really have troubles with the grip and the release wrist motion. i still haven’t been able to throw a perfect spiral:(
Practice is key. keep practicing the motion without the ball or with a lighter implement than the ball then add it when you feel comfortable with the "flick" motion
Use a smaller sized ball and as they get used to it upgrade to a bigger sized ball! And focus on grip strength in the gym (exercises like farmer carries, plate pinches, etc) :)
I will get together with Jacob again next month to record a part 2 of this video. Any questions you or any of your friends got please comment them on here! Cheers
The trouble with people who have gotten so good at something that it's second nature to them, is they tend to skip over the most important part(s). This video is a good example. You could follow his instructions to the letter and still throw a "wounded duck" because he fails to explain how to actually impart spin on the ball. And that is what most beginners are looking for.
Hey man. I'm 11 years old and I am having trouble throwing a ball and throwing a good spiral. So if you can give me any tips on workouts or whatever, I will really appreciate it. Anyways, nice vid!
I put my thumb on the top right white stripe to the laces and rest the other fingers, is that still a good grip? I get a good spiral but im mad inconsistent
@@Umarmohsen Not only that but i have a HUGE issue is after practice and ive been throwing for about 1 hour - 1 and a half hours the inside of my elbow feels bruised, and doing workouts like curls are impossible
Jason Houck go to a doctor bro and rest a bit... when you heal start back slowly and make sure you have a good training program off the field to strengthen your forearms elbows, etc
Hey man, I’d like to know if quarterbacks need a lot of endurance since I’m moving to the USA in about 2 months and am thinking about joining the football team. I don’t know which position though, what should I train if I want to become a quarterback?
I believe that you should just join and your coach will best determine that as it has a lot to do with your build (height, weight, arm length, etc.) best of luck :)
Thanks for the vid! I've been improving a lot. The only thing I'm having trouble with is my arch. Idk if it's cuz I'm lefty the ball goes a different way or something. Anyways, if you could help that would be greatly appreciated!
How do I make sure that my index finger is the last finger that leaves the ball? (sorry, am Dutch and football is very uncommon, so no one to teach me than sacred TH-cam) thanks In advance!
If your arm hurts then it’s probably your rotator cuff being over stressed so I recommend checking with your Dr./Physician to avoid any drastic issues and good luck man
I'm going to be a junior next fall coming off my first year. With practice do you think it's possible that I can become good throwing the ball before training camp to win the job?
try and apply what Jacob discussed in this video, Dominick. And if it doesn’t help let us know what specific questions you got and we will address them in part 2. :)
SupremeJunk Hey dude, thanks for your comment 😊. If you struggle throwing far then I believe you need to get stronger through resistance training (bodyweight training or lifting, plyometric exercises for explosive power, etc.) then apply!that strength. I hope this helps
Would you be able to edit your video to not include that short clip with the "f" bomb? You have an amazing tutorial here, but I cannot use it for my class of youngsters. Thanks!
Hey Ms. Maria, Apologies about the f bomb. I had another teacher as well reach out for that same exact reason. I will make sure to give you access to these clips separately (not edited) would that work? Thanks
@@Umarmohsen thank you for your response, sorry for the long winded comment, your video really is top notch and perfect for beginners and those with some experience. Your QB is very good at instructing, so I was just disappointed i couldn't use your video for my assignment, and had to go with less worthy videos. Yes, i would like a raw or edited version please to use in the future if necessary. Thank you, and keep up the good work!
cearan caffrey yessir! Just give me your email and I’ll grant you access to a google drive. And no worries, this is constructive criticism for me and I’ll use it in the future. Again apologies for the inconvenience and we’re gonna make it right 🙏🏽

I use to watch elway throw missiles on that field when I was a kid right where you are playing catch
yessir. Gtown baby!!
I play as a DB but sometimes we gotta throw balls for the practice. This video added up much. Thanks!

That is an awesome dream to have! I believe spreading knowledge is one of the most important things
the music in the beginning reminds me of Mark Rober!
I use the same technique for years and still have fun throwing a spiral when I play flag football
happy to help!
Thank you for this video and I got all spiraling footballs
Glad I could help with this video. You should thank Jacob for agreeing to film this 🙏🏽

dude this is so cool. but, as an asian with small fingers i really have troubles with the grip and the release wrist motion. i still haven’t been able to throw a perfect spiral:(
Thank you Naufal. And you will be able to! Just have faith & be patient 🙏🏽
Hey Omar I’m having trouble with how you flick the wrist can you tell me
Practice is key. keep practicing the motion without the ball or with a lighter implement than the ball then add it when you feel comfortable with the "flick" motion
Any ideas on how to get kids with small hands to get a better grip on the ball?
Use a smaller sized ball and as they get used to it upgrade to a bigger sized ball! And focus on grip strength in the gym (exercises like farmer carries, plate pinches, etc) :)
This is going to be my first year going for QB and this video is going help alot 🙌 thank you.
Nothing makes me happier! Best of luck!
Awesome video. Learned a lot. But wish the camera man would of focused more on the release vs following the ball.
Next time!
Awesome video sir
Thank you brother!!
Great tutorial video - thanks for sharing this amazing QB-drills!
Anytime Kristin! Another video is coming soon with Jacob Knipp. Stay tuned!

Thank you so much
really glad to hear that 🙏🏽 let us know what else you would like to see.
This helped lots
Really glad to hear 🙏🏽
thx
Happy to help!
Hey do u recommend flicking the ball with all your fingers
This helped a lot but what do you mean by getting more rotation on the ball
Master the flick of your wrist, which will ultimately lead to a better ball rotation, hence better precision & quicker ball
Any tips for a spiral that’s tilting slightly one way but still quite tight?
I will get together with Jacob again next month to record a part 2 of this video. Any questions you or any of your friends got please comment them on here! Cheers
Bro my teacher gave us this video to watch and it had the why you lying meme I was laughing so hard
LMAO bro!! Hahaha this made my day. Hope y’all learned something from it
It was so useful! Is there any videos about defense (especially tackle)or steps? I’m Japanese and my name is Keita.

I’ve been having some trouble getting my pointer finger to spin the ball. Every time I try is ends up going through the air very lob sided.
Thanks a lot !!

Thanks that helped me عمر
Anytime brother! Glad you found it useful:)

How do I make sure that my index finger is the last finger that leaves the ball? (sorry, am Dutch and football is very uncommon, so no one to teach me than sacred TH-cam) thanks In advance!
Just think of it while doing it. Be conscious of the finger movement
@@Umarmohsen I really appreciate it, but I need to know how to before I can do it while throwing the ball and be conscious of it while throwing
@@Hellhamster of course! Practice flicking your wrist. Kind of the last portion of throwing the basketball or a Shotput
@@Umarmohsen ooooooh now it finally makes sense to me, thank you so much!
I tried your grip and i guess that was the thing that i was missing
Austin, really happy to hear that! Good luck
Sometimes when I throw it really hard it feels like my arm is being pulled a little. Is that normal of u try to throw it hard?
If your arm hurts then it’s probably your rotator cuff being over stressed so I recommend checking with your Dr./Physician to avoid any drastic issues and good luck man
I like it
