Just found your videos, as a football fan who never played these are really compelling videos to show the complexity of the strategy that goes on in seconds each play. Great videos!
You have made me very happy. My seventh grade Grandson has used your instructional clips to understand the game at a base level and finished the year as a starter on JV football. You hit the right level. I just confused him with detail. Elegance in simplicity.
This is very fun and getting a lot of information from your videos! I can’t thank you enough for taking the time and making these videos. This is the best class I’ve ever takin!😂
Until you get 1mil subs I will tweet and post all your videos on every social media platform until you hit 1mil keep this coming because fans need to understand how football is played
Love the content G, love the sport and learning the inside and outs of this amazing sport. I watch the QB room for offense understanding and the DB room for the defensive understanding, doing this is the only way to truly learn what is going on. I try to look at the sport like I know nothing, I love how you teach so well so new fans can really understand the concept subtle nuances about what is happening in each play, what every players responsibility really is, from audibles to man in motion, to player jobs. What the receivers routes are all about. What players watch who? Knowing the basic strategy and conceptsnof each play, I want it all!!!! I love it from Vancouver Canada 🇨🇦 much love & respect my dude!!
this is super helpful! The sport is growing and become international. However, these concepts are not being tought so videos like these HELP ALOT for some one trying to learn the game on its own.
My friend Joe, he coaches High School football in Wisconsin. His kids play ball too. They are already watching these instructional videos. Very educational GQ!
I appreciate you bro. Giving me something to do while I ring fuckers up at circle K. I’ve always wanted to play organized football but my mom just couldn’t afford it and I moved a lot in my high school years so it was tuff. Hope to make it to on a college team and go pro one day. Well see what happens but imma try my best. Thanks! 🙏
@@Messup7654I’m 21. I plan to go to butte college soon and play. I’ve been working out and doing cardio to get my speed and stamina up , but I’ve been slacking on the film part. I would like to play receiver, but I’m down to play anywhere I seem fit. I’ve always had great hands and I’m really athletic I just never really got to play organized football because I came from a poor family and we were always moving. I just quit smoking weed a month or two ago after smoking for probably 5 years. And I can already feel my performance doing better. I’m a bit inconsistent on the strength training tho because I lost my job recently and it’s hard to pay for the gym and my nutrition every month, but I just got a new job so most of my money is going towards my health and workouts.
This is fricken awesome informative as all get out thanks man big fan of this format you have come up with need to get on Pat McAfee's channel if you guys are cool and get the word out I will keep sharing for sure though 👍 actually was just going to tell him to check this vid out and saw he interviewed you in December lol. Man I really think you are on to something arm chair numbskulls like me who are smart enough to know that we don't know shit are going to eat this up 👍👍👍👍🔥
Haha that’s funny! I just want to give general information about the game so that people can understand it better and then once I start breaking down plays, it makes a lot more sense!
Enjoying your vids. Has made think about about how little the average football fan knows about the game. And is there any untapped entertainment potential in a more knowledgable fan?
Like there is a lot of people that play chess. And then there is people who "Play" chess. And those people passionately talk about chess and can debate moves.
How much time per day does a DB spend in the gym? You should show us sometime what the workouts are like. & thanks for your videos GQ it really isn't something we get to see!
Ok, I am not assuming I know better than you Glover, because you've actually played football at the professional level whereas I never made it past junior college level. So don't think I'm trying to tell you your business or anything. That said, I'm a bit confused over something you said. When you started explaining 11 personnel to your viewers, that was spot on. However, where I got confused is where you start talking about taking the Will backer off the field against that formation around the 1:30 mark of this video. Now, I've always been under the impression that 11 personnel favors the pass over the run and that the SAM backer is usually the one who comes off the field in nickel situations because the Will backer is usually better against the pass and the SAM is usually better against the run. The base Nickel we ran in school was MIKE and WILL, not MIKE and SAM. The only time the SAM was on the field for us in Nickel was when we were running 3-3-5. Am I wrong here, or is that just something y'all did differently in Detroit or Houston or elsewhere? Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, as I definitely could be mistaken. Edit: When I say our school Nickel was MIKE and WILL, what I really mean is that the MIKE slid over to take the SAM's spot and the WILL slid over to take the MIKE's spot, though the MIKE still called the plays and audibles. The reason for this I think is because our MIKE was good at stopping the run, so he basically took on the SAM's role in the event of a run, whereas the WILL was more free, either dropping into a hook/flat/buzz/spy/etc. depending on the call, or manning up on the HB if the HB tried to leak out of the backfield on a pass route. If that happened, then the MIKE playing the SAM role in the Nickel would become free.
When I’m talking Mike Sam Will, I’m not talking a specific person bc at the end of the day you gonna keep your best 2 linebackers out there based off what you want to stop! When I say that I’m basing it off the position on the field! The line back that lines up to the tight end is the strong side linebacker! What you are referring to is person specific! If Von Miller is your Sam backer, hw not coming off the field when you go nickel! He staying in the game! Reason being, when you go man to man, the safety can cover the tight end and keep both backer on the back!!
@@thedbroom You nailed it exactly. See, I was getting confused because I was thinking person specific, not position on the field specific. Lol. I remember a few years ago, the Lions had Stephen Tulloch as their Mike (Loved him btw), Deandre Levy as their Will (Loved him too, shame what happened to him), and Ashlee Palmer as their Sam (He was solid, but nowhere near the other two's level). When the Lions went nickel back then (I think this was before you came to Detroit, as I believe Louis Delmas was still the starting FS back then, but I could be wrong), Palmer would leave the field, Tulloch or Levy would slide over to the strong side and whoever didn't would man the Mike position. So, that's why I was getting a bit confused. I'm sitting there thinking, ain't no way in hell Levy fixin' to come off the field on Nickel in favor of Palmer unless he's hurt or really gassed. Thanks for the clarification.
@@thedbroom Btw, I just want to say, I love how responsive you are. You are a smart guy and it shows. I loved watching you play as a Lion, but I have even more respect for you now because you actually take the time to respond to your fans. Not many professional athletes do that. Matter of fact, you're the only Detroit athlete outside of Joey Harrington (great guy btw) who I've actually had a chance to have a dialog with. Never change this part of you. It endears you to your fans bud.
I have always loved the fans! You guys make the game exciting and is important! But yes on that when you go from base to nickel you are going to keep your best 2 linebackers in the game! One of them are gonna play the Mike and the other Will play the Sam! And it’s the sam bc he is aligning to the strong side of the offense which would be the TE!!
@@thedbroom Right, I get that now. It's just for some reason every time I think of Will, I think of Deandre Levy, because when he was healthy, he was the prototypical Will backer (great in coverage, good range/speed/instincts). So at first I was thinking you were saying he would come off the field in Nickel (hence the confusion). Now, after you explained what you meant, it makes a lot more sense.
Glover Quinn would you be interested in coaching in the NFL? If you are it would have been smart for the Lions to hire you as DB coach. I do realize that the Cowardly Lions don't make to many smart decisions, so it probably never even crossed the "brain" trust minds.
I am a retired veteran, who wants to one day coach. I cannot tell you how helpful your videos have been. Please keep up the great work. Stay blessed!
Are you coaching yet?
Me as well
Luke G turned me on to this. I can not get enough of these type videos.
Well Preciate it! And thank you Luke G! Pay it forward and put one of your friends on it ha!!
Just found your videos, as a football fan who never played these are really compelling videos to show the complexity of the strategy that goes on in seconds each play. Great videos!
Ready to learn

Thank you so much! I started coaching the Lil Easton rovers this year and this seriously helped me understand the game! Well… the terminology
This is very fun and getting a lot of information from your videos! I can’t thank you enough for taking the time and making these videos. This is the best class I’ve ever takin!😂

Preciate it man! Planning to go live on Wednesday to talk football and other things!

This is a good informative video. Taught me a lot in 13 minutes.

This high quality stuff man! God bless and stay safe!
Thanks so much. I've been looking for this. Love you, man. Great video.

Thanks coach! Always wanted to know this stuff!
Helping me get smarter as a fan! Good job.
Make some more vids. You are good at this. I never played but love to watch. This helps.
This is awesome Glover! Thank you!

It takes a ton what are you doing to make it there it’s totally possible. How old are you what position do you play

Preciate it! Yes I’m going to start to market and promote more! Want to get my workflow and format and everything down first!

Hey glover
In bunch formation can you move the Z in the front or does he have to be behind the ball at all times?
What program are you using if you don’t mind me asking?
What software is that ?
How much time per day does a DB spend in the gym? You should show us sometime what the workouts are like. & thanks for your videos GQ it really isn't something we get to see!
I am going to show all that stuff!! Just have to stick around! Can’t show it all at once!! I will show and tell you guys everything!
