On this episode of Above Average Joe, average guy Clay Skipper has one day to learn how to throw like an NFL quarterback. On average, most NFL quarterbacks are completing only 50% of their passes. Can he rise up in the ranks to throw like reigning MVP Aaron Rodgers or Jalen Hurts? From establishing a base to moving in the pocket, quarterback coach Quincy Avery is here to teach Clay how to refine his pass technique so he can complete a rail shot pass and become a tailgate QB legend.

    this has to be one of the best coaches ive seen in my life, he makes teaching movements so easy while also motivating the athlete..... respect
  • @richardkoh1750
    I wish I had Coach Quincy for everything I did in my life. This guy breaks everything down so easily and is insanely encouraging.
  • @joshlynch5676
    Dude this guy is a great coach. Completely supports the athlete while making critiques that don't belittle the person.
  • @extremeuzer3
    What this man did for Jalen Hurts when he transferred to Oklahoma is staggering in and of itself
  • @j.c.7982
    shoutout to this coach tho. easy going but also very firm when it comes to fundamentals. i'm sure he has a different tone with professionals he really breaks down the essentials well. y'all should do one about covering a receiver. i know i've seen too many armchair DB's get upset @ their tv's.
  • @cmel7841
    seriously, get this guy in front of every kid, respectful, knowledgeable, smiling, Coach Q if you see this, GREAT JOB!
  • @MistunoriKapela
    I’m reading all the comments and I’m with everyone, this is the best coach on this series thus far. Amazing energy and approach. This the type of coach that you want to make proud because he will make you believe you are the best.
  • @dustinguy7910
    I have coached High School and Middle School track in the past, and this coach just reignited my love for coaching in one video. I am going to try and get back into coaching this year because of his insane positivity and love for the game
  • @johannblack6027
    What I've learned in watching just 10mn of this video is that in ANY sport, learning the basics and practicing the basics over and over is what makes the difference between amateurs and professionals... I didnt know there was so much into throwing a football
  • This the kinda guy I would spend hard money to coach me. Super encouraging and knowledgeable in what he’s teaching.
  • @dentonfaber6786
    Coach Q is not only knowledgeable but had a aura about himself that showed big in this video.
  • @faris6910
    “Omahaaa” “you not Peyton Manning” 😂
  • the fact you can see this much progression in one day is insane, what a coach
  • @GareBear420
    I was watching this video and was thinking how this is one of the best coaches I’ve seen in my life. Breaks down everything into simple movements and explanations while staying extremely encouraging. Glad to see everyone in the comments is in agreement.
  • @Kevin12321
    This is a guy that makes everyone around him a better person. His kids are gonna grow up to be some good humans. His patience and encouragement puts a smile on my face.
  • @Later_Doober
    I think out of all these above average joe videos, this guy has to be the best coach.
  • i can throw most routes pretty easily with 80-90% accuracy but its a whole different story when u have linemen in your face with corners covering your targets and having to throw off balance sometimes
  • Potential video idea: can an average guy throw an MLB caliber pitch? I think it would be cool and informative to go through different pitches (or just a 4 seam fastball), mechanics of a pitch, how pitchers warm up, how to actually locate a pitch, see how your speed and spin rate compares before and after.
  • @jschang29
    This the guy I'd want to be teaching my kids. One of the best simplified teaching I've seen online. He's a great coach.
  • @Arfwid
    Coach Quincy just makes me happy
