Lay out 4 bags to make bounds for the route, about 5 yards wide and 5 deep. Have two players lay on their backs in the center, one will be a ball carrier the other a tackler. At the coaches command the players will get to their feet. The ball carrier will try to out maneuver or just plain run over the tackler.
