Throw a Touch Pass When the Route is Clear

The Touch Pass is one of the most reliable passes in the game. It is recommended that the Touch Pass be implemented when given a short distance between the Quarterback and Receiver.

The downside to the Touch Pass is that opposing players can easily catch it during a fumbled pass. Be sure to go for the pass once you've established a clear route towards the Receiver.
