Good captures here....you can see players facial expressions in these. Are they playing on turf?
QB looks like he is over 7ft tall.

I like the colors in these and the exposures are good. My advice is: Try shooting with portrait orientation. You've got a lot of unnecessary dead space in these.

Shot 1: good exposure and facial expression. Defender is too far away to be part of this image so this is a photo that would be better framed in portrait orientation.

shot 2: weakest shot of the series. Nothing really interesting going on here - shot 3 is a better angle and better timing for a throw.

Shot 3: nice capture but way too much dead space. portrait orientation and framed tighter on the QB.

shot 4: a bit late considering you are shooting the offensive team. A shot a bit earlier in the sequence should be better - when contact is initially made with the defender. Independent of team, the best story in this shot is the expression of the 2nd defender so a tighter crop highlighting that player would be more compelling.

Looks like you've got camera settings down very well - now you just need to work on your framing. But you're off to a nice start for pre-season!
