MAN COVERAGE PACKAGE
• Our Man Coverage package consists of a numbering and coloring scheme that makes it simple
for our players to learn. The numbering and coloring scheme alerts our players as to who hisblitzing and who is covering the #1, #2, and #3 receivers.
• Our Man Coverage package consists of: Three (3) true Man Free concepts, and Four (4) trueZero Man concepts. Again, note that the numbering and coloring scheme alerts our players as towhat Blitz Packages we will be running.

COVER DEUCE
THEORY: COVER DEUCE is a true man free coverage. Cover Deuce alerts out players that only one Linebacker is blitzing. The
remaining two Linebackers will cover the #3 (RB) vs. any two back formations or the remaining running back vs. any one back
formations. We will bring only our 4 man pressures with this package. When we bring our 4 man pressures only one Linebacker
will be blitzing. When playing Cover Deuce, it allows us to always have an extra linebacker playing a “low hole (RAT) player”
technique versus the pass.
RULES: It gives us the advantage of bringing pressure from either the middle or the edge of our opponent’s formations. This coverage
package allows us to have only one Linebacker committed on the blitz, and the remaining two Linebackers can read their keys andrun to the ball. This coverage also allows us to always have a Linebacker engaging and disrupting any crossing routes. In
regards to coverage, all of the offense’s WR’s and RB’s are accounted for by our personnel playing man coverage . The Corners will
have the #1 receivers and the Dogs will have the #2 receivers. The Linebackers will play a Banjo/Rat technique on the #3 RB vs.
any two back formations or the remaining back versus any one back formations. If there is an offset back in any shotgun formation,
the Linebacker to the RB’s side will go ahead and account for him and no Banjo call will be made. The remaining Linebacker will
automatically become the “low hole (RAT) player”. The FS will be playing a man free technique that is played much like a deep
middle safety in 3 deep coverage. This will allow him to roam the field and help the Dogs on the #2 receivers, and to make plays in
the deep middle part of the field.
WEAKNESS: As with any man coverage, if we are not successful with our pressure we can allow big plays to happen. If we do not have
pressure then we are allowing our individuals playing man coverage to be “out on an island” and exposed.
ADJUSTMENTS: “SPIN CALL” A Spin Call is made when we encounter a Trips formations. When we get a Trips formation our Dogs and
FS will be the adjusters. To the 3 receiver side the Dog will have #3 and the FS will have #2. The Dog away from the 3
receiver side will get his run read first and then spin to the middle of the field replacing the FS in the middle 1/3.

COVER 1
THEORY: COVER 1 is a true man free coverage. We will bring only our 5 man pressure packages with this coverage. When we
bring our 5 man pressures only two of our Linebackers will blitz. The remaining Linebacker will be responsible for the #3 (RB)
vs. two back formations or the remaining RB vs. one back formations. In turn, we forfeit our ability to have a “low hole (RAT)
technique player”. The two 5 man pressures that we will run are our Ammo and Bird Packages.
RULES: It gives us the advantage of bringing pressure from either the middle or the edge of our opponent’s formations. These blitz
packages are good for stopping our opponent’s inside running game. By being able to bring our 5 man pressures it allows us to
cause confusion to the offensive line, and create an element of surprise with all of our different movements. In regards tocoverage, all of the offense’s WR’s and RB’s are accounted for by our personnel playing man coverage. The Corners will have
the #1 receivers and the Dogs will have the #2 receivers. The Linebacker not involved in the blitz will be responsible for the #3 RB or
the remaining back versus any one back formations. The FS will be playing a man free technique that is played much like a deep
middle safety in 3 deep coverage. This will allow him to roam the field and help the Dogs on the #2 receivers, and to make plays in
the deep middle part of the field.
WEAKNESS: As with any man coverage, if we are not successful with our pressure we can allow big plays to happen. If we do not have
pressure then we are allowing our individuals playing man coverage to be “out on an island” and exposed.

COVER 1FLY
THEORY: COVER 1 FLY is a true man free coverage. We will bring only our 5 man pressure packages with this coverage. When we
bring our 5 man pressures only two of our Linebackers will blitz. The remaining Linebacker will be responsible for the #3 (RB)
vs. two back formations or the remaining RB vs. one back formations. In turn, we forfeit our ability to have a “low hole (RAT)
technique player”. There is never a “Spin Call” made in this coverage. The FS will remain free versus all trip formations. The two
5 man pressures that we will run are our Ammo and Bird Packages.
RULES: It gives us the advantage of bringing pressure from either the middle or the edge of our opponent’s formations. These blitz
packages are good for stopping our opponent’s inside running game. By being able to bring our 5 man pressures it allows us tocause confusion to the offensive line, and create an element of surprise with all of our different movements. In regards to
coverage, all of the offense’s WR’s and RB’s are accounted for by our personnel playing man coverage. The Corners will have
the #1 receivers and the Dogs will have the #2 receivers. The Linebacker not involved in the blitz will be responsible for the #3 RB
vs. two back formations and or remaining RB vs. one back formations. The FS will be playing a man free technique that is played
much like a deep middle safety in 3 deep coverage. This will allow him to roam the field and help the Dogs to the 3 receiver side.
He will make plays in the deep middle part of the field. No matter what Trips formation we see the FS will always remain a man free
player. The FS free allows us to have 4 defenders playing over the 3 receiver side.
WEAKNESS: As with any man coverage, if we are not successful with our pressure we can allow big plays to happen. If we do not have
pressure then we are allowing our individuals playing man coverage to be “out on an island” and exposed.
ADJUSTMENTS: “FLY CALL” A Fly Call is made when we encounter a Trips formations. When we get a Trips formation our Dogs
are the adjusters. To the 3 receiver side the Dog will have #2 and the Dog away will “fly/travel” over and take #3. The FS
will remain a man free player playing over the top of the Trips formation.

COVER BLACK
THEORY: COVER BLACK is a type of zero man coverage. Zero coverage means that we do not have anyone free in the deep middle of the
field. The only time that we have a person free is when the Linebacker is the “low hole (Rat) technique player”. Cover Black
alerts our players that a Dog and a Linebacker are blitzing. We will bring only 5 man pressures with this coverage. When we
bring our 5 man pressures we will use our Storm Package. The blitz will come from the side opposite the Slant or Whip Call.
Slant = a weak blitz and Whip = a strong blitz. If we make a Strong or Weak Call that particular side will blitz depending on the
strength of the formation.
RULES: It allows us to bring pressure from the edge of our opponent’s formations. This blitz package is good for stopping our opponent’s
outside running game. It also allows us the option of bringing outside pressure versus the pass. By bringing pressure off the edge itwill allow us to stop the option, sweep, outside zone, etc. Also, this outside pressure allows us to overload the offense’s linemen
which creates a numbers mismatch on the edge. In regards to coverage, all of the offense’s WR’s and RB’s are accounted for by our
personnel playing man coverage. The Corners will have the #1 receivers. The Dog and the Linebacker to the blitz side will bliltz,
and the Dog away from the blitz will cover #2 man. The two Linebackers not involved in the blitz will play a Banjo/Rat technique on
the #3 RB vs. two back formations or the remaining back vs. one back formations. The FS will have man coverage on the #2 receiver
to the blitz side.
WEAKNESS: As with any man coverage, if we are not successful with our pressure we can allow big plays to happen. If we do not have
pressure then we are allowing our individuals playing man coverage to be “out on an island” and exposed.
ADJUSTMENTS: If we have a blitz that is away from the 3 receiver/ Trips formation side the FS is the only one that has to adjust. The Dog
to the 3 receiver side will have #3 and the FS will have #2. If we have a blitz that is to the 3 receiver/Trips formation side
the FS and both Dogs have to adjust. If the Dog to the 3 receiver side is suppose to blitz, he will now have to take #3. The
Dog away from the 3 receiver side will travel over and become the blitzer. The FS will have the #2 receiver to the Trips
side.

COVER BROWN
THEORY: COVER BROWN is a type of zero man coverage. Zero coverage means that we do not have anyone free in the deep middle of
the field. Cover Brown alerts our players that a Dog and two Linebackers are blitzing. We will only bring a 6 man pressure with
this coverage. We will either call a Bird package blitz and add a Dog to it, or run Typhoon, Twister, or Tornado. The blitz will
come from the side opposite the Slant or Whip Call. Slant = a weak blitz and Whip = a strong blitz. If we make a Strong or Weak
Call that particular side will Blitz depending on the strength of the formation.
RULES: It allows us to bring pressure from the edge of our opponent’s formations. This blitz package is good for stopping our opponent’s
outside running game. It also allows us the option of bringing outside pressure versus the pass. By bringing pressure off the edge it
will allow us to stop the option, sweep, outside zone, etc. Also, this outside pressure allows us to overload the offense’s linemenwhich creates a numbers mismatch on the edge. In regards to coverage, all of the offense’s WR’s and RB’s are accounted for by our
personnel playing man coverage. The Corners will have the #1 receivers. The Dog to the blitz side will be the blitzer, and the Dog
away from the blitz will cover #2 man. When we bring a 6 man pressure, the remaining Linebacker will have the #3 RB vs. two back
formations or the remaining RB vs. one back formations. The FS will have man coverage on the #2 receiver to the blitz side.
WEAKNESS: As with any man coverage, if we are not successful with our pressure we can allow big plays to happen. If we do not have
pressure then we are allowing our individuals playing man coverage to be “out on an island” and exposed.
ADJUSTMENTS: If we have a blitz that is away from the 3 receiver/ Trips formation side the FS is the only one that has to adjust. The Dogto the 3 receiver side will have #3 and the FS will have #2. If we have a blitz that is to the 3 receiver/Trips formation side
the FS and Dogs have to adjust. The Dog to the 3 receiver side is suppose to blitz, but because of the trips he will come off
and cover #3. The Dog away from the 3 receiver side will travel over and become the blitzer. The FS will have the #2
receiver to the Trips side.

COVER 0
THEORY: COVER 0 is a type of zero man coverage. Zero coverage means that we do not have anyone free in the deep middle of
the field. The only time that we will have people free is when the Linebackers are in the low hole area. Cover 0 alerts our
players that both Dogs are blitzing. We will bring only a 5 man pressure with this coverage. The only call that we will make out
of this package is “Dig Pinch Cover 0”.
RULES: It allows us to bring pressure from both edges of our opponent’s formations. This blitz package is good for stopping our opponent’s
outside running game. It also allows us the option of bringing outside pressure versus the pass. By being pressure off the edge it will
allow us to stop the option, sweep, outside zone, etc. Also, this outside pressure allows us to overload the of fense’s linemen which
creates a numbers mismatch on the edge. In regards to coverage, all of the offense’s WR’s and RB’s are accounted for by ourpersonnel playing man coverage. The Corners will have the #1 receivers. Versus a 2 back formation both Dogs will blitz. The FS
will go to the 2 receiver side, give an I’m right or left call, and cover #2 man. The Linebackers will play a Trio technique on the 2
RB’s. If we are presented with any 1 back formations we will check “Smoke Pinch Cover 1”.
WEAKNESS: As with any man coverage, if we are not successful with our pressure we can allow big plays to happen. If we do not have
pressure then we are allowing our individuals playing man coverage to be “out on an island” and exposed.
ADJUSTMENTS: We will only run this defensive coverage and blitz versus any 2 back formations. If we are presented with any 1 back
formations we will check “Smoke Pinch Cover 1”. By calling this particular blitz our defensive linemen do not have toadjust their assignments and responsibilities prior to the snap. Also, there are too many checks and changing of
responsibilities that the players have to make if we want to stay with the original call.

COVER BLUE
THEORY: COVER BLUE is a true zero man coverage. Zero coverage means that we do not have anyone free in the deep middle of the
field. Cover Blue alerts our players that all three Linebackers are blitzing. We will bring only a 6 man pressure with this
coverage. The only blitz package that we will run with this is our Bird Package plus the remaining linebacker. For example,
“Falcon Strong Blue”
RULES: It allows us to bring pressure from the middle of our opponent’s formations. This blitz package is good for stopping our opponent’s
inside running game. In regards to coverage, all of the offense’s WR’s and RB’s are accounted for by our personnel playing man
coverage. The Corners will have the #1 receivers. The Dogs will have the #2 receivers, and the FS will have the #3 RB versus any
two back formations unless we see a trips formation. The FS and Dog to the 3 WR side will now play their Trips rule technique. All
three Linebackers will blitz. The Bird Package will alert two of the Linebackers to run the blitz called, and the remaining Linebackerwill blitz his gap.
WEAKNESS: As with any man coverage, if we are not successful with our pressure we can allow big plays to happen. If we do not have
pressure then we are allowing our individuals playing man coverage to be “out on an island” and exposed.
ADJUSTMENTS: There are no adjustments in Cover Blue except for our Trips rule. The Dog has to remember that versus a Trips formation
he has the running back.
