This is our pass zone identification for cover 3. When we are

in cover 3, the dogs have the curl zone to the flats, and the L,

M, and R, have the Hook/Curl Zones and the Middle Robber.

The Dogs always go through the Curl Zone to the Flat as the L,

M, and R are the last guys to get into their drops as they play

Run, Draw, Screen, Pass. We tell our dogs to buzz the curl, on

their way to the flat.

This is our pass zone identification for cover 4. In our base

alignment, one of our dogs is going to play a deep seam zone.

We will determine which dog will drop based on game

planning and tendencies. When we drop a dog, our linebackers

must adjust to cover the underneath zone vacated by the dog

who is dropping.

Coverage Ideals We play Cover 1, 3, and 0 the majority of the time.

Versus 11 Personnel we will play Cover 1, Cover 3,Cover 4, and Cover 5.

30/53

3-5-3 Pressure Packages We will be aggressive in our pressures. We will primarily run 4 and 5 man pressures,

however, we can bring as many as 8. Make sure to match up your coverage and

pressure packages.

Be sure to understand where your voided zonesare located. Be prepared to check out of your blitz game

versus certain looks by the offense.

The offense should never know who is coming,or how many. Bluff and disguise wheneverpossible.


31/53

Bringing Pressure Create potential 4 on 3 and 3 on 2 match-ups.

Identify and utilize a mismatch. Put the offensive line and backs in conflict.

Force the quarterback to throw the football

quickly.

Get the offense out of their comfort zone.

Create a turnover.

Give the illusion that eight can come at any time!

Coverage and Pressures Never put yourself in a coverage bind.

If you cant play man, dont. If you are getting 3 step, use your pressureaccordingly.

Understand which zones are you will void. Never bring pressure to the point you are shortin coverage.

When you bring pressure you must get pressure.

Every front 8 player must understand your minuscall.
