44--22--55STOP THE RUNWe always work to get both Inside Linebackers on the playside– B Gap and a Free Hitter– Run to daylight
We always want to force the pass deep and outside– Corners play with inside leverage

Principles of PursuitPrinciples of PursuitAccountability
– We will be accountable to each other. All members of the defensive team will develop tremendous pride in the great effort that they give on every play.
Respect– Intense effort will bring about a sense of respect and accomplishment from
within. This will create a bond between you and your teammates that is built on mutual respect, and these feelings will permeate through our defensive unit.
Aggressive attitude– There is no question that intense effort leads to an aggressive style of play.
We will take tremendous pride in swarming to the football. This will have an intimidating effect on the ball carrier. Nothing is more demoralizing to a ball carrier than having to un-pile from under five defenders after every play, with the other six defenders forming a wall around him.
Confidence– The blend of accountability, respect, and aggressive play will lead to a strong
synergy within our defense. The combination of these qualities will lead to success and with success comes confidence.

CommunicationCommunicationThere is no huddleEveryone looks for the signals– Mike may echo the call to the front
Moving away from this practice– Dog will give the Down and Distance
Stud will make a “RODGER” or “LUCKY” callThe strength is determined by the TEIf there is no TE, then to the side with the most recieversIf it is balanced, usually a “LUCKY” call
– Strength may be based on the back
There is no separate passing-strength call
