Seven Man Front ConceptInstalling 7 man front concepts. We will disguise everything we do as a defense from a Cover 2 Shell. This will put pressure on the offense to read us on the run. We will always be moving and stemming to different coverages.

Installing 2 Gap System STRENGTHS: 1. Control the LOS (90% = WIN) with Seven Up Front. 2. Play combination coverages behind it (Bracket inside/outside skill receivers) because we have seven to control front. 3. Defends the pass better, helps prevent breakout plays because of two high safeties.

WEAKNESSES: 1. Linebackers have 2 gap run responsibility front side and cutback. 2. Need to move front to help with gaps and control cutback lanes.3. Lose the 8th defender in the core.

Void both flats in the passing game (3 under/3 deep).3.Can still be picked up with 5 man protections.4.Dropping your best pass rushers and blitzing your best cover guys.

Line StuntsWhy Line Stunts?

Gives the defensive lineman a three way go!Cancels A gap for the LB in a 7-man front!Tougher to block moving target!

Weakness of Line Stunts

If they hit it right, we could get creased.If dropback pass, sometimes you are sending your best pass rushers down inside.

D-Line Movements

PIRATE = TO 3 TECH

FIN = 5 TECH

QT RUN TO:

* 3-Tech - Loop step widen to outside shoulder of the OT. CANNOT be reached. Get upfield turn all plays back inside.

* Nose - (Cheat Weak). Think Center reach. Jab step into A Gap. Read Center. If he is upfield, get ready for Guard to cut you. FLATTEN.

* End - Come inside right now ! Key center. Look for Center and collision. Disrupt & play football. RUN AWAY:

* 3-Tech - Widen, Go to outside shoulder of OT come off tight behind him. You become trail player. Back Door.

* Nose - (Cheat Weak). Think Center reach. Jab step into A Gap. Ricochet & Flatten.

* End - Come inside right now ! Key center. 1. QT

* This is the same concept as the Pirate* Can be run out of Over or Under

QT PASS:

* 3-Tech - Widen, go to slap/rip on Guard. Vs. Pass go to shoulder of OT. If he clamps down, cross face. Turns into T/E Game.

* Nose - Cheat weak, think Center reach. Step into A Gap. If Hi Hat, stop & wrap OT & end. (T/E Nose)

Flood ConceptMaster Check vs. TripsIn any of our base coverages.

To any 3 x 1 trips formation, we will master check to flood coverage.

This is an overload concept to the trips side. We are playing 5 on 3 with 7 run defenders in the box.

Flood ConceptMaster Check vs. TripsSTRENGTHS:1)Excellent on run 7 defenders in the box.

2)Take pressure off of FS with Mike carrying #3 and backside corner playing M/M.

3)Allows us to re-route receivers aggressively through our zones (buys the rushmen time).

WEAKNESSES:1)Backside corner M/M.

2)Screen weak.

Coaching Points / Rules1)Field Corner deep third!2)Boundary Corner M/M alignment based on divider split.3)SS head up on #2 receiver 2 to 1 / QB Intentions.4)FS check flood MOF deep third defend both seams.5)Will = cut to #2 receiver / QB Intentions.6)Mike = wall #3 carry 14 yards / QB Intentions.7)Sam = SF / QB Intentions. Game plan help with corner. Possible (chk) fin if removed to help corner.8) Based on QB Intentions looking to 1 WR side = Under coverage weak = WEB
