Man Coverage
- This setup will send two of our best pass rushers off the left edge of the field.
- We are only rushing four defenders, but the pressure will be quick and the coverage will be tight.
Zone Coverage
- This setup is similar to our man coverage play.
- Our setup causes a stunt with the offensive line. This confusion helps our pass rush get after the QB.
Man Blitz
- Press coverage will slow down our opponent’s reads.
- The Patriots have solid pressing CBs, so this play can be difficult for offenses to beat.
Zone Blitz
- This blitz sends six pass rushers after the QB.
- The goal here is to get two free pass rushers against the QB to force a throw into coverage.
