Man Coverage

• The 2 Man Under defenses have the best press in the game.
• This allows your pass rushers extra time to get after the QB.

Zone Coverage

• Use Cover 4 to mix up your play calling with the 2 Man Under.
• This is a great defense for third and long situations.

Man Blitz

• Pressure will be quick, so be ready for a throw to the flats.
• If your corners get beaten off the line of scrimmage it will result in a big play.

Zone Blitz

• User-control the deep FS over the middle of the field and jump any routes over the middle.
• The flats and deep seams will be very tender with this play.
