  1. Defending the Spread using the 30 Stack Defense

  2. Offensive Philosophy • Why are they running the spread? (Run v. Pass) • Where on the field do they want the ball to go? (Box v. Perimeter) • Who do they want to get the ball to? (Best Players) • What are their best plays? (3 – 4 Run and 3 max. play actions)

  3. Defensive Game Plan • Know your Personnel • More talented than opponent: Blitz more players and play cover 0. (Perimeter) • Less talented than opponent: Blitz fewer players and play zone coverage. • Scope of plan should be small • Less is more: (Fewer blitzes, fronts, movements, and coverages = more reps. In practice and players playing faster.

  4. Strength of the 30 Stack against the Spread • Six defenders in the box. Can’t block everyone. • Tough, not impossible, to get to the stacked linebackers. • Reduces the effectiveness of the bubble screen and tunnel screens. • More defenders within five yards of the LOS to help pursue the perimeter run plays.

  6. Defending the Zone Read(Double Team Greatest Threat) • Base Philosophy • DE: Shoulders Square Squeeze Air. • Responsible for QB. • OLB: Fits up inside on the FB running the zone. • Alley Player: Reads run and is the 2nd defender on the QB • Chase Philosophy • DE: Slants inside and chases FB (Good Pursuit Angle) • OLB: Fits Outside of Defensive End and plays QB inside – out. • Alley Player: Reads run and is the 2nd defender on the QB

  9. Inside Zone (No Read) • Pinch DE’s to B Gap • DE should Wrong Arm any Slot working across the Formation • Blitz MLB to side of the FB • Falcon Safety should also Fit to side of FB.

  11. Defending Counter Play • Must spill the ball: We want them to run laterally not north and south. • Pinch: Good call against teams that run a lot of counter, especially counter trey. • Blitz Mike Backer. Pinching and blitzing MLB makes it very difficult to pull backside linemen. • Backside LB must read split flow.

Stopping Perimeter Run & Screen Game • Jet Sweep • Alignment: Must have an Alley Player who can get to the LOS • Must be good at Shedding Blocks • Zone Coverage is very Helpful since Secondary is Reading the QB for Run/Pass • Slot Screen • Alignment: Must have an Alley Player who can get to the LOS • Must be good at Shedding Blocks • Zone Coverage is very Helpful since Secondary is Reading the QB for Run/Pass
