Default Good Question.....



The best way to play it is to mix it up between Man-to-man and Zone defenses.

You can play it a lot of ways (zones) but the main thing for me is not to give up the big play.

if you can keep stuff in front of you, the better it is for the defense.

i like the over and under zones where the CB plays a "drift" coverage and uses the sideline as an extra defenderwhile the FS plays the undernenth coverage by running towards the sidelines.

it is still important to get the quick pressure on the QB to force the pass into traffic where INTS happen.

Trust me, I get my share of them using this type of zone coverage.
