In the secondary, we roll the strong safety down into the strong flat. We did not slant the defensive line on this play but we normally do. The right outside linebacker comes off the edge with a contain blitz. I am going to show you why we went to the 3-4 defense. He is going to move and slant and create angles for our linebacker to get pressure on the quarterback.
We do not ask our nose guard to play two gaps.
He was a scrapper, liked to get his hands on people, and did not mind getting a bloody nose. However, he was the type of player we wanted to play that position. Our nose tackle this year was a wrestler who weighed maybe 160-pounds. We needed to find a way to create pressure with our undersized defensive linemen. They want to throw the ball, catch the ball, or make picks on defense. The kids that are coming out for the team want to play defensive back or wide receiver. We do not have many defensive linemen in our program. We are an undersized football team without many big body players. We changed to the 3-4 defense in 2014 and it made a huge difference. When we first came to South Albany in 2013, we were still running the 4-4 defense. He is going to help me out today with this presentation. He has always been a 4-3 guy and I was always a 4-4 coach. Jeff Louber and I have been around South Albany many times together. Originally Published in: 2015 Coach of the Year Clinic Notes - by Earl Browning
