Correct me if I am wrong coaches. The dbl eagle flex had it roots from the bear46 idea? I have been reading about this defensive front lately... Anyway, I have been looking for a way to strengthen the middle of my 40 front for next year due to youth and inexperience At one DT spot. The other DT is two year returning all state player. I think he could dominate from the nose spot and play both A gaps. My head coach isn't crazy about an odd front but trusts me in what ever I do. I would love to hear any ideas about what I could do or about the dbl eagle flex, or bear fronts from a 4-2 look. Thanks as always...addicted to this sitye and the best game in the world...

Out of our 4-4 (actually a 4-2) we just stack the 2 ILB's on the Center (& both DT's in 3 tech). You can sub a DLM for 1 LB in order to do this. Nothing else changes - but it presents additional blocking looks for the offense (particularly worrisome to most pass protections EXCEPT "turnback"!

Thanks one back. We have stackedor staggered them in both a gaps, Sam stg side A at 3.5 yds and Will weak A at 4-4.5 tds usually behind and 3 and 1 tech, or two 2i tech.'s. We have used this to help stop midline and double dive teams, actually also using Will as a free player to certain tendencies fromsingle and double wing teams (jet stuff, buck sweep, and option).

Other ideas guys...Bear front: 3 tech SDT, 0 tech DT, eagled down weak end...now who walks up to weak 5 tech Will or Weak Safety. Weak Safety will be responsible for covering down on #2 in ace back set (playing 1 free!) or going over to trips. Iguess I have answered my own question...please respond with any thoughts

Any knowledge of the double eagle flex out there

coach, try using directions to get to the different looks that you want...slant right/left to get to an over and under front....pinch inside to get to the double eagle that you want to give you some help in the middle...by directions i'm talking scynchronized movements by the 4 d-lineman...:camera;
