Hi guys I am a defensive co-ordinator for a HS team in Canada, the division we play in sees a lot of shot gun, spread, pistol and unbalanced sets with trips or quads to one side. Where these teams tend to differ is their play calling some teams rely on these sets to spread us out and run the ball to excptional rb's. Others use it to pass (obviously)!
We run a 4-2-6
...............#2.........RB...........................#2
.............................Q....................#3
...#1.................T.G.C.G.T...................................#1
.......................E..T..N.....E
...........HB...........S.....W...................F.......HB
C..........................$...............................................C
The "F" is our adjustment guy he, usually to smal to play LB (Sam or Will) but bigger than our HB (half backs) and $. The kid I have there now can play anywhere, he is a big hitter, smart, but can read and react to the pass even in 1vs1 coverage on a reciver. This set allows us to keep 6 in the box, if they have the #3 rec. in the back field the F lines up stacked over the Nose, heels at 6yrds.
Now here is my issue, we are primarily a C-3 team, drop the C & $ in to deep 1/3rd, the HB flats, the S W roll their zone to adjust to the trips man or the blitz. We blitz on almost ever down this is a high pressure package, where a combo of the lb's and the Hb and the F can blitz along with the line stunts.
I would like to be able to run some C-2 on 1st down so that we can add some more wrinkles to this package. I have a Nickle where the F lines up over the tackle and then we run 2 safteys (this is fine for 2nd long but not 1-10 or 2-5)
My delema is this:
-Who do you drop in coverage? (I have in the past dropped the $ and one of the HB deep 1/2)
-What reads do you give?
Thanks for the help!
