Defending Trips Mike McDaniels Former High School Coach • Rockford (IL)
Part 3 of this series will discuss our adjustment to motion and how we use certain coverages against certain formations and different situations. Before we cover motion, we have to remember what our defense does in part 1, and how our blitzing scheme will affect the offense in part 2. Motion, for the most part, has little effect in our game plan up front because of the blitzing that can be used between the nose tackle, the Mike linebacke ...more.
