Correlating Cover 2 in the Multiple 4-3 Defense and Man-to-Man Techniques

with Kerry Cooks,
University of Wisconsin Assistant Coach/Defensive Backs

Coach Cooks shows off his defensive expertise in teaching how to correlate the 2-seam with multiple 4-3 defense; this is basically a 5 under, 2 deep zone. This alignment provides solid, underneath coverage that allows a good change to quarters and forces the opponent's QB to throw in a tight window. Play diagrams shown help to illustrate each play and scheme in detail and by adding game and practice footage, Cook's teaching points and strategy are very easy to understand. The fundamental skills of leverage and the slide technique are outlined by Cooks. 'Footwork and jam' are part of the slide technique, which focuses on sliding the near foot in the direction of the release and replacing the far foot. The stutter is used when the WR drops his weight or sinks his hips to break. Other areas covered are the off-man technique and the catch technique. This DVD presents a very detailed look at correlating the 2-seam with the 4-3 defense.
