III. Methods

As an offense we must be able to run plays. We can hand off the ball to a running back who attempts to advance it by running through gaps in the defensive line. Different running plays like dives, sweeps, and counters, are designed to exploit specific areas of the defense.

As an offense

The quarterback or other players on the offense may make adjustments at the line of scrimmage based on the defensive alignment. This allows them to change the play or modify blocking assignments to exploit weaknesses in the defense.

Zone Coverage: The defense divides the field into zones, and defenders are responsible for covering specific areas. Zone coverage allows defenders to read the offense, react to routes, and disrupt passing lanes. Common zone coverages include Cover 2, Cover 3, and Cover 4. Man-to-Man Coverage: Defenders are assigned to cover specific offensive players man-to-man throughout the play.
