Mobile QB K Raid Strategy Versus Cover 2 Man and Zone

K Raid Playmaker Letters:

“F” Running back
“H” Inside receiver/H-back
“Y” Inside receiver/Tight end
“X” Wide receiver
“Z” Wide receiver

Versus Cover 2 (2 Deep)---4 RUSH---5 MAN COVER---2 DEEP

Man to Man---when you look at the diagram you can see the potential mismatches. KK can line up bigger Y and H receivers versus the outside linebackers. Or---he can line up faster receivers versus outside linebackers. Typically, DCs will counter by subbing DBs in for the OLBs. But, when defenses go small, it favors the running game.
