100 Days to Kickoff: Film Room - Defensive Base Coverages and Blitzes

Tuesday’s article focused on formations and positional responsibilities, and today’s will take at some of the coverages and blitz calls to expect from the defense this fall. Most of this will be based on observations the spring game, with a little additional info based on some Temple film from the 2018 season.

This is less of a specific coverage and more of a general description of the trend for the cornerbacks that was discussed to an extent in Tuesday’s article. When the corners are in man coverage on a given play, they are almost always asked to play up on the line and, more often than not, to get physical and try to jam the receivers to some extent.
