3-3 Defense: Understanding the Basics

JOHN RICE HEAD COACH EISENHOWER HIGH SCHOOL RIALTO, CA (951) 537-9902 537zacoach102@aol.com

Half of one, half dozen of the other

3-3 Defense 3-5 Defense 30 Stack 3-3 Stack Odd Stack

Theres more that one way to skin a Cat

Combination of philosophy & execution from a partial list of the following sources: West Virginia, Tulsa, BYU, New Mexico, South Carolina, Air Force, Wake Forest

Purpose- To inform clinic attendees of the following: Characteristics of a Sound Defense A Philosophical Framework for the running the 3-3 Personnel designations Gap assignments, key reads, & techniques (drills as well) Run fits (Inside and Outside) Calling the defense Cover 3 drops Installation, Practice Organization, Game Calls

Our Defensive Mode

We are not a traditional gap control, read defense (although it can be played in that mode if desired). We are a stunting, blitzing, attacking defense, taking advantage of our speed and giving our undersized defense a chance to be successful We will begin our installation/teaching process with the base defense, a 3-3 Stack playing cover 3 3 We feel it is necessary to teach this base before we progress to slants, stunts, and blitzes

We are playing the 3-3 with the 3following defensive philosophy:

1. TAKE AWAY WHAT THE OFFENSE DOES BEST; MAKE THEM BEAT YOU WITH SOMETHING ELSE. (More than 1 adjustment for a particular offensive formation) Examples:
Defending an Offense using spread formations to run the ball more effectively Defending an Offense using spread formations to pass the ball more effectively

TAKE AWAY WHAT THE OFFENSE DOES BEST

Ex: Defending an Offense using spread formations to pass the ball more effectively

Back Free Safety man on Back

One strategy vs. spread offense that sends back into pass routes often, protecting with 5: Pressure with cover zero.

TAKE AWAY WHAT THE OFFENSE DOES BEST

Defending an Offense using spread formations to run the ball more effectively 7 man box vs. 6 blockers

One strategy vs. spread offense that gets into a trips formation to run the ball more effectively: Keep 6 in the box and align the Free Safety over inside receiver. With Spur within 5 yards, its an 7 man box.

We are playing the 3-3 with the following 3defensive philosophy:

2. Whatever scheme you use, NEVER let the offense gain an advantage by formation, shifts, or motion. ALWAYS have base defensive checks built into the scheme to handle these things.

ExampleExample- Formation Check: Pull Call

INSIDE OUT DEFENDERS

C. Cutback defenders (inside out defenders), and a defender responsible for boot/reverse.

We are playing the 3-3 with the 3following defensive philosophy:

5. Offenses operate on rhythm, that rhythm MUST be disrupted. Effective ways to disrupt offensive rhythm are: stemming fronts, line stunts, blitzes, and disguising pass coverage. 6. Make the QB read the pass coverage POST SNAP; dont let him settle in before the snap and know where his primary read is. 7. Multiple fronts and/or coverages MAY better serve to defend particular offensive schemes.

We are playing the 3-3 with the 3following defensive philosophy:

8. Pursuit drill must be run every day 9. Tackling drills must be run every day. 10. Whatever defenses you run, the kids MUST BELIEVE in it. They must understand what its strengths and weaknesses are, and what you are trying to accomplish with a particular front, blitz, or coverage.

WHY THE 3-3-5 DEFENSE? 3It is an 8 man front vs an I pro set It is considered unorthodox by offensive coaches Easy to align to spread formations Ability to get into multiple looks easily Allows smaller, faster athletes to be successful Easy to overload perimeter of offensive formations Teams have less time to prepare for nonnonconventional defensive alignment Physical, aggressive, attacking style of play creates negative yardage plays and turnovers Easy to attack the pass protection weaknesses Fun for the players!

30 Stack Personnel

30 Stack Personnel
Defensive Linemen The line will consist of two five technique Ends and a zero technique Nose. The Ends play left and right. If desired they can flip strong and weak. The Nose plays a zero shade (head up on the center).

General Coaching Points for Defensive Linemen

Crowd the Ball; Play fast; get into the backfield and wreak havoc with blocking schemes Read on the run Dont stay tied up with O-Linemen O Find the ball after initial technique is executed and redirect to the football Beat half a man (slant technique)

30 Stack Personnel
Inside Linebackers At the heart of the 3-3 stack defense are 3three inside linebackers. Against a 2 x 2 set: The Lion linebacker will align in a stack position behind the left End. The Mike linebacker will align stacked position over the nose, playing a zero technique The Ram linebacker will align in a stack position behind the right End.

General Coaching Points for Linebackers

Read Slow, React Fast Primary Keys are guards; they will take you to the ball Its not a crime to get blocked, its a crime to stay blocked. (Dont walk away from a block) Play fast -sideline to sideline

30 Stack Personnel
Outside Linebacker-Strong Safety Hybrids Linebacker The Spur will align to the formation strength (to a TE in a pro set). When the offense employers a spread 2x2 set, the Spur aligns over the #2. Exact depth and leverage will depend on down, distance, coverage call, and game plan. The Bandit will align to the open side of an offensive formation (away from a TE in a pro set). When the offense employers a spread 2x2 set, the Bandit aligns over the #2 opposite the Spur. Exact depth and leverage will depend on down, distance, coverage call, and game plan.

General Coaching Points for Spur & Bandit

In Cover 3, execute your run force responsibilities with aggressive confidence-NO confidenceONE GETS OUTSIDE! Maintain outside leverage vs. run Your kingdom is the flats-control what flatshappens there In blitzing situations, attack with a frenzy

30 Stack Personnel
Secondary Left Corner will align over #1 wide receiver to defensive left. Standard cover three alignment will be seven yards deep and one yard inside. Play by play alignment may vary greatly, depending on down, distance, coverage call, and game plan. Right Corner will align over #1 wide receiver to defensive right. Standard cover three alignment will be seven yards deep and one yard inside. Play by play alignment may vary greatly, depending on down, distance, coverage call, and game plan.

General Coaching Points for Corners

In Cover 3, smash, curl-wheel, & all curlverticals are first in your thought process on a pass read As long as #2 to your side is vertical, you stay vertical; we play the hitch/stop late.

30 Stack Personnel
Free Safety Free Safety will align midpoint between wide receivers. Standard cover three alignment will be 12 yards deep and one yard inside. Play by play alignment may vary greatly, depending on down, distance, coverage call, and game plan.

General Coaching Points

You are the playmaker of our secondary; Make Plays! Vs. Cover 3, receivers must pay a price for running routes over the deep middle We will trade a headache for a first down on occasion Vs. Run attack with reckless abandon
