Coach Narduzzi, or anyone, pls clarify for me. How does the CB play press while still playing 1/4 versus Smash routes. This seems a contradiction. I really like the CB technique discription here. We've had success with 1/4 cvr, but I cannot see how this works. Coach N emphasizes eyes on QB and aggressive on #1. Given 2x2, 8 yrds splits. #1 breaks fade then hook back to the QB at 15 yrds. The #2 breaks flag/corner at 15 yrds. Backfield is play action, or roll to onside, to freeze LB drop. What does the CB do? What does the Safety do? Who covers the #2 to the corner? If Safety sticks w #2 how is this different that M2M? Thanks.
safety will play #2 on any out or vertical. so yes, it basically turns into m2m vs smash (or any vertical/out concept by #2). a lot of press quarters teams will still have a smash alert though, to where the cb will sink off #1 if he runs a hitch. where it differs from true m2m is that the safety is not taking #2 on anything that is immediately shallow (drag, slant). that will get passed off to the underneath zone droppers.
I would say that the roots of Kyle's system go back to the West Coast world. Remember that his dad originally was part of a SF staff that ran the original West Coast offense.
Very first drill, you got a bunch of guys standing in line while one guy participates. Extra not it... Split them up and let half be the ball carrier. How much time are they wasting while the coach walks back to the starting point?
Pruitt is a great TEACHER Of the game of football, he does a great job EDUCATING you on the scheme, giving the who, what, where and why. Many coaches give u the what , without a complete education of all the information. Teach PRINCIPLES not plays.
This is awesome! Thanks for posting. People don’t realize how SIMPLE the Titans really keep it - and are always successful! As a Giants fan, the Titans are my favorite team to watch. I’m not rooting for them to win or anything - i just love watching the way they play football. This is also an excellent teaching tool for us mortals who coach at all the lower levels.
So I’m trying to understand the rules running wide zone to the weak side. The combos don’t seem to follow regular covered/uncovered rules. How come a C and PSG are combo on a 1 tech? The 1 tech is backside of the PSG. Wouldn’t the PSG be in combo with the PST towards the 5 or 9 tech? This would break the rules of the wide zone scheme that I was taught. I could see maybe a solo call for the PST to solo the DE and maybe the PSG give the C a hand as the PSG moved directly up to the LB but not combo the 1 tech with him. I’m just looking for some clarification. Thank You.
It’s all predicated on what the combo calls are. Example if the guard is not out leveraged by the linebacker there is no reason for him to chase to the DE. If the linebacker. Out leverages the combo then the guard has to make the combo with the tackle.
@@Coachcodutti1 okay I didn’t even considered this. I was assuming it had something to do with the alignment of the 1 tech (whether he was playing more of a 2i or shading more towards a 0). I didn’t consider that this was based on the alignment of the LBer. Thank you for the response. Is there a system that you use to determine which LBer will be for which combo? It sounded like you determine which LBer was the furthest combo play side and counted your way back… is this something that your lineman do to determine which LBer is in their combo?
