This seems to follow the trend of pre-snap disguise. The defensive front is doing what the secondary has been doing....show one kind of look pre-snap and then change it post-snap. I have no idea how the linebackers can mentally handle the run or pass assignments as the play evolves.

Love your content..one small suggestion...maybe run the play through in slow mo/reg speed uninterrupted before or after the explanation so we can see the entire play .

This is so cool but so much jargon. Can you do a video on explaining the jargon?

Hey coach, for the 9ers clip, how do you tell 3T vs 4i? To me, the 4i looks very similar to the alignment of the 3T. Great stuff as usual

So to no me even front doesn’t mean 4 down linemen, it just means 2 or both the guards are covered. So a 4/3 under isn’t an even front. It’s an under front. Under/Over is 4/3 spacing and Odd/Even is 3/4 spacing regardless of how many dlinemen have their hand in the dirt. If you have a 3 and a 2i I would call that over/even spacing. Wide 9 with 2 3 techs would simply be wide. Wide 9 with 2 2 techs, Wide/Even front.
