Cover 1 Peel Blitz

Here the Jaguars are in a 3-3-5 nickel personnel


The Rush:
Ends are contain with peel responsibility to cover the RB on any route crossing face. The Nose is working weak opposite the crossfire action from the Mike and Will. The weak side down safety is going depth and under into the B gap.

The Coverage:
Cover 1 with the edge rushers peeling for the RB.


The pass protection is a 5 man scat with the RB free releasing. Being in a scat protection forces the OL to block the 5 most dangerous threats. The guard has eyes on the mugged up Will LB. When the backer drops off and the Mike triggers to blitz the A gap the guard's eyes and feet are pulled to the strong side to help pick up the nose working away from the cross fire. The Guard working strong creates the run through for the B gap blitzing safety. The scat release RB is eaten up by the DE on the peel technique. Good design and execution from Jacksonville.
