I agree, but just show it a couple times and slide down. We do not need to get Nuss hurt. It would give the defenses something to think about tho.

It’s literally a very popular coverage called quarter quarter half.

It can mean 4 deep players. Not safeties. Usually in straight cover 4 you have 2 safeties deep and 2 corners deep. But cover 4 has a bunch if different options. It’s sometimes referred to as cover 7 but usually called Quarters. Is it quarters Meg, Mod, or Mesh? Are they playing stubbie or stump? This is exactly what I was talking about. You think you understand the coverages but you don’t have a clue.

Alabama quarters match.

Oh man......You would be the first person without posting privileges.

All Cover 1, 2, 3, 4, and 0 are how many safeties fall back into zone coverage generally playing deep. Cover 0 is USUALLY a straight up man, with a heavy blitz. Some teams have aligned as Cover 0, and then fallen back into coverage. Cover 1 is one high safety and can be man or zone. Cover 2 is 2 high safeties. Once again, man or zone. Cover 3 is 3 High safeties. 95% of the time zone. Cover 4 is 4 high safeties. 100% zone unless you do some exotic blitz leaving someone uncovered.

You CAN NOT have Cover 4 on half the field and Cover 2 on the other side. Yes, there are ZONES inside of these coverages that do change.

Teams absolutely can and do run cover 4 (quarters) on one side and cover 2 on the other side. Often referred to as quarter-quarter-half. And no, that’s not the same thing as cover 3.

Also your whole rant about “cover 2” strictly meaning the number of high safeties is ignorant. You think teams put 4 safeties on the field when they run quarters?

Which is Cover 3 modified for more zone coverage to one side of the field. It's still cover 3.

Secondary players. Thats what it means. Generally safeties. Yes, DBs can play. Stop trying to act more intelligent by nitpicking basics.

You need to quit while you are behind cuz you are only getting further behind with everything you post in this thread. You don't know much about coverages and its showing.

No it's not. Cover 3 is a middle of the field safety coverage. Quarter Quarter Half is a split safety coverage. They are very different and have different applications. It's also different that you are playing a cover 2 corner to one side and in cover 3 you don't have a corner playing flats.

Teams don't bring in more safeties to play cover 4. Safeties are almost never the deep outside guys in cover 4. The corners are. Traditional cover 4 has the 2 outside deep zones covered by corners and 2 high safeties playing the middle 2 deep zones.

That was my entire point. Coverages are so unique now the average fan can't understand them. Case in point yourself.

You can if you want. But based on your previous post I'm pretty sure you can't explain them.

QB run is not what RPO is. Its handoff or throw. QB can run but no more than on a regular run play.

Read-option is when the QB can pull and run. But stop using RPO as Read Option.

plenty cover 3 is man under with a 3 man rush. that leaves 5 guys to cover all possible receivers underneath in man coverage. of course it can be used in zone also.

Nuss needs to learn to that it’s ok to run for positive yards when the downfield options are covered. He need to be more Mahomes and less Favre. There is nothing more deflating to a defense on 3rd and 6 than a QB scrambling for 7yds.

McElroy said it best on the OM broadcast. He saw the opening to scramble for big yardage before the ball was snapped on a few occasions.

Just from a pure coaching aspect. Cover 3 is considered always to be zone. Teams do play 3 high man under coverages but they wont call it cover 3. Cover 2,3,4 when speaking about the base versions are all considered zone. Cover 1 or 0 would be considered man. If you use a 2 high shell and play man teams would consider that 2 man. Like previously stated teams are rarely in these base type coverages these days. They are almost always in one of the quarters match coverages or some type of man.

Edited to add- Palms coverage is also very popular which is a version of man with a bunch of brackets.

I agree. My issue isn't that he doesn't have a PHD in pass coverage. My issue is that he is acting like he does while simultaneously failing 101.
