3-4 Back To The Future

[@louisxyz1]

Great video coach, I absolutely love the history of scheme development in football, super fascinating.

[@CoachMac]

Thank you

[@beneli7179]

Enjoyable video. Very interesting. Thanks coach!

[@CoachMac]

Thank you

I heard the Bud Wilkinson 5-2 did have DE's detach and play like an overhang LB, but they were still just called Defensive Ends.

[@CoachMac]

They did some yes, he made some changes because of the college game

[@coachzo4424]

Just did a deep dive into the 46 defense. I think I’m gonna back to the future.

[@CoachMac]

Love it, very simple to teach

[@VeoThon1]

Could you do a video on the best way to attack the broken 3-3 stack

[@CoachMac]

I can try

[@SuperWagner23]

Dick LeBeau with the Steelers played his ends in the 4I as disrupters and penetrators.

[@CoachMac]

Love it

Interesting video and evolution is something I need to look at closer. We ended up having to make a lot of adjustments every week to our defense because we saw everything this past season; Spread, Inverted Wishbone, Power Pistol, Traditional I, Spread Wing T, etc. So I'm looking at creating some basic rules to get into different fronts for different offenses. Any simple suggestions?

[@CoachMac]

3-4 stuff is pretty adjustable

[@Steve-qy8or]

A symmetrical defense allows you to adjust to just about everything with minimal movement by your players while keeping your rules intact. Look up some of his older videos, there is a ton of adjustments on them.

[@CoachMac]

@@Steve-qy8or which older videos?

[@Steve-qy8or]

@@CoachMac Hey Coach, love your stuff. These are some of the videos I was thinking of. Just to name a few. Simple 3-4 defense parts 1 and 2 Defending Empty Sets Why the 3-4?

[@CoachMac]

@@Steve-qy8or oh my older videos, sorry confused

[@dfens1987]

I thought Greasy Neal had a MLB instead of a nose, and the OLB's were up in the c gap like the old ND split 4. Where did you find the fifty version? I never knew he had a nose.

[@CoachMac]

I believe they would also use a Mike backer instead of nose and back him up at times. I think passing game stuff and offensive changes made him back the nose up to eventually become a MLB

We are an exclusive wide zone team and we are seeing a tite front on Friday against our biggest rival (both undefeated for a league title)? What do you think about pin and pull on the front side against the tite front?

[@CoachMac]

People have been doing it to us, but if your kids are playing well I would keep doing what they know

[@marcoeckhoff9920]

Hi Coach Mac, I would like to hear your thoughts about a 4-3 personal tite front.

[@CoachMac]

We do a little of it now but more 425 personnel

[@marcoeckhoff9920]

@@CoachMac That's fine with me. My Sam is a LB by name (so the player plays like one), but I handle him more like an extra Safety (especially when I look for the skillset I seek in that player) anyway. So I am still interessted in your thoughts about 4 man tite. ;)
