How to play Cover 1 in Football!

[@Rogerdo]

Maaaaaaannnnnnn, this is what football has been missing. You’re going to make the evolution of football so much better by giving these younger dudes access to this info early in their career. Good shit bro.

[@NewEraSportsPodcast]

You have to be a student of the game. To understand the concept of defense in football. Great breakdown! GQ!!!

[@victorgraysen854]

You probably dont care but if you guys are stoned like me atm you can watch pretty much all the new movies on Instaflixxer. Have been watching with my brother during the lockdown =)

[@gatlinthatcher7651]

@Victor Graysen Definitely, have been watching on Instaflixxer for since november myself :D

[@believethehype9802]

this shows u the great knowledge football players have. it takes me a few times to rly get a good grasp on this stuff and i forget it rly easily haha!

[@thedbroom]

We also have been doing this for years! But I promise it will help make watching football more enjoyable!

[@believethehype9802]

You make it easier GQ and I will keep watching these thanks!

[@believethehype9802]

Ooooh I can't wait to gain football knowledge then watch ball again I bet itll be a whole different experience!

Coming up quick in the KZbin game GQ!! Great to see former players spreading knowledge.. and to make it better you're one of the only ones I've watched who breaks it down with thorough explanation and examples. #OnePrideOrDontRide 💪🏾🦁

[@eie2797]

I’ve watched a ton of coverage videos and I have to say your videos are the best at explaining concepts. Great job

[@unitedairlinesscrewedmeove3900]

Great stuff!! Thank you for making it so simple to understand!!

[@ryanclark9386]

I hope he still makes these videos this guy is such a great teacher and his channel is so underrated it ahould have so many more views and subs Im trying to learn to coach Juco football im currently the equipment manager and film guy but wanna learn and this helps so much

[@bitchwitchify]

Thankyou so much really well explained wanted to understand this every time I watch a game👍

[@lukegsfieldreview5039]

Almost to 1k but still not 1mil so the campaign continues. Keep it coming to many learning football from madden when they should be looking for your channel and others like it that actually teach football concepts

[@thedbroom]

Right! The subs will come man! Not too worried about that! Just trying to build the channel authentically! Not going after click bait just to get people on! If people want to learn more they will subscribe!

[@lukegsfieldreview5039]

@@thedbroom I agree with you I use to play LB in college and I am always trying to learn more so I appreciate what you are doing I can't wait until your next Q&A because I have a question I really want your thoughts on

[@thedbroom]

Cool write it down! I may start doing live Q&As at the end of the month to answer questions from the months videos!!

Thanks GQ, I'm trying to learn as much as I can and your videos are a big help!

[@elbertmuhammad5328]

Brotha I'm going to teach from this all spring. Thank you very much.

[@doseofdion2.04]

We’re back!

[@BongzillaBrutus]

When you coming back with more knowledge for us? I just discovered your channel and I'm kicking myself for not seeing it sooner.

[@fernandovaldivia8605]

I thought the closed side was the right side since most qbs are right handed? May you explain please? Awesome sho2!!!! I love it

[@akshayjalluri195]

When there is YAC motion do the DE and DT adjust their positions by shifting one gap to accommodate for the shift of TE to the other side or do they just stay in the same place? also would the Wheel and Sam linebacker also switch as well or no?

[@ryanclark9386]

Anyone know what program hes using to be able to move the circles around its so cool ?

[@hinesandshine]

Great stuff big dawg.

[@seanh6709]

Great breakdown GQ, can you maybe cover leverages and where DB's should be typically lining up against different formations? I know the SS plays outside leverage in Cover 1 but would you also have your other guys play outside too? I'm an offensive coach down in Texas but making the move over down to the defensive (good) side Haha and your videos are a lot of help. Thank you

[@chrislehane-xw3sf]

Liked your video hi from uk

[@viciousv81]

Love your breakdowns

[@Drorlord]

What playmaker are you using? (White board)

[@vinniexl75]

I would like to know too!

[@jacobwirth6709]

How would you determine where a SS would be on the field if the offense is running a double TE formation?

[@thedbroom]

12 personnel is tough bc it depends on who you want the SS to cover! You have to determine who is the better blocker and who is the better WR!

[@MsKimba18]

In madden this play sucks because you can easily identify it and just have two Receivers near the sidelines going deep and one safety can’t cover both, or you can run slants and it works the same way just lower down the field is this similar to how it goes irl?

[@thedbroom]

It depends on who the safety is and how good the quarterback is!!

[@tonym2513]

The DB Room the safety is Glover Quin, the qb is Matthew Stafford. How does it play out?!

[@thedbroom]

Haha Stanford throws a good deep ball to the sideline! Tough to intercept but also tough to hit that spot all the time!! Pass rush plays a lot in it too!!

[@JermSama2212]

Question: Is there a difference between a 5-2 defense playing cover 1 vs a 3-4 defense playing Cover 1?

[@thedbroom]

Only difference is the amount of people you have to cover! If you only have 2 linebackers and you have 2 backs, then both of those guys have to cover so you lose you low hole free player! If you have 3-4, then you have 4 guys to cover 2! So now you can rush one of those backers to create 4 man pressure, cover with 2 of them, and still have free player in middle!

[@josephfxi7487]

Great video 👏,

[@Johnjohnson-zg4ek]

What abt unbalanced sets like 3x1?

[@aaronconners5570]

Man loveeeeee these videos break it down so simple

[@javanrozzelle6984]

Can you explain the close call again

[@1MarcelArrington]

Thank you so much

[@PhilippinesOnDemand]

Hello Sir, my friends are STOKED man. Anyway, sure wish I had these types of Instructional Videos when I was playing ball back in the day! Do you think there's a point to which a player can over think the terminology & concepts which makes him play tight? At what point does a player just go out and don't think and just ball? Is over thinking it sometimes an issue for a player? Thanks in advance!

[@thedbroom]

I think players play tight and try to over think when they don’t really understand the ins and outs of the defense! When you know everything that you have really well! When you know what they are gonna try to do to beat or attack you, you can go out and just ball! When you can spend more time thinking about the other team as opposed to think about your responsibility, you can just play and have fun!

[@joaobranco3397]

We more content bro this is lite
