Customer Reviews

Very in depth and thorough analysis of pass defense roles.

This is a very detailed account of the various coverages any defensive backs coach, or defensive coordinator should know. The author goes into great depth detailing each assignment for a number of combinations of Covers 2, 3, 4, and Man Coverage. Great care is also given to detailing various situations that arise from Goal Line to a flexible Cover 3 that can be used when a team throws a totally unexpected formation at you. I would highly recommend this book as a classic. Possibly THE classic in this area. My only caveat is that it IS a classic. This book was written in 1984, before the modern explosion in pass formations, and the variations we call the West Coast and/or Run and Shoot Offenses. I only wish he would update this book and talk about some of the new developments in it.
