Dime 3-2-6 Spinner Buck Dog 1 – An aggressive blitz pressure scheme that’s used by teams such as LSU and Nebraska, Dime 3-2-6 Spinner Buck Dog 1 is a good play to use in passing situations. The play uses a six man pass rush which includes the right cornerback. This concept along with reference material was provided to us through community feedback
So badass! Nebraska destroyed Missouri with this "spinner" package last year. Word out of spring practice says they're working on a version of this for the big 10 too that's more like a 3-4 (50 front) defense. Can't wait to try this out!Quote:

Interesting. I wonder why the change in play art for the safety playing man coverage? Is that a late coverage assignment where the safety fakes playing high and then flies over?

Hmm. Looks like man disguised as zone. Is that what we're seeing Kwizzy? Very promising for the defensive side of the ball!
I generally don't like blitz calls where one guy (of the 5 potential receivers) is left totally uncovered. I suppose you could manually control the safety and pick up the wide open receiver but unless its 3rd and long and the only person uncovered is a back and/or te running out in the flat this could be risky.
I often just control the MLB in a situation like this and read the HB... if he goes out for a pass, I cover him, if he blocks, I blitz or play a hook zone.Quote:

Couple of things about this play....
1) This is definitely not a play you would call if you're worried about the offense getting 5 yards. This is a 3rd and long play that gets the defense off the field. The basic idea is to make the QB get the ball out early. If the QB reads the corner blitz and gets the ball out hot to the WR, the FS either jumps the route for a pick or simply makes the tackle before the sticks forcing the punt.
2) I know that IRL, some of Pelini's blitzes utilize a "peel" technique where the outside blitzer on each side will cover the RB if they run a route to his side or continue the blitz if not. Unfortunately I doubt the game has that built in but like gschwendt said, it can be done manually.
3) I have seen Pelini run this corner blitz action in a simple Cover 1 Defense against some power running teams (K-State this past year) to limit cutbacks & force the RB to hit the hole rather than wait for his blocks to develop. In the game in the past I have done this by using a Double X or Z defense and hot routing the CB to blitz.
Any way you cut it, it's a really neat concept.
Very nice concept.This looks also like a play that you would run the corner from the short side of the field to give the safety less field to cover. This is one of the plays that makes the ratings for zone and man coverage from safety really stick. It will now matter even more if you want to sub a fast and good safety package in for man coverage on just this type of play. Thank God it's not a zone. I'm getting sick of "this is great, but if zone defense isn't fixed it's all for not blah blah"

Cover 2 Sink has both corners getting depth on their zone drops in order to take away the natural void in Cover 2 between the safeties and cornerbacks.
Yay! The Predator look. About god damn time! Now flesh it out and make it an actual formation (instead of only 6-10 plays) and I'll be happy.
Looks really nice. I hear ya Mors, hopefully all of the new formations and playbooks have been fleshed out.

Rover Wk Dog is a pressure scheme that allows the defense to rush four defenders at the weak side of the offense.
Very nice! Eventually I would like to see an overhauled presnap adjustment system, especially on defense, that would allow these types of adjustments (CB's in press/off, etc... ) to be made on the fly to any play quickly. Very nice concept though.
