    Don't mess with those Fowler guys: On July 18, 2017, Dante Fowler was arrested in St. Petersburg, Florida for simple battery and committing mischief. Fowler confronted a man who commented about his driving, struck the man, broke his glasses, and threw a bag containing liquor into a lake. He was released from jail the next day on a $650 bond. On March 1, 2018, Dante Fowler pleaded no contest to battery, criminal mischief, and petty theft. He was fined $2,575, received a year of probation, and was ordered to undergo 75 hours of community service.[38] His younger brother, Donterio Fowler, was arrested in July 2021 in connection to a 2016 murder of a Florida International University student.

  • @mjciavola
    @mjciavola 5 дней назад

    So how is it determined which are the gaps to be covered? What is not clear in your diagram is why there is no gap between the tight end and the inner man of the cluster. There are 8 men within a yard of the line of scrimmage, so to me, there are 9 gaps. So, pre-snap, number 27 should be covering that gap and number 35 would be covering the outside gap. It plays out that way anyway, right? The other confusion for me is that I thought that gaps off wide receivers were not normally run fitted. So, I wouldn't think that number 27 would need to fit.

    • @HowToLinebacker
      @HowToLinebacker 5 дней назад

      The gap created by the inside man in the cluster ends up outside both the TE and the cracking receiver. Every gap must be accounted for in the run fits. In this case, if a wr is blocking, there is a definite gap created by him and it must be fit by the appropriate defender. Conner’s receiver (the inside of the cluster) carries a gap with him wherever he goes.

  • @mjciavola
    @mjciavola 6 дней назад

    So for a 7 man box, you said the gaps filled by the linebacker are dependent on the direction of the running back. I'm assuming that the same holds true for a 6 man box?

    • @HowToLinebacker
      @HowToLinebacker 6 дней назад

      7-man box really means 2 high safeties. Cover 2 and Cover 4 are 7-man boxes. 8-man box really means 1 high safety. Cover 1 and cover 3 are 8-man boxes. The actually number of players in the “box” is more a function of the offensive formation. Does that make sense? I’ll do another video of a 7-man box vs 1 back and one of an 8-man box vs 2 backs. That will show you what I mean about having 2 gap responsibilities pre snap in those situations. This is a great topic and often misunderstood. I’m going to clear this up for you! Thanks for the thoughtful questions!

    • @mjciavola
      @mjciavola 5 дней назад

      @@HowToLinebacker Part of my confusion is probably with terminology. What you are describing is what I'm used to calling "spacing," as in 8-man spacing or 7-man spacing...as opposed to men in the box which I call the actual number of men who are physically located from tackle to tackle (the "box") So, theoretically you can have say, 7 men in the box, but 8 man spacing. Obviously, with all cover 1/3 defenses you don't actually have 8 men in the tackle box, especially with a spread formation. It made sense to me when I heard that the "spacing" terminology was created with the assumption of 2 back formations.

    You are clearly wrong about the defensive coverage here. Johnson is the extra man to the field side in a MOZ system - notice that they are 4 v 3 there, while the FS is the extra man to the short side, with Bernard effectively on the RB. Against a run it is supposed to be LC50 LB58 LA92 RA43 RB91 RC52. We can have a discussion about how sensible this all is but let's at least talk about the play as they drew it up rather than making up something else entirely and throwing false blame about. If you do have to blame someone here, I would focus first of all on #50, who is actually the free man but gets completely confused by the play design and doesn't chase it down properly. If he follows the tackle inside to cover what is the original RA gap then Bernard can be more aggressive in stepping into the original RC gap, which would force the RB back to the middle where the defence would be able to shut it down for a short gain. It is of course excellent play design in finding a way to exploit the way Buffalo sets up its pass defence. Analysing the play under the assumption of a completely different pass defence is just a waste of time.

    • @HowToLinebacker
      @HowToLinebacker 10 дней назад

    So if an 8 man box is 1 man=1 gap, does that mean a 7 man box requires someone to play 2 gaps?

    • @HowToLinebacker
      @HowToLinebacker 10 дней назад

      It’s a little more complicated than that. If there are no pullers, then a 7 man box vs one back or an 8 man box vs 2 backs would mean the linebackers would each have one of two gaps depending on what side of the center the fullback (8 man box) goes to or the single back (7 man box) goes to.

    • @HowToLinebacker
      @HowToLinebacker 11 дней назад

      Yes. That is referred to as cover 1, because there is only 1 deep defender. This is a variation of cover one in which there’s also one free underneath player called the rat. Hence the name “ 1 rat” the other 5 non pass-rush defenders each have one “man”.

      It’s probably a check based on the alignment of the receiver.

Josh Allen looks genuinely surprised to see Karloftis on the edge. And good thing too, because Kincaid was wide open.

      First….these guys are both legends and I have the highest respect for them. However, Seth Joyner’s comments are a little short sighted and simplistic. I’m sure he realizes that and is making interesting observations for people discuss as opposed to really being committed to these observations as facts. Trotter is a little more contemporary and obviously has stayed close the the game and (it seems) is being respectful of Joyners observations, even though they’re incomplete.
