@@robertbarrett1035 No doubt you're one of the Rugby for pansies brigade, and Rugby Union a game where the rules on obstruction and offside have to be ignored to get any play at all. How do I know? I'm a Brit who was forced to play it for 7 years at school. US Football is way tougher.
My Highschool coach had us run this defense and we dominated our league with it. We went from 5-5 to 9-1 three seasons in a row once we switched to this defense. The best game a runningback had on us during that stretch was like 40 yards
@@8hunnidbands no shit. Different positions. Joey is still one of the top DE and Derwin healthy, is a top 3 safety and one of the best box safety in the league. We also have Chris Harris Jr. And Asante Samuel Jr.
The Tite Front is an inside run killer. Super popular in college not just cause of the RPO’s but also how it shuts down Inside Zone. Really hard to get leverage on those 4i’s.
Yep, I know I’m over a year late but Iowa State with Heacock’s 3-3 3 high and Dave Aranda at his various stops with his 3-4 both implement the tite front to great success. It’s funny, they’re both now in the Big 12 and playing great defense, yet people still think it’s an offensive league that plays no defense because of Oklahoma’s struggles defensively against top teams
I'm from the Philippines where practically no one plays or even watches American football. But it's this type of content that draws me in. The sport is a perfect combination of physicality, intelligence, and statistical probabilities. It's a complete game.
I think the Chargers can make a run this year. They had a sneaky good draft and off-season. Staley will have Derwin James back and Bosa could be his Aaron Donald.
Idk about Bosa being his Donald, I doubt Staley is gonna run the same scheme he ran with Rams because we don't necessarily have a CB like Ramsey or a DL thats as dominant in the line as AD but forming another scheme off of Bosa and Derwin skillsets will be interesting along with Davis and a few other playmakers on that team
@@samwroblewski748 It’s a different thing tho, he’s an edge rusher. Staley’s theoretical problem with 2 high is the run. Donald, as a dominant interior lineman, helps negate that vulnerability. Bosa may be nearly as good as Donald, but not an A/B gap player. And we’ve got some vulnerabilities against the run. (Less so if we get James back healthy.)
@@raijin8718 ad is definitely better against the run but bosa is an insane pass rusher, constantly top 3 in pressure rate. I think the basic principles of this defense can transfer over even though the rams have more talented players
Absolutly love the defensive episodes! The Rams' were one of my favorite teams to watch last season. With AD and Jalen they might very well have the two best defensive players in the NFL. I'm a little bit annoyed that NFL offenses were so incredibly productive last season since I have a soft spot for defenses (I play DB myself) but watching defenses like the Rams lightened my mood. Hope they can be similarly dominant even without Brandon Staley. Keep up the good work🔥
Thanks TLC21! I think with more regular offseason offensive numbers will go down again. Last time there was a similar offensive explosion was the lock out season when defenses couldn't practice nearly as much during the offseason.
@@yurr1870 Thanks! I think Stafford is the REAL DEAL. I’m excited for this season! But I know the 49ers are always going to give us trouble. Good luck man
After watching this video and watching Brett kollmans breakdown of derwin James after his rookie year. I’m interested to see what Brandon Staley cooks up.
Awesome video! You just made me a Brandon Staley stan, his ideas just seem so logical, and utilise the skills of his best players. Really curious to see how he changes things to work for the Chargers, and looking forward to you breaking it down.
I know he ain’t got Donald and Ramsey, but he gonna do some damn good stuff with Bosa and James, despite them being different positions than the former. Bunch of other weapons on the defense as well
Yea Staley certainly was a part of that defense and learned a lot being a part of it but it was Fangio’s scheme and play calling that made the bears D (and now the Broncos D) elite Side not if he gets fired this year because of bridgewater or lock dragging them to 7-10 or something I’ll be upset and I’m not even a Broncos fan
Here's what you missed: Aaron Donald is secretly 3 people, so whenever they have 3 down lineman, it's actually 5. This gives them a numbers advantage against the run, even though when the offense reads their lineup it seems that they have the advantage.
Chargers could’ve easily been 10-6 last year but Gus Bradley’s trash ass scheme choked too many times. That being said I’m so pumped to see what Staley defense will bring the chargers! DJ is back as well!
@@Dutchmaster707 umm.. Herbert was 31-10 touchdown to int ratio, had exactly one fumble turnover (while getting smacked like a piñata behind our O-line), quit bogarting the stash.
Well I finally have something to be excited about other than always looking forward to a QB that can throw for 4000 yds... but that equalled zero championship appearances.

@@thunderbolts2438 lol I think expectation management, given our record and Mahomes in the division, means the bar’s not too high. Say 10-7 w/o injuries, which should be eminently doable. I simply don’t have a clue what happens with a decent o-line, been years.

@@clownindan I will never forget the patriots game when we got blown out 45-0. most pathetic display of coaching I've ever seen. He shoulda been fired after that game
Great stuff and great examples. The B-Roll you use is always excellent. One minor quibble: I wonder if it would be possible to turn up the volume on your voice overs. After the intro music (which I really like), the drop off in sound always stands out and i have to turn up the volume on my computer. Just a thought!
The Rams also ran a lot of 3 men fronts with 3 DTs, Donald and Brockers in the 3 and 4 technique, wich is actually their natural position, and SJD at NT. They also had plenty of DTs to rotate them in that formation. Most teams prioritize the DE position, and most DEs can't play the 3-4 technique nearly as well as a DT. There was more to the rams personel than just AD99 and Ramsey.
The biggest loss this off season for the Rams wasn't losing any of their free agents, it was losing Brandon Staley. Raheem Morris is going to try to duplicate it but let's face it... Morris isn't Staley. Whether Morris can figure it out and make the same in-game adjustments that Staley would've is doubtful. Morris has basically the same defense coming back sans John Johnson and Troy Hill so we'll get to see just how much of a difference an elite DC can have on a defense vs a regular DC. Expect the Rams D to slip a little this year. They're still stacked defensively but when talent meets scheme good things happen. When talent lacks scheme... I guess we'll see.
Loved this video, right up there with the one describing how Belichick stacked the box with linebackers to stuff Sean Mcvay's play action. Funny that defenses are going to have to do the opposite now. Teams were copying Belichick almost immediately, so I would imagine to see plenty of this week 1.
Thanks Stephen! I'll be very interested to see how offenses react heading into next year and if Staley can continue his success with the Chargers personnel
This is vic fangio's defense, staley studied him for years. Its like a mix of fangio and saban. Crazy how staley is getting the bulk of credit for it and not vic lol but great video anyway
Also helps that you have Aaron Donald in the middle who requires two or three blockers every down. So an even set up is essentially a 1 player advantage because you got Aaron 1 on 1 or you got someone streaking free.
For those who might not know: The two ways a defense plays the run with only 6 or 7 in the box tend to be: • The over/under fronts where the weak side safety has flat coverage and weak side end run force support. *If you play Madden, you might notice cover 3 defenses where your safeties look like a split cover two over the top. That isn't a mistake. That is real. Just be sure to flip your defense so the safety with flat coverage is opposite the TE. You can also shift your defensive line or linebackers towards the TE.* • You ask both CBs to be belt force support or play the flats in pass coverage. *In Madden, this is the typical Tampa 2 with both CBs in light blue zones. This is a front where you often want to pinch your line and spread your LBs. Your front 7 is trying to clog the middle and trust your CBs to stop wide runs.*
@@AlexRollinsNFL - You are a 49ers fan. Remember 2011-2013? Carlos Roger, T. Brown (#25), Spencer? There is a reason they drafted Jimmy Ward back then. The physical press corner who tackles well is very much a mold teams coach up from a young age. Even our current 49ers have E-Man (Moseley) and Jason Verrette. Didn't we get a physical CB in the draft? Edit: Yes, Ambry Thomas. Traded both 4th round picks to go up and get him.
I wonder if this is what the Browns are planning on. Getting Troy Hill allows Denzel Ward to follow the opposite wr1, we got more safeties that can do some LB things in JJ3 and Richie Lecounte along with Ronnie Harrison and linebackers that can do some safety things in JOK and Tony Fields. It'll be interesting to see.
We shall see.. Joe Woods came from the 49ers so he's another one of the Pete Carroll disciples basically. But you're right, the recent offseason moves certainly make it seem like it!
As a Seahawks fan, i'm very glad he is no longer in our division. Bad enough playing against Donald and Ramsey, but a good scheme to top it all off, too? No thanks lol
Interesting video. Great scheme, but definitely need the players to pull it off. Looking forward to seeing how good the Chargers defense will be this coming season.
Supposedly Joe Barry (who was the assistant HC in LA last year, and worked closely with Brandon Staley) was hired to bring Staley’s scheme to Green Bay. Time will tell if Barry can do it, but if he’s able to pull it off, I’d be very interested to see what Kenny Clark and Jaire Alexander would look like as the cornerstones to this scheme.
Hey Alex. The Browns have similar roster advantages with CB Denzel Ward and DE Myles Garrett. Very curious if the Browns use any elements of this scheme? And why or why not. Thanks!
As a Bolts fan, this gets me pumped! even if his scheme doesn't work right away, I'm sure it will be far better than Gus Bradley's and that's all that matters lol
We get a defensive battle between the Broncos and Pathers, and again with NE and the Rams... so people call the games boring. We get a shoot out, like KC vs Rams in the regular season and people say the defense was terrible. We get one side that can play defense and the other getting smashed and we have Tampa Bay vs KC, where people knew it was over by half time or earlier. Fans don't know wtf they want.
@@AlexRollinsNFL - You and I both sir. There is a reason that pass to Gronk was such a big deal, and the missed/late shots by Goff. Those are games teeter on five or fewer key plays.
I think it’s gonna be easier for the Rams to continue this scheme without Staley than it will be for Staley to implement it elsewhere. I’ll be interested to see if both LA teams can evolve
I mean LAC has a lot of talent Justin Jones and Linval Joseph on the DL are runstopping monsters and Jerry Tillery and Uchenna Nwosu fit the exact mold out of what Staley wants out of his EDGE and 4i and then there I just a top 5 edge rusher with Joey Bosa and then the Chargers LB core is way better then the Rams with Kenneth Murray Drue Tranquil and Kyzir White
both LA teams have at least 2 excellent db’s so it’s not going to be that much different, which should mean that the chargers d can be top 11 this year barring injury
The next evolution of defense turned out to be having two players who were the best at their positions and a few other pro bowl types at key positions on your team. Just do that, DCs, and you're golden. You too can shut down offenses like Staley.
Staley will figure out how to maximize the talents of the current Chargers roster. It may not look like the Rams last season but it doesn't have to. Bosa often double teamed will have more opportunities this season. Rumph will fill a role much like Leonard Floyd of the Rams did last season.
Alex, why did the niners seem to have the rams number the past few years? Was it because shanahans offence countered that staley defence, we got lucky, or because our defense smothered the rams?
I can see defenses taking Stanley’s concepts that created confusion on RPOs. That alone can slow down a lot of offenses and doesn’t require defensive superstars to implement.
The Packers hired Joe Barry who worked with Stanley last year. The Packers happen to have Jaire Alexander who is one of the best CBs currently in the league and Kenny Clark who when healthy is a beast of a man to block. I think if anyone is likely to copy the Rams and be able to find real success doing it, it will be the Packers.
Hoping Joe Barry brings some of these things from the Rams to the Packers. Their offense (if Rodgers plays) with a very good defense would be unstoppable.
I think the Eagles could do something Similar with Fletcher Cox and Darius Slay. Sure they might not be "as good" as Ramsey and Donald but they got a seat at the table with them.

He now has the chess pieces. Mack, Bosa, Derwin, and JC. And they will eventually find a disruptive enough DT. Do you think 🤔 it will work now?
I do!
SJD in the Middle
I feel like a power running attack with play action would do well against this style of defense.
Great vid, so executed to see the chargers D this year
Thanks brother!
Aaron donald is a beast , but chargers has Joey bosa and Tillery , both can be a problem for O-lines
Yes but I really hope Tillery develops and has a huge step up year
So a defense with Donald and Brockers on D line and Ramsey at CB is successful?
We get a defensive battle between the Broncos and Pathers, and again with NE and the Rams... so people call the games boring.
We get a shoot out, like KC vs Rams in the regular season and people say the defense was terrible.
We get one side that can play defense and the other getting smashed and we have Tampa Bay vs KC, where people knew it was over by half time or earlier.
Fans don't know wtf they want.
Facts
I like the defensive matchups! Pats-Rams was great football imo, I'd way rather watch a close game even if it's low scoring
@@AlexRollinsNFL - You and I both sir. There is a reason that pass to Gronk was such a big deal, and the missed/late shots by Goff. Those are games teeter on five or fewer key plays.
I think it’s gonna be easier for the Rams to continue this scheme without Staley than it will be for Staley to implement it elsewhere. I’ll be interested to see if both LA teams can evolve
Especially without Aaron Donald and Jalen Ramsey.
Agreed
I mean LAC has a lot of talent Justin Jones and Linval Joseph on the DL are runstopping monsters and Jerry Tillery and Uchenna Nwosu fit the exact mold out of what Staley wants out of his EDGE and 4i and then there I just a top 5 edge rusher with Joey Bosa and then the Chargers LB core is way better then the Rams with Kenneth Murray Drue Tranquil and Kyzir White
both LA teams have at least 2 excellent db’s so it’s not going to be that much different, which should mean that the chargers d can be top 11 this year barring injury
@@SoCalSlime I definitely think they’ll be really good but I don’t think they’ll be Rams level.
as a Raiders fan I'm scared but excited
The next evolution of defense turned out to be having two players who were the best at their positions and a few other pro bowl types at key positions on your team.
Just do that, DCs, and you're golden. You too can shut down offenses like Staley.
Staley will figure out how to maximize the talents of the current Chargers roster. It may not look like the Rams last season but it doesn't have to. Bosa often double teamed will have more opportunities this season. Rumph will fill a role much like Leonard Floyd of the Rams did last season.
I dont think it would have worked as well with out Donald and Ramsey. Its not like every team couldve done this.
Chicago Bears were #1 when he was there with Vic Fangio too.
Will you do a video about why denvers defense is sucking even though they have fangio whos supposed to be a mastermind?
I'll put them on the list!
Alex, why did the niners seem to have the rams number the past few years? Was it because shanahans offence countered that staley defence, we got lucky, or because our defense smothered the rams?
I probaly also helps to have arguably the best pass rusher and the best coverage player in the nfl on your team...
U should come with a video how greenbay picked them apart
I can see defenses taking Stanley’s concepts that created confusion on RPOs. That alone can slow down a lot of offenses and doesn’t require defensive superstars to implement.
This is by far the best video of the year =)
The Packers hired Joe Barry who worked with Stanley last year. The Packers happen to have Jaire Alexander who is one of the best CBs currently in the league and Kenny Clark who when healthy is a beast of a man to block. I think if anyone is likely to copy the Rams and be able to find real success doing it, it will be the Packers.
Some great points there bro, good call! I could see several of their other guys fitting in nicely if they decide to go that route
Hoping Joe Barry brings some of these things from the Rams to the Packers. Their offense (if Rodgers plays) with a very good defense would be unstoppable.
Damn big praise for Mooney’s son
Mooney Jr. is a very good player still
Which player usually two gaps? Is it the 0 tech?
Typically yes
@@AlexRollinsNFL Are there certain situations that would dictate which player two gaps? Like a formation or down and distance?
@@TheInterloperTV Certainly not on 3rd downs and not when you have just 1 high safety
I feel like this only works bc of Aaron Donald tho. He is just a one of a kind player
Yeah im with you Jalen and Donald are the best defensive players at there position.
I think the Eagles could do something Similar with Fletcher Cox and Darius Slay. Sure they might not be "as good" as Ramsey and Donald but they got a seat at the table with them.
