a zone defense where two defensive backs (two safeties) each cover a half of the deep part of the field, aiming to prevent long passes

a man-to-man coverage scheme where all defensive backs except one (usually the free safety) are assigned to cover a specific receiver, with that lone safety playing deep in the middle of the field to react to the play

the distance between offensive linemen or wide receivers at the line of scrimmage. It describes how wide or tight they are spread out. "Tight" splits mean players are lined up closer together, while "wide" splits mean they are further apart

maintaining your shoulders parallel to the line of scrimmage

the order in which offensive linemen address defensive players on the field. It's a system where linemen prioritize blocking defensive linemen (first level), then linebackers (second level), and potentially defensive backs (third level).
