Jaguar Defense

Jag Defense

By Lan Vu

​Technique: Where to line up

​Defensive calls consist of 3 parts.

• Fronts (how the down linemen are aligned)

  • 31, 22, 13

• Stunts/Blitz (changes to base responsibilities)

• Coverage (how we cover the recivers

Example: 31 Salute Red

• 31 tells the two tackles how to alingment

• Salute tells the D-Line and LB what gap to take

• Red tells the DB man coverage

​Strength call:

• Done by the LB but everyone should be able to call

• Based on the Tight end (TE, Y) or the alingment of the running back.

• RIP- strong right

• LIZ- stron left

​Fronts: 31

​31 with a RIP call

• DE- outside shade of OT, resonbible for C gap

• ST- T to the strength call, outside shade of the guard. Responsible for B gap

• BT- the tackle away from the strength call, outside shade of the C. Responsible for weak A gap

​Front 4 alignments
