In this episode, I talk about:

• A step-by-step process for creating and naming defensive plays

• Why it doesn’t matter what you call things

• Why you should create ‘buckets’ or specific families before you name them

• How to create signals for each of your calls

• Building an inventory and why you should do it

• I go through my simulated pressure, or QB ‘family,’ of calls and their signals
