The Perfect Change-Up: Dissecting the Packers’ Inverted Tampa 2 Sim

How Green Bay Marries Rush & Coverage

» In this episode:

  • The “Change-Up” Philosophy: How Green Bay uses zone pressures as a strategic counter to their primary man-coverage “fastball”.

  • Elite Efficiency: Analyzing why the Packers allow just 1.38 yards per dropback on 2-High pressures despite having one of the lowest blitz rates in the league.

  • Simulated Pressures: Breaking down the mechanics of the “Pick” pressure that utilizes a four-man rush to simulate a heavy blitz.

  • Inverted Tampa 2 Rotations: How post-snap safety spins create “Robber” triangles that disguise intentions and eliminate downfield throws.

  • Creating Coverage Sacks: Why the “synchronicity” of the rush and coverage forces the quarterback to hold the ball rather than the pressure getting home immediately.
