» In this episode:
Learn how to create pressure on the quarterback without sending a blitz by using a simple internal twist from a four-man front.
Break down the “Boss” or “Load” front setup, which places the “bigs” on the same side to manipulate the offensive protection.
Understand the mechanics of the “Not” stunt, where the Nose penetrates the A-gap first to occupy blockers and create an alley for the looping tackle.
See why the pressure is effective even when the offensive line picks up the stunt, as the movement naturally creates leverage for the defensive linemen.
Watch how the design forces the quarterback to step up into the looper or escape into contain rushers, creating a “vice” that prevents escape.
