What is Bracket Coverage?

—

» In this episode, I talk about:

• What are the different variations of Bracket covera?

• How does the coverage structure change when targeting the slot versus a single receiver?

• How do teams run a Bracket to the boundary with two removed from the box?

• Examine common man-bracket schemes.

• Relate the match version of Bracket to ‘old school’ Robber coverage in split-field schemes.
