    Pundits will tell you it's 'shell' coverage, but it's more nuanced than that...
    Through ~2 weeks, we're seeing a massive dip in snaps, pass rate and touchdowns by NFL offenses. What the heck is going on?

    Still, nothing beats the time Army wore their literal snow camouflage to play Navy in '17. 🤣🤣🤣 --

    Keep coming back to this clip... It is such a good teach tape When I talk about stabbing the pec & slapping down to get the WR's arm down, this is what I mean The constant stab-slap slows the WR down, allowing the DB to stay in-phase #ArtofX // #DBU

    These Safeties for Ohio State will be a problem vs. the Texas run game. Arizona State was able to hold the Longhorns to 53 yards on 30 carries. To advance to the championship, Texas must improve its ground game in the Cotton Bowl. --

    Great look at how to get IN-PHASE when beat off the line. Don't look back for the ball. Chase mode. Slap the wrist to throw the WR's rhythm off & to get in control. DO NOT armbar! When in-phase, LOOK-n-LEAN. Run'em into the sideline. Track the ball. Press the hip. #ArtofX

    Like I tell my guys in BAIL tech, if you keep that low shoulder down (the one towards the WR) you create a more efficient break & transition because of body position All Ramsy had to do was snap that left arm down because he was already in his tuck Break 👉🏻 Accelerate 👉🏻 FINISH
    Jalen Ramsey with a great transition on that INT

    We've now hit the point where the pendulum swings back. Football has (forever) had a natural cycle. Offenses start to spread out; passing becomes more explosive. Defenses adjust by putting lighter players on the field to match the space. Offenses predictably run the ball.
