44 / 46 Defense. There are so many views on Defense. I am a firm believer Defense sets the tone of the game.It says a lot about your team. To get right to the point of it, if your Defense is soft so is your team. Thanks too, Carl Dennis and Todd Bross ( slide # 3 ).

Teaching progression for all Defensive positions • Stance • Alignment • Assignment • Keys • Pursuit • Tackling Plan your drills with this progression in mind.Your teaching will be more organized and time effective.If a drill is not associated with one of the key areas, then it does not apply to your defensive practiceplan.
One of the Great Things About Football Is That, Although It Is a Simple Game, It Is Full of a Multitude of Minute Complexities That, Through Correct Education, Repetition, Correction & Execution, Become Habit. The less you need to talk/yell/coach/correct/encourage as a coach, the more fundamentally sound the player/team is. COME ON OVER

Review of the 46 by John Carbon The bear 46 has three linemen from tackle to tackle so it is odd front (the original bear was a change up from based out of a 4-3 platform package. These days it is based out of a 3-4 platform in the pro's). It is should be hard to run inside on the 46. It has two shaded linemen so they do not need to be dominant. It does have a heads up player in the NG so he must be a talented player. Now if he is a shaded NG then he does not have to be dominant but then you need a linebacker that makes up for the other "a" gap.
2 The outside run is defended by two defensive ends and the "c" gaps are defended by the outside backers. The outside backers must be dual responsibility of covering the TE and closing down "c" gap if threatened. It should be hard to run off-tackle and sweep the 46. The 46 talent wise needs at least two very good outside backers. The sweep would be defended by two disciplined defensive ends.
3 The pass is defended by the secondary made up of the free safety and the corner backs. They are assisted by the three linebackers. It should be hard to pass on the 46 but it still is dependant on good play by it's CB's in man to man coverage. The CB's must be talented because they are on an island in coverage. In the case of an option team I would like my FS to be fast, a good reader and a sure open field tackler.
4 Now, for me to run the 46 I would have to see if I had the minimum talent to run it. In this case a pair of decent CB's and a FS, two talented OLB's and a dominant NG. Remember I said that if my NG is shaded he does not need to be dominant but then my MLB would have to make up the difference in the other "a" gap. Add to that the two disciplined DE's. The only place I could hide less talent would have to be the DT positions.
