Defensive Back "Corner" Cover 3 & Man Rules

Cover - 3 Zone Coverage Rules

 Corners – align 1 inside by 7 yards deep & skate the 3-step    /   catch & 1 step by the QB keying quick game.  
                 -  NO Quick game then rifle 10 yards deep to divider  identifying the release of the #2 WR.
                 -  Flip hips square to the LOS & stay 8 yards over the top of any vertical threat reacting to the route.
Man Coverage Rules 
Man Rules:  Align in a parallel stance and we will use a step Back & Jab with our inside foot & inside hand. Eyes start at belt buckle!
         -eyes move to stay locked on man's inside hip with inside arm at inside hip or "In Phase",  in short and intermediate zones (0-12 yd’s),
         - eyes will climb in deep zone (12+ yd’s) to inside shoulder pad tip staying "In Phase!"
         - lock on eyes until he has confirmed with his eyes and hands that he is about to catch the ball then try to rip ball from WR's hands.
         - Look for ball only if you have your man "In Phase and able to pick his pocket - then wedge man toward sideline.
