Defensive Line get off 3 before 2

Defense lineman pride themselves on great getoffs. The getoff is the 1st step in developing great DL players. We begin with our stance we call "Rip Charge".
STANCE: "RIP CHARGE"
1.  Covered hand down, covered foot back staggered.
2.  Stagger - covered toe to heal of uncovered foot or slightly further back.
3.  60% of weight on covered down hand, 40% of weight on feet with a 80/20 split of the weight. 80% of the weight on uncovered foot.
4.  Tail is slightly higher than head & off hand is ready as a weapon.
GETOFF: "3 before 2"
1.  1st step is a short power step, not over reached. Objective is to pick up covered
(staggered foot) foot and get it back on the ground as quick as possible.
2.  Second step comes from uncovered foot gaining ground ahead of covered foot. Hands are locked and loaded in the strike position on the second step.
3.  Third step we come to balance with the covered foot slightly ahead of uncovered foot and at midline of OL player.
4.  On the 3rd step we MUST deliver our strike to the OL player at the V of the neck with covered hand and with uncovered hand contact made on the outside shoulder pad tip.
5. Our objective is to get that 3rd foot on the ground and deliver a STRIKE before the OL player gets his 2nd foot on the ground.
*This is our Getoff progression and part of our EDDs.
"Building a foundation one brick at a time."

Johnny Manziel vs Russell Wilson

Russell Wilson is a fantastic football player. He may be an even better human being. He is not the prototype NFL QB relating to size. He is mobile, athletic and to many the next wave of NFL QBs. Will Wilson help Manziel with his draft status? Manziel is not Russell Wilson. Barry Switzer said it best: Manziel is arrogant, spoiled and has embarressed his team and coaches. Jaworski has said it best. Manziel does not possess the mechanics, read progression or discipline at this point to be a franchise NFL QB. In short Manziel is not Russell Wilson. Wilson was a 3rd round pick. Manziel will be fortunate to duplicate Wilsons draft slot.

LB Play - 3 - 2 Inside LB Play Talbot Defense

Inside Linebacker play in our cover 3 match. Our MLB will be a 3-2 player in our cover 3 match.   The MLB will play gap responsibility playing run 1st. Once the QB has cleared the depth of the RB(#3), and there is no run threat, the MLB will then adjust his drop to the release of #3.  1st job is to identify #3 and alert the outside linebacker to a possible "push" call.   #3 - inside release: MLB will drop on top of #3 maintaining a top down inside hip leverage. His eyes will move from the QBs upfield shoulder to proper leverage  of  #3. #3 - outside release to flat: MLB will make "push" call to alert the outside linebacker to come off his reroute of #2 and expand to flat looking for #3 to flat. MLB will then push to #2s release carrying vertical to top of his zone (12 yards). MLB will wall #2 (keep inside leverage) on #2 and ping-pong his head and eyes back to QB to identify QBs upfield shoulder & elbow. *Communication is vit...
