Man you are wrong. Why would any coach with sense line there DB up behind the LB's almost as deep as the safeties?See, I don't mind if people are gonna dog the pre-snap alignments but atleast know WTF you're talkin about.
The first play in question...
Burns HAS to be on the TE side. We're playing zone. Who do you think is covering the TE if he goes vertical? Also, what if they run toss? The problem is yall don't know the difference between zone and man. In zone, LB's match up with WR's all the time. Burn is either playing Cover-2, in which case he has the flats, or Cover-3 where he has the TE releasing vertical. The Linebacker that's lined up on the #2 is covering flats. Just cause he's got a ****in' WR across from him doesn't mean he's playing man on him. SMH
Honestly, not a single alignment (screen shot) in this thread is wrong. They're all pretty standard.
You would leave the entire field open.
God **** man, this **** is giving me a headache.
Burns is the CB. He's playing deep 1/3 or deep 1/4. It's not man defense, it's zone.
If he lines up too close to the TE then he's vulnerable to play-action pass and the TE will be wide open for a touchdown.
Where do you think he's supposed to be lined up?
You continue to talk about 1/3 coverage's. But what does that have to do with the alignment? What is even more laughable is that he is bailing and back peddling right before the start of the play..lol They are in a double tight end formation with both wide outs on the short side of the field so who is he guarding?
That play is so dumb it is comical.
It's zone. He isn't covering anyone. He is covering an area of the field.
So why would we be in a deep zone? That is a stupid play call. Nebraska does not throw the ball. So who are we guarding in a deep zone? That is the dumbest play I have witness. It makes no sense. So again we were not in the right defensive play and were lined up wrong.
