Cover 3

The Cover 3 tag identifies every defensive play built on a three-deep, four-under zone shell, spanning 408 plays across 13 formations like Dime, Nickel, 4-3, and 46 and 74 sets including Under, Over G, Bear, and 2-4 Dbl Mug. It groups base calls like Cover 3 Sky and Cover 3 Match alongside zone pressures such as Cross 3 Fire, Corner Blitz 3, and Hot Blitz 3, so you can see every way a formation rotates into single-high thirds with curl-flat and hook defenders underneath. Filter by this tag to build a scheme-consistent defensive rotation, pair match coverage against Four Verticals and flood concepts, and find fire zone blitzes that keep three deep defenders behind the pressure.
