Cover 6

The Cover 6 tag identifies every quarter-quarter-half split field coverage call, where one side of the field plays Cover 4 quarters and the other plays Cover 2 with a hard flat defender and a deep half safety. It spans 58 plays across 38 sets in 8 formations, including Dollar, 4-3, Nickel, Dime, 4-2-5, Big Nickel, 3-4, and 3-3-5, and covers variations like Cover 6 Press, Cover 6 Trap, Cover 6 Invert, and Cover 6 Willie. Use this filter to find the Cover 6 looks that fit your base personnel, so you can pair quarters help against a trips or strong-side threat with Cover 2 flat protection on the boundary without reaching into Cover 3 or pure Cover 4.
