LB Blitz

10 Formations53 Sets92 Plays

Overview

The LB Blitz tag identifies every defensive call that sends a linebacker as an extra rusher, spanning 92 plays across 10 formations and 53 sets from Nickel and Dollar sub packages to 46, 3-4, and 4-4 base looks. These are your Mike, Will, Sam, and Olb pressures, often paired with Cover 1, Cover 0, or Cover 3 shells, and they include Single Mug and Dbl Mug alignments where the linebackers walk up over the A gaps pre-snap. Filtering by this tag lets you build a pressure package fast, whether you want a heat call to pair with a matching coverage shell or a base blitz you can rework with pinch, spread, and slant pre-snap adjustments.
