Overview

The Man To Man tag identifies defensive formations, sets, and plays built on man coverage, where each defender locks onto an assigned receiver instead of passing routes off in zone, ranging from Cover 2 Man and Double Bracket calls to pressure looks like Olb Fire Man and Bracket Switch Willie. It spans 13 formations, including Nickel, Dime, Dollar, 4-3, 46, and Goal Line Defense, plus 50 sets and 83 plays, so you can quickly pull every man look available in your playbook. Use this tag to build a man-heavy game plan, find bracket and robber variations that take away an opponent's top target, and pair press coverage with blitzes to shut down quick zone beaters and force low-percentage throws.
