Line Slant

8 Formations14 Sets17 Plays

Overview

The Line Slant tag identifies defensive plays where the front angles its rush one direction at the snap, with linemen crashing into adjacent gaps to wreck run-blocking schemes and create free rushers off the edge. It spans 8 formations including Dollar, 4-3, 46, Nickel, Big Nickel and 3-4, covering 14 sets like Under, Bear, Over Walk and 2-3-6 Sam, and 17 plays such as Cover 1 Slant Crash, Str Eagle Slant 3, Buck Slant 3 and Slant Weak. Use this filter to find built-in slant pressure that pairs with your coverage shell, so you can stop outside zone and stretch runs, disguise pressure without extra blitzers, and set up user-controlled defenders to play the vacated gap.
