FBCP Episode 196 – Defending Trips Formations

This week’s winner on our Twitter poll @footballinfo was Defending Trips Formations. We look at multiple ways to defend 3 by 1 formations no matter what defense you’re running.

In any game plan, you’ll need 3 ways to defend Trips Formations. I’ll give you plenty to think about.

As with any other defensive plan, it starts with deciding what the offense is using that formation for. What’s their purpose?

Then you’ve got to make some decisions. Man or Zone? Or a combination coverage?

6 man box, or 7 man box? Or 5 man box when they’re really trying to sling it all over the place?

In this episode I also mention that special gift, my 3 Video Series on Coaching Football’s 4-2-5 Defense that you can get access to right now at http://425defense.com/podcast
