3-3 Stack Stropping the Run

3-3 Stack Fronts and Multiple Blitzes

By John Grayson

The 3-3 Stack defense gives you answers against today’s spread offenses, tempo attacks, and option football — without sacrificing pressure or simplicity.

In this course, Coach John Grayson breaks down how to structure your 3-3 Stack fronts and build multiple blitz packages that attack protections, disrupt run schemes, and confuse quarterbacks. You’ll learn how to align, adjust, and apply pressure while maintaining sound run fits and option responsibilities.

Coach Grayson walks through:

• The structure and philosophy behind the base 3-3 Stack fronts

• How to install and teach the Tight Front variation

• Detailed instruction on defending the option, including dive responsibility and linebacker fits

• Game film breakdowns showing fronts and pressures in live action

• Practical teaching points you can take straight to practice

Through whiteboard explanations and game clips, you’ll see how to keep your defense aggressive, flexible, and assignment-sound — all while creating negative plays with calculated pressure.

If you’re looking for a system that combines simplicity for your players with complexity for opposing offenses, this course gives you a complete blueprint for building and blitzing out of the 3-3 Stack.
