Brian Smith - Defending RPO`s Out of 3 Down Front

Description

Learn how to defend RPO-heavy offenses with confidence using a multiple, disguise-driven defensive system.

In this course, you’ll get a complete breakdown of defending RPOs out of a three-down “Venom” personnel package (5+ DBs), including how to create tight windows in man coverage (Stack Crown 1) and eliminate easy reads for the quarterback.

You’ll also learn how to build a powerful disguise package using Stack Red and Stack Blood (Buzz) coverages, teaching your defense how to show one look pre-snap and rotate post-snap to confuse and slow down RPO decisions.

Take away quick throws, disrupt the quarterback’s read, and build a defense that can adjust, disguise, and dominate against RPO offenses. Book the course now!
