It's hard to describe how impressive of a play this is by Makuba. The Chiefs are running a makeshift mesh combining their Bootstrap concept with Rash (@ Rub) backside. Normally Makuba would have help leveraging the shallow from Baun in a Lurk coverage, but because Mahomes had taken off when he saw man coverage before, Baun is essentially spying and not worrying about cutting off any routes underneath. Makuba has to go over the traffic, then back down to finish the play on first contact behind the line to force the 4th down. This was his best play, in my opinion.

Look at the route distribution to the boundary and how they're just compressing the space of the 3 routes using 4 defenders playing with perfect depth and leverage maintenance. This is the essence of a Vic Fangio split safety coverage — play 4-over-3 to the side #3 releases to, distribute the dirty bunch using zone principles to keep all the routes caged in and just suffocate the concept.

The Eagles certainly loved their marine concepts on Drive #4. 3 different variations — Fish (Guppie), Bass, and Ocean — of the same inside-out LB squeeze read, all work about as well as you’d expect. I have my own diagrams of these with the reads laid out for Covers 1-5, FZ, and 3x1 concepts but can’t get them to load.

One of the prettiest walk-off TDs you’ll ever see. Deep Post off of inside zone action and the CB has no help at all deep. Perfect call by Johnson, better execution by Williams and Moore.

I’m biased, but I would’ve killed for something like this when I was trying to learn offensive intent or putting together my own system. The 2019 Eagles material is invaluable for that. Highly recommended to anyone in the drive.

The more I watch the film, the more I actually feel bad for Drake Maye. This is sending your kid into a gun fight with a slingshot. Seattle re-invests their coverage resources mid-snap maybe better than anyone I’ve seen, so they basically end up 6-over-3 in coverage with the backside Safety & CB both getting involved.

I just added some new stuff to the private drive that I think is cool. The video shows my coverage tools folder with new coverage resources I just uploaded.

Cooper DeJean is already one of the best defenders in the league. He’s incredible.

Some classic Jim Johnson coverage cutups of Houston (3 Cloud) and Vegas (Quarter-Quarter-Inverted Half).

I could watch Joe Burrow snaps against Cover 2/6 all day. He just lets the Mike push strong with #3 and works the backside Curl area on Basics & Basic Crosses all day long. Or he'll just climb up or escape and pick apart the broken zone structure as he approaches the LOS. It's really beautiful.

This is the type of snap from Mukuba that I love. The safeties sell a Cover 2 drop pre-snap on the clap, so common sense would lead one to believe that the QB is going to take the best leverage, which would be to the bottom. Mukuba is actually just robbing here, and he triggers on the Slant the millisecond after he reads the QB plant to throw. It's really exquisite key reading that's all over his film. Quite frankly, it's hard to be a competent safety without it, but he's excellent. It allows him to always have advantageous depth & leverage on routes. Some snaps it just looks like whatever happens was inevitable because it's such split-second reacting on both sides, but this is actually a series of very brief decisions that led to this result. Those decisions are the difference in success.

This is still in its infancy, but some have suggested organizing diagrams into the drive into a coverage beaters resource and that's very doable. These are just the ones I specified within the diagrams. I'll end up making new ones specifically for it eventually.

This is a really cool look into the process of a route runner both before and after the snap. Kelce is probably the best at this in the league right now. I included diagrams of the specific coverage concepts he’s talking about here as well.
