LB Scrape Spill Tackle Drill - The scrape spill drill integrates movement skills, block destruction, and tackling into a single exercise. - Linebackers should maintain a downhill path with square shoulders while staying tight to the double team pole. - Proper hand placement for the spill technique requires one hand on the blocker's sternum and the other on the outside of the shoulder pad. - Players must plant their outside foot in the ground to quickly redirect and get back vertical toward the ball carrier. - Coaches should emphasize keeping the eyes up during contact to ensure players see what they are hitting rather than ducking their heads. - The ultimate goal of the drill is to avoid going one-for-one by being violent enough to shed the pulling blocker and make the tackle.

LB Search & Destroy Drill - The search and destroy drill is highly effective for linebackers when actions inside the box are cloudy or unclear. - Coaches can choose to have players either shuffle or use a crossover step to move from their starting point to the cone. - A primary emphasis of the drill is to ensure the linebacker keeps their shoulders, hips, and feet square once they reach the cone. - Linebackers must avoid crossing over their feet when making contact with the ball carrier. - The drill should be executed at a thud tempo during the teaching phase so both the linebacker and the ball carrier can feel the movement, with the ball carrier waiting to make a decision until the linebacker reaches the cone. - The drill is excellent for young linebackers to learn how to match the path of the running back and track where he is going, rather than just running blindly through gaps.

Defensive Tracking Drills - Tracking drills begin with a simple block destruction where defenders work over the top. - Players must consistently gain ground by working downhill toward the ball carrier instead of shuffling too far away. - Effective tracking requires maintaining a hunkered or tilted body position with a forward lean while staying on the balls of the feet. - Defenders should stay square to the man they are tracking rather than staying square to the line of scrimmage. - The primary focus for defenders is to track the ball carrier's near hip to properly position themselves for potential cutbacks. - To finish the drill, players must explode through contact, ending with their near foot up and tagging the ball carrier's near knee.

LB Run Fits Drill The video outlines a linebacker drill designed to help players adjust their run fits based on the movement of defensive linemen. Key learning points include: - Dynamic Gap Fitting: Linebackers must be prepared to "make it right" rather than just fitting a pre-assigned gap if the defensive front is compromised. - Drill Setup: The drill utilizes a defensive lineman (represented by a coach with a bag) and a running back to simulate real-game scenarios. - Reacting to Defensive Line Movement: The linebacker must observe where the defensive lineman's head goes, such as a 3-technique getting knocked into an A-gap or a 2-eye getting reached or pushed into a B-gap. - Responding to Ball Carrier Cuts: Linebackers must mirror the running back’s cut and then "thud" him up to finish the tackle. - Redirecting and Filling: Players must practice redirecting their momentum; for example, if a linebacker expects to fill the B-gap but finds it occupied by a teammate, they must quickly jump cut or redirect to fill the new open gap. - Downhill Aggression: The goal of the drill is to train linebackers to see the opening and get downhill quickly to fill the vacant gap.

WR Secondary Release Drill - Release drills should be treated as everyday drills that are performed at least twice a week with wide receivers and defensive backs. - Coaches should set up drills in the boundary area to simulate a lack of space, using a cone placed approximately six yards downfield. - The primary objective of any release is to be both fast and physical when getting off the line of scrimmage. - Wide receivers must wait to make their move until they have closed the cushion and are right on the defensive back's toes. - Executing a move too early allows the defender time and ground to recover, even if they initially lean or rock in the wrong direction. - After the release, receivers must focus on getting their chest out of the way, using physical hand techniques to stack the defender and return to their line as quickly as possible.
