How does Wink get free rushers?

Really good breakdown from Bobby Skinner how Wink gets free rushers even if the Panthers enough guys in to block.

Good stuff. I really like this style D.

I miss the old scheme

of bringing extra players in on the blitz but somehow having less rushers.

Very interesting.

I was thinking about this exact concept earlier today. How are blitzes schemed and called in order to have blitzers get home? Similarly, how does one measure the effectiveness of blitzes?

If it was that easy to generate pressure, every coordinator in the league would do it, so obviously, it has to be a schematic approach.

Also think it’s safe to say

He wasn’t the issue in Baltimore…wooof

I think one way is cause confusion pre snap

And another is don’t play to the same tendencies. Change it up adding to the confusion,

I’d say “play shitty offenses”

What I love about the Wink defense

Breeze_94 : 9/20/2022 12:26 am : link

is that its positionless football on passing downs, besides the Boundary Corners and single high safety. The offense never knows who is coming- so they have to guess where they take their pass sets.

When the LT was expecting Ximines to rush, but Ximines drops, by the time he realizes this the quick safety (Love) is already past him.

Here is line from an article

Martindale uses twists, simulated pressures, overload blitzes, Cover-0, Double A-Gap, and more.
Just giving you a starting point or idea. More to it than that tho.
