As a coach of 25+ years of WR/DB's I am so happy to hear REAL deep fundamental and in-depth technique rules and comments! Thank you for not having bs hype crap and talking REAL coaching and techniques. I always tell my dbs that man is the easiest concept to explain the hardest to learn. I call 'opening the gate' mistake part of 'oh shit' coverage #3. First two parts of Oh Shit coverage are stopping the feet and grabbing for a hold because you know you messed up. Looking is hoping the qb didn't see you mess up.
My issue is with the eyes. I focus on the hips but then a look up and boom they’re doing a move and I’m lost. This video really woke me up thank you so much and I hope to improve this season
What gets me beat the most is honestly my speed. My coverage and eyes are pretty good but if I ever allow any distance between me and the receiver I am done for. Trying to work on my speed currently cause these Florida boys fast ash
LOL, well that's a good way to go. Speed does help but in the absence of speed, sound technique and the use or proper angles + having an IQ can make you a playmaker.
My issue isn’t I look at the quarterback too soon, it’s that I don’t look at all or I look too late so I just get head topped, I’m always scared that if I look at the quarterback then the WR can just double move and I’ll be lost.
Double move routes are run less often than single move routes. So your chances are better of looking back for the ball than not. Second, when you look for the ball, put a hand on the receiver, that will allow you to know where he is. If he moves off of that hand while you're looking for the ball then you know he has executed a double move so get your eyes back to him.
Honestly don’t look at the Qb at all unless it’s a deep fade. Man coverage usually comes with a blitz so it’s more important to throw off their timing. But zone coverage is for the picks man coverage is just for a shutdown unless you’re in the receivers hip
I don’t really look at the QB like that fr either. I just keep my eyes on the WR hips until the ball is in the air. After that idc about the receiver anymore I turn into a WR after that. 🤷🏾♂️
Probably eye discipline after the break, I played pretty lockdown last year, I didn't allow any catches in man coverage, had a few pbus and ints, but some of that is overthrowing a receiver when I bit on a double move. Definitely going to focus on eye discipline, and playing through the receiver's hands more instead of going for big plays---I'm already pretty physical, but could do better. Love the videos! I've learned a lot this off-season, hoping to come back even better, thanks for the tips 💪💪💪
Yes, eye discipline is hard to train because you can't see your eyes lol. However, you must make it a focus in your training. Fixing your eyes solves a lot of other problems.
@@greer2402I would agree that a cb should focus solely on the receiver they’re assigned to, no matter what. I think a cb focusing solely on the specific 1 on 1 receiver they’re assigned to can create a sense of tunnel vision thus making it difficult to be aware of everyone else on the field. But imo that’s what the other 10 guys on the field are for as far as who they’re specifically supposed to focus on.
Thank you I don’t know the hell my coach tought me but he said look at the eyes and I always get burn and look at the receiver eyes cuz coach said so. Now i know my coach doesnt know anything and you look at the hips and only look at the ball when the see the receiver looking and you have a hand on them
Always look at the hips, and if that’s not your strong suite then look at the WR’s number. His eyes can lie to you but that number won’t. It’ll be with him wherever he goes.
@GridironStuds / All Eyes DB Camp - Chad Wilson I know with my son he does it due to speedster and lack of speed. Most good receiver's use a speed release not wanting DB'S to get hands on!
@@cliftonbrown5894 yes, that is usually the reason for doing this however it is counterproductive. Opening right away turns the route into a track meet and gives the receiver more room to use that speed. I do understand what happens mentally though. They want to get into a running position sooner so they don't get beat but it actually works against them.
My biggest problem is giving up on the play when i think i won and the wr catches the ball also double move releases get me alot and i slide like im on ice
My issue is when I see a wr break once I immediately look at the QB and when its a double move, I lose the rep. Also anticipating breaks and routes the receiver is running.
I see many cb’s looking back at the qb, even at the pro level. Sometimes it can lead to crazy flashy interceptions. But back in high school when I played ball I remember trying to implement that same strategy in practice and I’d get smoked by receivers. Eventually I decided to just focus on the receiver I was assigned to and no one else. It resulted in more incomplete passes for me against the offense.
Pi that’s all there is to it pass interference I’ll push them a little too early and it sucks mind you in my free time I do play defensive end undersized and I’m trying to get into the safety position or linebacker
I had a similar question from a listener to my podcast. I answered it in my latest podcast episode. ua-cam.com/video/AW552M8ZP5U/v-deo.htmlsi=rjZR6C_JHZul5vvl
Yes, I understand that train of thought but it's going to get you in trouble. Opening the gate allows the receiver to run his route uninterrupted and leaves too much space to run his route. On top of that, it allows him to get speed immediately off of the line of scrimmage thus preserving his timing with the QB. Learn a kick slide and perfect it. Combine that with your speed and you will be difficult to beat.
God is good
Amen to that
All the time
Amen 🙏
Amen

@@GridironStuds I also issue with playing through the receivers hands, he’ll catch it but I try to knock it out of his hands but he holds onto it.

Soon as he makes his cut you should be looking at the qb bc he's already done his route so you know where he's goin
Hey thank u I have been changing positions a lot and I’m either going with wide receiver or , DB
Come to the dark side 😈

Watch more videos about double moves when they come how they come and how teams use them
My issues is the shifty eyes and looking at the qb out the break I feel this is going to be a game changer
Man I hope it is for you!
Opening the gate 🤲🏾
Shifting in the eyes
Mine is definitely the looking at the qb, either i look to early and lose the receiver or,i don't look at all and have no idea when the ball is coming
I suggest you watch more film to get a ready of how routes work. That would tell you when to look
Why would you need to look at the qb. Your eyes should be on the receiver

@@Huntman1103I stay wit the hips or number
thank you alot coach🙏
Thanks
Opening up is my biggest problem definitely in game day
Opening the gate!
Probably the most common one

Shifty eyes
My biggest problem is giving up on the play when i think i won and the wr catches the ball also double move releases get me alot and i slide like im on ice
Same with the first one I always think I won and they end up up with it
Very helpful thankyou
You're welcome

Opening the gate
The thing I see is depending on the man behind you to stop the play if you get burnt instead of stopping it yourself
Opening the gate.
Opening gate
My number 1 issue is not taking advantage of using my hands and hand placement.
My problem is I dont know when to put hands on the wr and how to
Pi that’s all there is to it pass interference I’ll push them a little too early and it sucks mind you in my free time I do play defensive end undersized and I’m trying to get into the safety position or linebacker
Work on your feet more so you can trust them more over your hands where you could rack up penalties
My problem is that I can run with the guys but on the line of scrimmage I’m always missing a jam or a receiver wins a release
Check your eyes and how far you are aligned off of the receivers in press
My biggest problem is my height and getting beat on routes
I would say shifty eyes
common problem
Mine is probably looking at the Quarterback
EYE DISCIPLINE FOR SURE
It's tough thing master
I have shifty eyes and let the WR's moves freeze me and stack on me
Mine biggest weakness is opening gate
I had a similar question from a listener to my podcast. I answered it in my latest podcast episode. ua-cam.com/video/AW552M8ZP5U/v-deo.htmlsi=rjZR6C_JHZul5vvl
Eyes
Sometimes I hesitate
Opening gate, i open way to early
My problem is looking at the qb then i get BURNED
If you can’t press, don’t, life will be easier man or zone
Noted, my problem is that I look at the QB when I shouldn't
The game isn't what used to be
Opening the gate. fr I wanna intercept the ball so I thought it would give me a head start on the receiver cuz I believe im too fast for anybody
Yes, I understand that train of thought but it's going to get you in trouble. Opening the gate allows the receiver to run his route uninterrupted and leaves too much space to run his route.
