Football 101: Cover 3

Cover 3 is a zone defense with corners and safeties protecting the deep thirds of the field. Each sideline is covered by the corners and the middle of the field by the safety. That leaves four defenders to cover the underneath zones. Cover 3 allows the defense to keep defenders in the box for the run game while continuing to cover deep and prevent the big play.

What's the difference between a 3buzz and a 33buzz?

[@WeeklySpiral]

The coverage is the same. Usually 33 just means a Nickel corner is in for the Will linebacker
