Mike-Creeper-Vern Dime Defense

Coach Pat Fox from Pontiac Notre Dame Prep High School explains a defensive formation that combines four-man pressure with his total pass coverage.

Now, at a dime, Mike Creeper. What does that mean?

I'm going to bring my Mike and I'm going to put them on the line. I want to make it look like what? I want to make it look like Mike Blade or something like that. And I'm going to walk my backer into the hole, and I'm going to keep them there until the snap. I'm going to have my dime show the overload and line up next to him.

I'm going to run creeper. I'm going to run Vern. I'm going to play cover two over 10. I'm going to man here. I'm going to rob here. And then on the snap, I'm going to pull my backer out, and I'm going to have a four man pressure. I'm going to have a four-man pressure with my best coverage, and it's going to look like it's an overload, and the ball's going to come out fast.
