Is Your Defense Getting Pushed Around?
Discover the Simple Defensive System that is Dominating the Game…
…Even if Your Players are Too Small, Too Slow, Too Inexperienced, or Completely Overmatched by Your Opponents.
- Install a complete defensive system in days, not weeks
- Defend everything from the Wing-T to the Spread without changing defenses every week
- Get player buy-in, eliminate confusion and play faster on game day
It’s no secret to you, coach. The only saying is true: “It’s not the X’s and O’s, it’s the Jimmy’s and Joe’s” that win football games. Complex schemes and confusing play calls don’t change the fact that your players are undersized, outnumbered and overmatched week after week.
But the opposite IS true. What if you had a defensive system that was so simple, even your most inexperienced players and low football IQ athletes could quickly learn it, during practice time without ever needing to study a playbook at home? A system so simple that even the newest coach could easily understand and teach with total clarity.
Everything Changes When Your Players Play Faster.
When those players understand their jobs, when they believe in themselves and buy into the system, they play the game with confidence. Confident players play faster. They fly around and swarm to the football. They show up at the point of attack with purpose. That is the AGGRESSIVE system of play every defensive coach strives to unlock. It’s not about being mean and nasty - it’s about playing with confidence.
Over the past 15 seasons, thousands of high school and youth football coaches have used my 4-2-5 Defense System to create that exact change in defenses just like yours. It started with the first edition of Coaching Football’s 4-2-5 Defense released in 2011. Since then I’ve learned much more from 15 years of experience with thousands of coaches all over the world through Joe Daniel Football and The Football Coaching Podcast. With that knowledge, the manual that changed it all has been completely updated, expanded and re-written for you to get even better results.
Total Team Transformation Starts with Your Defense.
The kind of results coaches like Brad Bradbury of Adair High School in Oklahoma saw. He took over a struggling program. After his defense was lit up early in the season he knew they needed a change. Coach Bradbury made the switch to the 4-2-5 Defense mid-season, and the team won the final three regular season games. They followed it up with an undefeated regular season the next year, and in year 3 won the State Championship. All while running the same simple defense that takes his staff about 20 minutes to install each year.
In the all new Coaching Football’s 4-2-5 Defense, 2nd Edition you will find out…
- The simple run fits system that forms the foundation of your defense, can adjust to any offensive run play from any formation - and only takes 10 minutes to install.
- A complete defensive coverage package that helps you eliminate coverage breakdowns that lead to back-breaking explosive touchdowns.
- What position you should put your best football player in this defense. This one change that goes against what almost every defensive football coach is doing could make the difference between a swiss cheese defense and a dominant force.
- The 4-step framework to eliminate confusion for players even if they have a low Football IQ, and build trust and buy-in for your coaching staff.
- How to stay with a single defensive front week in and week out even if you see Spread RPOs one week, Wing-T the next, and Single Wing or Power I the week after that. No more “Flavor of the Week” defense or complicated, confusing installs that slow your defense down.
- One single coaching philosophy that forms the backbone of your entire defense. This makes every single tough coaching decision you need to make easier for you to make and stick with all season long.
Other coaches will tell you it’s just too simple. But the proof is on the field. The proof is on film. The proof is in Brian Willoughby’s Oostburg High School (WI) defense that went from struggling to stop anyone the year before to leading their conference in defense. That team won a home playoff game for the first time in school history, too.
Get the Right Players in the Right Positions on Your Defense.
It all starts with putting your players in the right positions and giving them the right tools. In this manual I’ll share…
- The huge mistake most coaches are making that is causing your defense to lose the edge and give up explosive runs on the outside. It takes no talent and no practice time to fix this major problem!
- How to get your young linebackers playing fast, filling downhill and flowing to make sideline to sideline tackles without having to blitz them every play just to get them moving.
- The secrets to coaching your undersized defensive linemen to control the trenches against bigger, stronger opponents who have been pushing you around for years.
- The four key elements of any defense, no matter what defensive front you run. Once players understand this, they can easily switch positions when you need it - and you can run multiple-front defense without causing mass confusion.
- How to use strength calls to put your defense in the best position to shut down your opponent. And when you don’t even need to make a strength call at all.
- The ideal players for all 11 positions on the defense and who to play each position when you DON’T have the ideal players. Because the most important thing is having your BEST 11 at the top of the depth chart!
The Game Has Changed. But it Does Not
Have to Be Complicated.
The days of packing the box every week for “3 yards and a cloud of dust” are gone. You need to stop Spread offenses, Wing-T offenses, RPOs, Single Wing, Double Wing, and… sometimes you have to stop them all IN THE SAME GAME. How can a defense be simple enough for your players (who have a non-existent Football IQ) to learn and execute with confidence - but still be able to adapt to everything those evil Offensive Coordinators are throwing at you? In my 4-2-5 Defense manual you will see…
- Keys to play calling your blitzes so that you give your defense the advantage. You can stop guessing when to call your blitzes and put your players out of position to make the big play.
- The two-part process to give your cornerbacks a mental advantage to shutting down any passing route, even if they are overmatched and out-athleted by the receiver.
- A ridiculously easy way to teach your edge defenders how to read if the play is a run or pass - and never get beat on Play Action. Those Wing-T play callers will hate it when they can’t put those players “in conflict” anymore!
- The discovery one State Championship coach made that was causing 70% of all explosive plays they allowed. And the steps you can take right now to eliminate this mistake without running a single drill or installing any new play calls.
- Why it is a HUGE mistake to run a 30-front defense like the 3-4 Defense, 5-2 Defense or 3-5-3 Defense just because you “don’t have enough linemen” to run a 4-man defensive line.
- My 3-step process to create constant improvement for your athletes all season long, no matter how un-talented or inexperienced they are at the start of the season.
- How to use defensive line slants to give your front 4 an advantage without weakening the back-end of your defense by committing more players with a blitz.
- How to choose the best coverage package for your defense - and why it may be easier to shut down even the best passing attacks than you think it is!
