Linebacker Play Series
To wrap up the series on LB Fundamentals and LB play, here are the articles we finished. Feel free to ask questions about any here. They are meant to be read in roughly this order so that we can build on one after another.
LB Fundamentals: Hit & Shed, and forming the Base to take on blockers
LB Fundamentals: Pursuit
LB Fundamentals: Tackling
LB Fundamentals: Man/Man Coverage
LB Fundamentals: Zone Coverage but you should also read the articles on Pattern Reading: Cover 2 and Cover 3 so it'll all make sense.
LB Play: What is a "key" and what are they watching pre-snap?
LB Play: Alignment and Gap Assignments
LB Play: Reading OLine blockers
LB Play: Reading the RB Key
Playing MLB in the Over or Even fronts

I would also suggest the running back (pick at the top of the article) put his mouthpiece in. Not good to have chicklets missing from your grill after a big hit.

Really enjoyed these
DIdn’t even realize how much I didn’t know. If you came out with a similar series on any of the other position groups, I would absolutely read them. Thanks for taking the time to do this.
