Cover 7 Coverage Coaching Breakdown By Nick Saban

Here is a video of football coaching guru Nick Saban breaking down his cover 7 coverage. Nick Saban is long known as a defensive guru and we can see that demonstrated here in his film study breakdown when he was still coaching the Miami Dolphins. Cover 7 is a variation of Man Coverage that practically means that the Defensive Back must lock in on a wide receiver no matter where he goes on the football field. In order to run cover 7 coverage you need to have very capable cornerbacks, free safeties and strong safeties to be able to execute the coverage flawlessly. Your defensive backs must have the ability to understand the scheme the offense is running against them and adjust accordingly.
