 Hey, what's up, Falcons fans, I am DJ Shockley and this is Falcons Film Review, powered by Microsoft Surface. And I'm gonna stay on the defensive side of the ball for this ball game, but we got some pressures that I wanna show you that actually got home for both sides. So let's start with the Falcons on the defensive side of the ball, bringing a Cover Zero Blitz. You hear it all the time, Cover Zero. What is exactly Cover Zero? So Cover Zero means you're gonna bring actually more guys up here than they can block. We're gonna end up blitzing six guys. And on the back end, everybody's gonna be in man coverage. Man coverage all the way across the board. You're gonna have man coverage on the back, man coverage here. So now that leaves you with six guys in a rush. One, two, three, four, five. And that last guy, this safety back here, Derun Harman. Looks like he's gonna play middle field high. It's gonna be single high. You're just gonna play man coverage. But as the ball begins to snap, look at him start to creep up. Now he starts to creep up, you got Cover Zero. Now this will force them to get the ball out quickly. You see the quarterback, he's already pointing like, okay, I see him coming. Let's be able to pick it up. Talking to this guard, trying to say which way we're gonna slide. But at the end of the day, it can't work because you have more guys than they can block. You only got five offensive linemen, verse six rushers on the backside. Now here comes the pressure and watch the ball has to come out sooner than he wants to. And watch where this ball, when he lets this ball go. He lets this ball go and he's not even ready yet. Look at him letting that ball go now. Here's the ball here. Look up here at the top. He hasn't even looked back yet. The ball's already in there because of the pressure in his face. He has to let it go early. This is a nice simulated pressure that comes off Cover Zero. And because he has to let it go from the back end, he wasn't ready to make a play on the ball. Let's watch it from the backside here. Here's the safety coming up here. They have to push, push, push. But these two guys are in the bind. The center and this guard, Grady does a good job of going vertical first, which forces this center to take him. And then you get to run home right through here and to create the pressure. Boom, see it here? Come, boom. Look, because he went vertical, he had to take him. These two guys double. He's gonna come out on him and leaves him with a free run right through the middle. And now you get the pressure and a nice job of getting to the quarterback. Nice job of simulated pressure. Nice job of AJ Twirlo on the outside playing a good tight Cover Zero coverage. Foul was able to get home and get the Saints off the field. All right, let's talk about the Saints simulated pressure as well on their side of the ball. Where they were to get pressure on Matt Ryan. Now this is an interesting pressure here. Now it looks like at the line of scrimmage here. It looks up front. It looks like you got a guy that's come off the edge here. Looks like you're gonna have a guy come off the edge here. You got two eight gap blitzers here. Two eight gap blitzers. You got two defensive liners here. So one, two, three, four, five, six. Looks similar to what the Falcons just did to bring pressure. But that's not what's gonna happen. These two guys are gonna drop off in the coverage here. They're gonna drop off. So that means you only have four guys up front to block up front with five offensive linemen. But the guy I want you to pay attention to is they're gonna run a different kind of stunt here. Usually you see the stunt, one guy comes here and then another guy will loop around and come away. But there's always a way to get one guy free. Watch this particular guy here. His only job is to knock off the guy who's blocking this guy who's gonna loop around. So the center's gonna go and he's gonna block him. He's gonna do a good job of blocking him. But this guy's only job is to knock him off. And when he knocks him off, that freeze him to come across. And I'm gonna show it to you here in live action. Boom, look at this. Look at this. Knocks him off. Now he comes off the block here. Because they do a good job of pushing the middle. And his only job is to go after the center and knock him off and boom. There comes a free runner right off the edge. And now you got pressure right in the face of the quarterback. And again, Matt has to get rid of the football before he wants to. So just a well-designed bliss to come through, get the pressure and Matt has to get rid of the football. And this is a third down call where they're able to get home. It's just a nice bliss for them. His only job, knock off the center, which knocks him off. And now he's able to get home. And those are the kind of simulated pressures that are hard to beat. They're hard to overcome. No farther to foul than just a good job of them executing it on their side to get pressure on the quarterback. Well, thank you guys for joining me all year. Long's been fun.
