With not enough dudes particularly gap, how do we handle gap? One of the main ways I do it is playing torch. Torch. Torch torche I got this from blitz ology. So this is this is all blitz ology. Okay? Some people call it a gate stunt. So let's say I'm getting 11 personnel. Okay? And I know I'm getting a lot of power counter could be why off could be why on. Okay, I'm going to torch it. Okay. What's a torch? It's a retwist by the Center on the center by the nose in the tackle. So let's say we're playing our bracket over here, or let's say we're playing special over here, because it's three receivers. Okay, let's say we're playing hammer over here. Okay, so we're going to retwist it. So if we get the center's face, you're going to bang on the center, and then you're going to wrap. If you get the center's ask, you're going to take his ass. So when you get counter like this, I'm going to add the tackle to that side, who's going to cut who's going to cut the gaps off. The nose cuts both a gaps off, he raps he ends up taking the B gap space. I don't have enough guys in the box to defend this. I got six they got seven. Really they got eight gaps because they have the quarterback. I shouldn't be able to defend this. But I can because I've just added a gap. When they want to run counter, bang, bang. I can be plus one again, because the nose is going to cut the play off. So it can't get back side here. Does that make sense? So my mic can play fast. This is how I play counter GT. If I'm playing counter GT, and I'm playing one Hi defense, my number one way of handling is to play torch. Yes, sir. So I'm getting countered gt a lot. I read the center center goes away, bang, I tape his ass center comes at me, I hit him across his face, I get plus one I can get back to even on the stunt. He's gonna go to there, he's gonna go to there. Bang, bang. Doesn't matter how it blocks out, he could go all the way back. So he goes all the way back he tries to wrap it, I'm plus one with the defensive tackle. Either way, you slice it and dice it. I'll run a repop stunt. This is another way I handle it. So again, could be zone could be gap run game. Let's say we're getting what's there again, we're playing week side rotation coverage. But we want to make it to the B gap bubble is closed. When we want them to spill the ball to we're going to close it because what teams like offenses get smart. So what they say is look if the if the B gap is open, and I'm a tackle I'm going to step hard with my inside foot and I'm going to fan you because I know he's going to be a big gap player. Like they're not stupid. They coach too. So I need to find ways to hide the bubble.
