About this video
Ron Lynn coached college and professional football for over 40 years as a defensive specialist, and this session is his blitz library: man and zone pressures plus the stunts, slants and scoops that dress them up. Every package is taught with alignment, technique and responsibility for each defender against run to, run away and pass, so a coordinator can add pressure without leaving a hole behind it.
