Set two corners in your defense secondary 7 yards off the line of scrimmage and opposite any receivers, usually the split end and flanker. Leave a free safety 9 to 12 yards behind the line of scrimmage, between the center linebackers. This is a bad defense against a power-off tackle play. With a scattered defensive line, it is easier for the offense to double-team and overpower. Don't let the linebackers get fooled by false runs, which will draw them to the sides and away from their primary job of protecting a break through the line.
