In American football , coverage shells describe the alignment and responsibilities of defensive back s. In passing situations, the defense will assign players to guard portions of the field, forming a defensive shell that the defense hopes will either prevent the offense from completing a pass or ensure a defensive player is able to tackle the receiver after a completed pass. The general terminology used to describe this alignment is Cover , with being the number of defensive players forming the coverage shell. Cover 0 Cover 0 is a strict man to man defense man to man alignment where each defensive back covers one receiver. Advantages Cover 0 is an aggressive scheme that allows for numerous blitz packages, as it s easier for players to drop off their coverage and rush the quarterback. Disadvantages The main disadvantage of Cover 0 is that there is no help over the top if a wide receiver beats runs past his defender, there is no one left in the backfield who can make up the coverage on the receiver, which could result in an easy pass completion and possible touchdown. Cover 1 Cover One is a man to man coverage for all the defensive backs except for one player usually a Safety American football position safety who is not assigned a man to cover but rather plays deep and reacts to the development of the play.
