On Inside Zone, we use simple covered/uncovered rules that carry over against multiple defensive fronts. No need to make it more complicated than it has to be. Part 1 of our Inside Zone clinic is in the Vault. Part 2 will be out next week.

How do you teach Inside Zone? We're starting a 4 part Inside Zone clinic in our weekly Office Hour series. Part 1 is now in the GameDay Systems Vault. I break down our covered/uncovered rules, how we identify blocking responsibilities, and examples against even and odd fronts. Next week: Our calls and footwork against different fronts. Just real coaching. How we teach it.

Every football program should evaluate more than its win-loss record. What worked? What didn’t? Where did we improve? What needs to change before next season?

Good offensive line play starts with understanding how to block individually. Great offensive line play happens when five guys learn to work together. HOW WE TEACH TWO-MAN RUN BLOCKS.
