Similar to the defensive line, the linebackers in a defense all have single gap responsibilities against running plays. The Mike linebacker will line up directly behind the nose tackle or shaded over either one of his shoulders. The Will, or weak-side linebacker, will line up on the side of the center opposite the tight end. The Sam, or strong-side linebacker, will line up on the same side of the tight end, and his responsibility will be C gap on that side of the field.
If it is a running play, their responsibility will be to rush toward the line of scrimmage to stop the ball carrier, primarily through those gaps just mentioned. On passing plays, the defensive coach will either call a man-to-man coverage scheme or a zone coverage scheme. If it is man-to-man, then each linebacker must pick up the player he is responsible for covering.
The Mike will most often be responsible for the running back, the Sam for the tight end, and the Will for help on a wide receiver or the other running back, if there are two in the backfield. If a zone coverage is called, then the linebackers will split the field in thirds from sideline to sideline.
Each linebacker in a zone coverage out of a formation will be responsible for covering any offensive receiver who enters his zone of the field. Two cornerbacks, a free safety and a strong safety will be on the field at all times in a defense. The two cornerbacks will line up over the wide receivers, the free safety lining up deep over the Will, and the strong safety lining up deep over the Sam or defensive end on that side of the field.
On certain blitz or run-heavy packages, either the free safety or strong safety might also line up much closer to the line of scrimmage. Both safeties will approach the line of scrimmage as quickly as possible and shed whatever blocker comes his way. Like linebackers, the secondary will have different responsibilities on pass plays depending on whether a man-to-man or zone coverage is called.
The strong safety might have coverage responsibility of the tight end or a second running back out of the backfield. The free safety will have responsibility over either a second running back or a third wide receiver.
In a Cover 4 zone coverage, for example, all four players in the secondary will drop deep into coverage and split the field in fours from sideline to sideline. What makes it so great is the fact that it can be used with inexperienced players, or it can be used with a lot of wrinkles and adaptations for experienced players.
The defense is extremely effective against both a running play and a passing play, giving defensive coaches even more flexibility when calling a specific play out of the formation.
