WING-T SCHEME

• Base
• Tight
• Bash
• X
• Bear
• Special
• DE to TE side plays loop scheme in Base
  Eyes on TE while in stance and attack him (TE)
  with eyes in C gap. This will keep TE from
  getting to LB and allows the DE to play a big
  factor in stopping off tackle plays (belly-g,
  buck sweep and trap (if it bounces).
