Hey there,
I've been reading steeleraddicts for quite some time now so i thought i might as well as this here.
anyway...i'm from germany and i have been following the nfl for like 2 years now and i'm finally starting to understand all the different formations and stuff...you see since football is like one of the most unpopular sports in germany so you dont really know anything concerning tactics and formations...
so here is my question...is there any god webside or youtube video or a movie in general that really explains different tactics and formations...at a, lets say, beginner to advance level...the only once i can find are either like "football is a game played with 11 players on each side" - stuff or its a 30 min movie about one particular play...
I was hoping for something like a video of a certain formation in a game and then the play stops and someone explains why this is a good run / pass defense and whats so special about it...same goes for the offensive side...or maybe like a video explaining a play from the view of a runningback and why he choose to cut it back and not shoot the gap...
maybe something like the chalk talk they do on steelers.com but maybe with the focus a bit more towards general tactics instead of one certain play...
and since i am from germany i highly appriciate a movie or clip or video with picture material because its way easier for me to understand when i see what they are talking about then when there are just X's and O's once every page and the rest is just text...
however i hope somebody can help me out because next year i want to understand what "cover 1 (cover 2, cover 0 or whatever is) and not just wanna watch the steelers (as entertaining as it is)
greeting,
