X's and O's - Double Eagle Flex

[Sweetwyne]

I have a bit of an idea about the Flex defense that was orginated by Dick Tomey at Arizona. THere it was called the Desert Swarm. I am a little unsure about the actual formation of the Flex. I understand that it puts the cornerbacks in a lot of one on one coverage. I think that it puts much of the playmaking ability on the linebackers. I am not very sure about much more.



Somebody help me out here!!!!!!!!

I found a great explanation/breakdown on the flex defense on the following link. This was just after we learned who Hauck's assistants would be. If the topics not listed someone on the site should be able to provide info.
