Jeff Hafley’s primary pass coverages

In part one of this series we looked at how Green Bay Packers defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley staffed his defense and where his scheme differs from former defensive coordinator Joe Barry. In part two, we looked at the base fronts of the 4-3 defense that we’re likely to see deployed by Hafley.

Today we’ll look at the primary pass coverages: cover 3 and cover 1, as well as quarters coverage, and some subpackage (nickel) fronts and pressures.

In the graph above, the gold represents Hafley’s coverage rates at Boston College in 2023 with 43% cover-1 and 27.
