We are joined for our in-season defensive focused series “Defense with DC” by the defensive coordinator of the USFL Michigan Panthers, Dan Carrel. After making his way through the ranks as an inter, GA, and position coach, Dan broke into the professional ranks with the Panthers.
This week we focus on transitioning from camp into the season and removing the unknowns of early season by providing and practicing routines.
-Transition from camp to season
-Starting school
-Making a smooth transition into game one- a small case study
-Rehearsing routines
-Making substitution
- the travel party
-Sideline operations and headset operations
-Transitioning units
-Providing the “knowns” and consistency
-Getting off to a great start
-Landmarks on the field
-Facing the unknowns
-When you don’t know
-Making calls that are game ready
-More games are lost than won
-Get after the QB early in the season
-Defending the option
-Devoting enough time to defend option
