'nickel', 'dime' defense: What Does It Mean?

[Fabo]

Explained it PERFECTLY. The concept is easy. Getting the players to execute their roles is where it can become confusing I bet

When would you make the switch to nickel or dime ?
Thanks for the video!

Oh, so a nickel defender is that extra DB instead of a linebacker. So when there’s two nickels on the field, they don’t call it “double nickel, ” lol

What about when you have 11 db's on the field

Love the channel, I know you are a Mississippi State guy, if you broke down all The Big Alabama games you would probably get more subscribers. Just a thought, I know I would like to see it. Roll Tide !!!

iam a nerd so bear with me using nickel makes sense but dime doesn't I know its the next denomination but its dumb.

So nickel defense = 5 defenders because a nickel is 5. Got it. But dime is 6 DB but a dime = 10. Did football people forget how to count? They do get hit in the head a lot.
