🧠 What Does “Blown Coverage” Mean in Football?
When you hear announcers yell, “That was a blown coverage!”—what actually happened?

🧩 Definition:
A blown coverage is when a defender misses their assignment, leaving a receiver wide open. It’s usually due to confusion between defenders, miscommunication, or being out of position.

👀 How It Happens:

• A defender thinks he has help over the top—but the safety reads a different route

• A switch in coverage isn’t communicated in time

• Motion or play design tricks defenders into biting the wrong way

📊 Why It Matters:
Most huge passing plays (like 40+ yard touchdowns) result from blown coverages. Even elite defenses can crack under the right offensive disguise.

Now next time someone says, “How was that guy so open?”—you’ll know why.
