Defensive line

Left (Balbuzard): Defensive line

The defensive line consists normally three to six players depending the defensive formation. To be a d-line (defensive line), you need to be muscular, tall and fast because you must tackle the quarterback before he pass the ball. If it's a run, the d-line must also tackle the running back by knocking or pulling him down. A d-line must have a good concentration because he mustn't move before the snap of the offensive center because he will create an offside. This is not good for his team because he loses yards.
