The key weakness of Cover 3 in CFB 27 is the seams — the vertical lines between the deep third defenders. Four vertical concepts attack these seams, forcing deep defenders to choose which receiver to cover. Pattern match Cover 3 addresses this by having defenders match receivers who threaten their zone vertically.
