If they line up in a cover 2, then you have linebacker matched up on your tightend and that can be good for seam and skinny post routes. The wideouts need to get outside the cornerback off the line where you can hit the fade off a 1 step drop, the saftey over the top wont have enough time to get there.

Cover 2's goal is to keep everything in front the defenders. Things in the short middle are often open. Blitzing is a bit different, it depends on where they blitz from. When a team blitzes they are often stuck in Man-Man coverages, and screens can often be very effective. Look for weaknesses in the short middle of the field, and try to establish an effective running game. Nothing brings safeties up quicker than an effective run.

it's easy. if they are blitzing, don't try play actions, you will not have enough time. audible your plays. have your running backs stay in and block for you. give your tight end a five and out route and the wide out on the tight ends side a go route. your tight end will have a one on one situation with the line backer and one of the defensive backs will be forced to commit to the wide out. throw it to either or. it will make that defense respect your passing game and calm down their blitz. then when they back off, run it.

Try to avoid passing in the middle for the most part as it virtually eliminates any escape for a big play. try to pass deep down the sideline from time to time. use a lot of screen plays for both rb's and wr's. the short passing game will beat the blitz every time.

Cover 2 can be very disruptive against many kinds of offenses. The main weak spots are vs. either deep outs or deep slants. Quick slants can also be very effective. Play action and draw plays could also be a key addition. But I would say your best bet as far as passing would be 15yard outs which are very effective, that is if you have the arm strength.

pass the ball, and if u see an opening scramble the ball and dont hesitate. i played a defense like thatin high school and had my best game ever. so just scramble alot to keep the blitzs off and u will have a gr8 game. GO PACK!!!

in 4-3 cover 2 the teams tha run will have super fast Lb and thier should be great but the best way to beat the cover 2 is throw short routes if u got fast wrs they could beak the game wide open.

Hope that you have a good running game, because you are gonna get blitzed a lot...also, use the TE for passes over the middle...

quick short routes, dump balls and screens. All will dispurpt the blitz and take advantage of cover two. Also quick slant routes should be effective.
Dink and dunk it on them
Good luck
