Cover 3 help

how do I stop outside corner routes from cover 3? Do you guys do base align? i only use cover 3 sky and cover 3 seams but honestly not sure if that makes a difference for the corner routes I’ll mix up between cover 3 sky with outside Shading and cover 3 seams with overtop shading. All my corners have deep zone ko and my sub lbs both have mid zone ko. everyone also has pick artist

Also does base align help? I do it sometimes if im Playing A passer and I’ll usually move the deep zone safety to the center because in base align he’ll be out of place, but against the run I  switch  back to default align

Why don’t you call a different defense? 
 

you have to set your zone drops. Or man up them.

It depends on if your running match with your zone.  If your running match and you shade it changes the principles so I don't shade in match.  Alsoit depends on the formation 2x2/ trips,  different zone  have different rules.  If your just in default for zone it depends on your settings for zone drops but 20-25 should take corner routes.

Im not all that comfortable in other defenses, sometimes I run cover 4 if they’re just doing verticals or cover 2 if they’re doing underneath stuff but for the most part I stay in cover 3, and I try to do the zone drops but then they’ll just throw to the underneath guy

I never run match coverage I don’t really know much about how it works, but I have heard about sharing in match messing everything up, and I’ll try to do 20-25 on the curl flats
