Dime Coverage
What does Dime Coverage Mean?
Defensive coverage that is based on the use of six defensive backs.
Sporting Charts explains Dime Coverage
Dime coverage is used primarily in obvious passing situations, where the offense might have as many as six eligible receivers running pass patterns. We expect to see the continued use of the dime with the new passing records that were broken in recent years.
