Texas Four Man
Full-line interior twist
Both tackles crash down inside while both ends loop around them to the interior — the pocket collapses from the inside out.
When it applies
Obvious passing downs against a pocket quarterback, when your straight four-man rush is not winning.
+ StrengthsInterior chaos: guards end up blocking nobody while a looper runs free.
− Trade-offsTakes time to develop — quick game beats it; if the tackles do not crash hard, the ends loop into traffic.
