Linebackers Role in Pass Coverage

[mmarra82]

Is there any info out there about the linebackers roles in pass coverage. I understand what the corners and safeties do, but how about the linebackers. Are they in man in loose man coverage? Are they in BnR in bump and run coverage? Are they in zone with 3 deep and 4 deep?

Think I found this out myself from a discussion about a year ago. It appears to be unknown, the only known is that in a 3-4 the WLB is a pure pass rusher. As far as the other 3 backers and what coverage they are in, it is still uncertain.
