@Ballerstorm @princekyle or someone else should be able to answer definitively!

1. What schemes do teams run?  Are they all the same?  Mainly just concerned about 3-4 vs. 4-3.
2. Do teams get to choose what schemes their cb's run?  Like can a team choose to be zone based and exclusively/most of the time run zone(vice versa for man)?

Thanks

Offense can be balance, vertical, power, etc. Then you choose the run pass ratio among different situations (1st and 10, 1st and short, 3rd and long, etc. about a dozen choices). Defense you choose from 4-3, 3-4, nickel, dime. You can do different formations depending on the situation (same dozen as before) with blitz percentages as well for each.
2) Actually the man vs zone is built into the playbooks used. So for example the nickel playbook has about 12 plays and some of them have corners playing man, sometimes zone. I'd estimate there is a bit more man coverage than zone coverage in the default playbooks but I haven't added it all up.
