The best example of a time to use a cover 2, was the colts and bears in the super bowl. The bears liked to run and throw deep, which is to the strength of a cover 2 if you have the players. A lot of times little league teams use it because the corners sit in the flat and stop rushers coming off the edge while 2 safeties cover the receivers. I never liked it but played in it in a league a couple years ago and most guys weren't smart enough to make it work. Zones like cover 2 take a lot of discipline from a lot of guys to work.
