+Reign B nah it's usually set up to take turns so you have a line of linebackers, linemen, and running backs. after each tackle your supposed to switch up the running back and linebackers and the offense of line should switch to D and the D switch to O. Atleast how my team plays it
I bet Barry Sanders from Oklahoma did this drill all the time but I bet the first time he ran outside of the bags and juked out everyone and didn't know you had to stay in the bags, probably snapped some poor kids ankles and handed the ball to the nearest kid after he got past the bags :D
One thing I don't like is all the setup and prep for the drill. Line up 3 guys on each side and let em go, all that "4th and goal", moving the line of scrimmage up and down looks stupid
The reason for this is they teach the defensive to make big plays down when there 1-2yards of scoring a td. Teaches them to think harder in harder sitiuations. And make smarter descisions
+Deon Hawkins aye never doubt anyone. The kid is probably a sophomore or junior. Could go D1 or JC then d1 and ball out at the D1 level & you never know what could happen after that. NFL scouts will find him if he does good at the D1 level. Shit even mediocre guys at D1 level get at shot at the NFL.
heights163 Yeah, 0.1% Chance they get a shot. Again, do you realize how difficult it is to get into the pros and how many teams there are and how many people are on those teams in the whole world?
The one in the backfield the safety or whatever. The one thing i see wrong with him. Is his footwork. Every time he starts to run and make the tackle. His first step is backwards. Ur first step should always be forwards. And Also he is tackling half a man. He is hitting the side of him. One day he is gonna find a runningback/fullback that can bounce right off that hit everytime.
+Jacob Beese yes that's true but in this case he isn't reading the offense....in a game he reads to see if it's pass or run.... In this case it will ALWAYS be a run... So in this case his first step should always be forward.
+Zach Garza it really don't matter if he is reading the offense his first step is still always back because if he reads the play wrong and it's thrown over his head who's fault is it?
+Jacob Beese like I said.. That's in a game his first step is Always back...... But in this drill. He is trying to stop the runner from making is past a certain point so he needs to gain more ground and stop him at the line of scrimmage or further back thus his first step should be forward... The drill it self is different from the actual game ... Footwork differs between plays and also drills ... If it was a passing drill then yes his first step would be back...
oneal mcqueen It's not easy, join a community team or your college team or whatever. American Football is not fucking easy. I don't even play in the USA, I play for a team based in London, UK. We have some raw talent over here.
well the sport is already hard. and coming from someone who doesnt even play it, theres no way you would be able to take the pressure and responsibility of being a QB
