Stump Mitchell The Running Back Whisperer | NFL Films Presents 

They got Nick Chubb to talk...give these producers a raise.

He’s worthy of the hall of fame as a runners coach

I played for him my rookie year in Seattle. I will never forget what he did for me. I appreciate you Coach Stump.

Stump is definitely one of the best RB coaches in the league for sure. David Johnson was a good rookie, but Stump Mitchell helped shape his game to help DJ become a monster in his 2016 year.

WOW! Stump Mitchell is not a name I've seen in decades and I can't believe how much he's changed. But as a kid I remember seeing him playing for The Citadel, and was unquestionably their greatest player ever. He ran wild against my South Carolina Gamecocks and almost outshined SC's Heisman Trophy winner George Rogers. So happy Stump's doing so well. He was always a winner!

You don’t last 23 years in this cut-throat business without doing something right. I remember back in the ‘80s he took a shot from Lawrence Taylor, that would send any back to the hospital. Stump got up, went back to the huddle. Tough player.

This guy is awesome. The fact that he’s made multiple stars out of guys is crazy, but the David Johnson coaching really stood out because as soon as stumpy left DJ kinda fell off, showing how important stumpy is

he seems like such a good uncle or grandpa you could have

One of the coolest times of my life as a high school football player was the summers I got to work out the coach stump and my uncle when they coached at Morgan state university together. He is a living Legend

Stump Mitchell is one of the gentleman of the game. So much knowledge.

I lived in St Louis when Stump Mitchell played for the football Cardinals. He was one of my favorite players. Always 100% high energy.

Stump was a great player in the 80s.❤

Mitchell and Anderson were a bad-ass duo back in the day...NO DOUBT!

I still have this guy's football card from 1986 from the Cardinals.

He looks like a wizard about to send someone out on a mystical quest.

That fourth back last season was Jerome Ford, who definitely is making the most of his opportunity this year. Stump!

Love to see his breakdown with Shawn Alexander

I love to watch him play ! I didnt know he was coaching! Great story! There 3 rd sting run back could start for most team!

Watched Stump put on a show in the last football game played by the St. Louis football Cardinals. It was so cold that, when I spilled the hot chocolate my pops bought me, it froze after running down two steps. Doesn't get cold like that, anymore. GG, Stump.

Love it. A purist. A guru. Great piece.

Had forgotten about stump. I remember him playing. He was tough.

Stump real quietly had a STRONG career in the 80's. Dude had about 12,000 All Purpose Yards in just a 9 year career. Could run, could catch, could punk and kickoff return, dude even has a 115 passer rating in 9 career attempts lol. All-around 80's baller.

As a Seahawks fan had no clue we had so many talented RBs

For Stump it's sad that he really only saw playoffs once in 1982 and that he was behind Otis Anderson who had his own mountain to climb and eventually got to the top by winning a Super Bowl with the Giants as an MVP. Stump really is a great running backs coach.

I am a Browns fan, 7:03 so glad we have “the man” Stump!!!! The wizard of backs!!🙏🏽👍

Stump is a pretty dope nickname.

I grew up watching Stump Mitchell play at Citadel. He was so good. My first "favorite" player not at Clemson or Dallas.

I love the look on Nick Chubb's face when Kareem is bitching about not getting the ball enough. He's all like "oh dear I.......i don't think we can TALK to him like that Kareem...", hilarious. He even had a little twitch.

thats great to hear hes a wizard in every facet on these running backs love the content nfl films

Greatest thing we can do is inspire

Cold Stump!!! He was ALWAYS one of my favorite players! Just looking at the Metrics, it should be obvious the Coach Mitchell didn't last 9 years in the League by being a Physical Freak. At 5'9" he had a low center of Gravity which gives him the ability to cut like a Cheetah but you don't average 4.7 yards per carry of the course of a 9 year career based on Physical Attributes alone. You can tell he's still in the weight room too. Good Look! Coach "Stump" Mitchell

stump was a great player himself had his card back in the day

Wonderful! I would not have known about him without this film. Thank you!

Stump was my favorite Cardinals player as a kid. I was fortunate enough to watch him pull into my high school parking lot in Mesa Arizona probably around 1997. I presume he had a meeting with our athletic department. (I wanna say it was a white Mercedes?) I left him a note on the windshield of his car. I had a Stump poster in my room. (Missing the wizard beard at the time.) It greeted me kindly even after he left the birds nest.

Stump Mitchell is the running back sensei.

Mack Strong is one of the best FB ever.

never heard of him till now...such a inspirational guy

I'm a eagles fan, Stump was a great rb himself for the cardinals back in the Neil Lomax days. Bad team but helluva player.

This was awesome. NFL films rules.

Ricky Watters was so tickled 😂😂

I remember going to see him play at the Citadel back when I was a kid.

I remember the game when Stump hurt his knee against the Giants at the Meadowlands, Wellington Mara visited Mitchell in the hospital and paid for his medical expenses Bid well didnt do a thing for stump Great seeing Stump

He was a good back in his own right when he played.

Woooww... Ol Stump Mitchell!!... Was wondering what he was doing. Kingsland,Ga stand up!!💪🏾✊🏾

Stump Mitchell & OJ Anderson were a great backfield back in the day

Its kind of wild hes been a top tier position coach for two decades and never had a HC job...

AWESOME!!! GOD BLESS YOU BROTHER :)

Love these NFL Films videos

how did they get nick chubb to talk???

Forgot all about this cat ! Lol those Cardinals uniforms were boss

I was growing up in Charleston, SC when he was playing at the Citadel. Good running back, his name was always in the newspaper.

He just seems like a fun guy to be around!

I am from Charleston South Carolina the Citadel is right there by my old High School man he is a beast

20 YEARS AND STILL A ASSISTANT!!!!

MACK STRONG AND SHAUN ALEXANDER WERE MONSTERS🙏🏾

Stump Mitchell and Roger Craig were my favorite

This reminds me of the old school nfl films. Really cool

damn he really has a goated team of rb's

Some might take a different approach but I think a player like Mitchell was as a pro is why he's effective as a coach. Doing all the little things and being prepared is the key to longevity so his message is key to the men who want to be professional football players.

if a OG got a beard and locs you know he about business

Great piece

Dudes beard is epic, Black Santa lol

How is this man not an NFL head coach yet?

Nice! One of my favorite childhood running backs

Stump was the man with my STL CARDINALS

Pride of Camden County Georgia!

Stump Mitchell I remember when I was in grade school he came to my school which is m u l l a n p h y it was after Christmas because I remember getting a Cardinals zip up sweater and there was this guy in my class that he was a Cowboy fan and he used to wear all his cowboy stuff and the day that stump came to my class I had on my sweater man talk about memories

Damn the last time I seen Shuan Alexander was on the cover of madden lol

Very Entertaining and fun video

Dope video! Great subject!

Great player

Having the nickname "Stump" is cool enough.

Loved this guy when i was a kid in St.Louis...Big ass heart..i could tell that as a kid...Loved Ottis too.

keep it moving stump!

Most Browns fans don't realize how blessed we are to have Coach Callahan and Coach Stump on the same staff.

That beard is amazing 🔥👑

Had the pleasure of playing against him his Senior at the Citadel. Then working with his Father later on.

I was so sad to see him leave AZ!

Stump’s brother is Corlys Velaryon, aka the Sea Snake. 😂

He’s an rb coach but some pip squeek division 3 slot receiver is a head coach make it make sense to me!!!

This dude is dope haha

He was a great player.

I literally just commented on Stumps firing video about he and Kareem had a hard time seeing eye to eye a lot of the time lol

Alaxander was my favorite running back when he was in league

Stump Mitchell was a great RB for the Cardinals

4:17 you ready🤣💯

even tho he sucked at Southern University i am happy for his success

Another Chucktown hero

The wizard has spoken

Excellent video

Camden county GA FINEST!😎

Mr Mitchell was my Assistant Principal in Jr High

I remember Stomp playing for the St Louis Cardinals against my Dallas Cowboys. That's when St Louis was in the NFC East.

"Handoff the Great"

Alot of these old school players that was really nice didn't get any recognition if they played on a weak team with low media coverage or overlooked if they had a superstar on the team..example the super duper twins the 2 Wr playing for dolphins with Marino...them 2 was nasty hands and speed both over 1000 yards double digits tds a season..marino had help breaking records all I'm saying

Great content

I assumed this was a parody at first when I saw the gray beard and the name "Stump." It even felt fake when Shaun Alexander started talking. I was thinking it was going to be a star RB in disguise.

NY Giants need to hire this guy stat

Aye it's Leroy from Tekken

Please pick this guy up Seahawks, dude has big Pete Carrol culture energy.
