The Art of Route Running | NFL Films Presents 

I lost it when Chad was crying over how good the routes were 😂

Man Antonio Brown was near unstoppable in his prime

Davante Adams is the best route runner currently in the league. His ability to juke is a thing of beauty.

Josh McDaniels should not be allowed to speak over Davante Adams tape

Harbaugh saying it would be real nice if he would catch the ball is too funny 😂

An underrated route runner is Stevie Johnson. He was ahead of his time. If you look back at his tape he was doing things that all the top wideouts from today are doing

6:56 hits different after those 7 drops against the Steelers in Week 5.

Chad's one tear Rolling down his face has me dying😂😂😂

Damn no mention of Antonio brown he really smothered his accomplishments

Thanks for shouting out Keenan 🙌😂 he may have not been on the best of teams but he is always crazy to watch play

Lol Harbaugh’s comment about needing to catch the ball at the end. Amen! 😂

Keenan Allen is not fast. BUT That man is always open. Even at 31 right now, hes probably having the best year I have ever seen from him. Justin Herbert has missed him wide open last two games to the point of maybe 100+ yards and two-three touchdowns. If he was on another team he would be talked about so much. Only Charger record he is chasing is all time yards from Gates, which is also insane to think about cause he was our TE.

Keenan Allan with the Chargers he'll make ya look like a idiot and will make you silly his route running is ridiculously crazy

Marvin Harrison was a excellent route runner of a wide receiver in his peime catching passes from Peyton Manning

Not showing Antonio Brown in this video is damn near criminal.

Such beautiful routes by Davante Adams, only to be missed by Raiders QBs by 5 yards

1:02 To this day still the best route I’ve ever seen ran.

It’s less thought about cause the ball isn’t in their hands yet, but it’s essential to an offense.

Why are they asking guys who don’t run routes about route running 😂. Also Antonio Brown was the best route runner I’ve ever seen

Chad Johnson is a footwork grandmaster

Marvin Harrison doesn't get enough credit for how crispy his routes were.

Some of these receivers in the NFL who are the best at route running is like watching Allen Iverson in the NBA crossing over everyone making them look foolish the way he dose on the hardwood but he did play high school football too now he's a basketball hall of famer

"Josh McDaniels, Raiders Head Coach" aged like milk

I feel like head movement is also an important key to running a route. DB’s are watching everything from eyes to hand. If you look one direction and go another direction, the db is now in no man’s land

4:54 was so beautiful, made me cry like ocho

Chad Johnson feet was crazy but phenomenal of what he dose best in Cincinnati playing for the Bangles

Chad Ocho is the greatest route runner of all time and it’s not debatable. He used to tell DBs his routes lmao still couldn’t stop it

harbaurgh calling out his receivers lol

Kelce's routes are extremely underrated

The Nuk clip is hilarious. 😂😂 Dhop that guy

I love that Josh McDaniels is in this video for all of eternity.

I want more Keenan Allan highlights

Best attributes of a route runner is the ability to separate, timing, and change of direction skills.

Amari Cooper is underrated

85 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐

can we talk about the art of locking up receivers?

Fred Biletnikoff was the og pure route runner

didn't realize there were so many different ways to juke, thanks

For me, Steve Largent is the greatest pure route runner in NFL history. Having to compensate for his average athleticism with precise and crisp moves for an entire high-tier HOF career is insane.

It’s so advanced nowadays 💯

6:13 this might be the worst analogy of a great route runner I've ever heard lmao

Chad is always open. They should've showed some love to McCaffrey.

And now we see why CB is the hardest position.

No wonder receivers get mad when they're not thrown the ball. All that work to get open for nothing

Common NFL films W

2:53... I DIDN'T see Diggs catch the 🏈

Diggs listed at 6ft and Allen at 6’5 yet Josh Allen looks a whole 1ft taller than him.

Raymond Berry invented most of it.

Antonio Brown and Jerry Rice the route running goats

That Deandre hopkins play is an all timer

The greatest artist of the art of route running is Jerry Rice. You want to be a great WR in the NFL? Then start watching film on Jerry Rice.

Keenan allen will be in the top 3-6 in WR stats year after year, yet no one gives him any recognition. His hands might get a little inconsistent here and there...but he is elite

Best ever was Steve Largent 😊

Chase did that mane bad at the beginning. 😭

Oh word so no Amari cooper in those joint.

Is this a reupload?

How tf yall leave out Doug Baldwin?

Has anybody heard of Marvin Harrison

Can we show some love for AJ Brown? He’s not just strong as hell, but he has amazing footwork!

Doug Baldwin was a great route runner.

They need to rerelease this video and have “former Las Vegas raiders coach” to Josh McDaniels🤣

Antonio Brown, Davonte Adams, and Marvin Harrison from the Colts are the best route runners of all time

Hopkins breaking Halls ankles is history. The build up of them arguing makes it so much worse for hall. Who was a great CB in his years

Yeah a lot of great ones were left out here. Sammy White for one.

Torry Holt used to mf thread some routes Issac Bruce as well

Davante still the best

Y'all remember Reggie Wayne and Torry Holt smh they were technicians

This is why I have more respect for corner backs...imagine having to stick with these guys, starting your cover literally on a backfoot and still make a play on the ball!

Nobody's better than Keenan Allen

no one is better than jerry jeudy or amari cooper stamp tha

Not a chad tear

Does the NFL fit these routes into their script every season?

Smitty 🫶🏼

ANTONIO BROWN?!

jfc there's no escaping eberflus

amari cooper ?

Hunter Renfrow:

Diggs has the best feet in the NFL.

Haha Ocho is a damn fool

Not a single mention of Antonio Brown? He's probably the best route runner of all time.

No Hunter Renfrow 😬

Dez was a Mid WR

No honorable mention for hunter renfrow? Showed kupp.

Josh McDaniels raiders HC 😂😂not for long

Sean shouldn’t be here dude sends two receivers to the same spot

I fear god

John 12:46 I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.

Not one Ravens WR. Lamar needs helps

Mike Evans anyone?? The only receiver in nfl history with 1000+ yards in each season he’s ever played smh 🤦‍♂️

So nobody gonna press Jamar Chase right ok.

No mention of Amari Cooper is blasphemy

First

All those receivers except ocho crafted their game after Can’tguardmike

Too bad Adam’s is on the Raiders… I know he wants to play for his team but they are just absolutely not utilizing him

None of this is in madden lol 😂

uhhh yeah belichick and josh mcdaniels shouldn't be allowed to talk about route running. Those two can peace out.

I still think AB was better than these guys

Amazing video, however I had to listen to “Brandon Staley” talk about my pookie bear keenan allen so I am unfortunately disliking😢

No Mike Evans? Most underrated WR in the game

Females are to be seen not heard especially about sports 💯
