And yet that's exactly what you did. Miserably.

I never strayed off topic. The topic is that @TrueFloridian correctly pointed out that the OP incorrectly referred to the routes the TE's were running as post routes. Then you chimed in with this gem. "The TEs may have been running a post from the opposite side of the formation that leads to...

Okay. Thanks for clarifying.

That's a possibility, but we're discussing actual routes. Not scramble drills or busted plays. The three TE's all ran corner routes. Not post routes, not post-corners, and not busted plays or scramble drill/break offs.

At no point in that video did a TE run a post-corner. They each threw one corner route. The OP incorrectly called that a post route. It was a simple mistake. It wasn't that big a deal until you and others started trying to say that it is possible to run a post route to the corner. No. That's a...

Not successfully, no, because the debate is not separate. POST ROUTE: POST-CORNER ROUTE: CORNER ROUTE:

He didn't say they weren't running corner routes. He said they were not running post routes, which they are not. He also said TE's typically dont run POST-Corner routes because they are slower developing and require more speed than the typical TE possesses.

If you're lined up to the left and break to the left, that's a corner route. If you break towards the goalpost, that's a post. If you break across the middle of the field, it's a slant route.

"The post route (so named because the receiver’s target should be his side of the goalpost ends) is designed to break up coverage in the middle of the field and is most effective against defenses that only use one or two deep safeties. Because it attacks the middle of the field, it can pose...

"Longer corner routes such as the flag route aim for large gains or the end zone, and are usually more effective when receiver is in isolated coverage, with the defensive back playing inside. The corner route is often discussed or paired with the post route, which mirrors the corner but heads...

Why would you assume that you can continue a post route to the opposite corner, but cannot continue a slant route down field? Not all slants are quick slants. Besides, you're missing the point. A post route is called a post route because it's ran towards the goalpost. If a post is run 20-25...

A post that continues across the field is a cross or slant.

Back in my day we called it a post because you ran it toward the goal post, and we called it a flag because you ran it towards the pylon(flag). For some reason, though, a route that fakes to the post and turns to the pylon was still called a post corner rather than a post flag.

If you think Dorsey was coasting, you need to leave. Dorsey was the guy busting asses when guys failed to show up 15 minutes early.
