and i am fairly certain a lot wide receivers are required to understand that due to a lot of offenses being rhythm and time based. anyone playing in a west coast offense has to understand every step that everyone takes.
Not disagreeing with your take, but jokes aside…I never played football and I know what cover 3 is. So I really hope his quote was taken out of context…like he knows what cover 3 is, but didnt REALLY understand the nuances of it and how his new position (OLB) fits in that type of defense.
Madden on sega genesis had cover 3
You guys are thinking about your plays? I just randomly press a button on the 'Ask Coach' screens lmao
I know what he meant lol, it doesn’t make it any less mind blowing
Phillips is turning out to be a bust anyways. Flat track bully that beat up on Coastal OL. Look at Parsons, Rosseau and the Baltimore rookie end creating an instant impact while Phillips takes 6 seconds to get past an OT. Dude coasted off his size and now has no idea what's going on.
Cover 3 is one of the most basic defenses you run. If you play madden at a somewhat decent level you should know what it defends against and where it’s vulnerable.
nuances? Let’s just start by winning the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball. Should help with the little nuances.
Stop it....you're not certain. Gronk was just on tv saying he doesnt even watch film. When you're so physically gifted, you dont NEED to know everything about every postion. That is the operative word here. Did he NEED to know what the OLB coverage responsibility is to do his job last season? No, he didn't
You're using specious reasoning by throwing Belichick and Saban out there and assuming you know exactly what they require. The one thing we do know about Belichick is he's famous for telling his guys to "Do your job". That implies do what you're supposed and not worry about anyone else's responsibilities
