Official Spring PractiSe #5: Thursday March 23

[Home Slice]

Can someone explain why we have a TE turning his back to the QB on a 4 yard route?

 

[COCane4Life]

Thank you for your thoughts but I was interested in the TE turning his back to the QB. The NFL TEs kill LBs by becoming "open" when they turn facing the QB and to use a basketball term "post-up" on quick passes...........is the turn with the back to the QB intended to fool the defense and the TE becomes "open" only after he runs several yards outside?

I don’t think any of us can answer that question because we have no clue what they’re working on. But there’s a coaching clinic this weekend lol pull up. Mario said they’ll be there until midnight answering questions

235?

Looks like he can add another 10-15 in his upper body without an issue. From that picture, I'm assuming the 20lbs of weight came through a thickening of his legs.

That’s good to know! There’s been a lot of talk about him but it’s tough to really know what to believe

He had some maturity issues in high school. I was kind of surprised he never entered the portal after last year. That's a good sign because it means he's taking things seriously.

Really excited to see Jaleel show out this year

Says the guy named Ashley.

You're trying to get a showdown gif, huh


Edit:

Nvm, I saw the exchange. That was great, @JustAFanTHX and @Ashley Schaeffer

Question is… was it a 1 glove wipe or a 2 glove wipe?

its a T route...Planting the food or foot (whichever) and bursting away lets you get back to speed faster. It's a man beating concept.

Turning and facing the QB slows down the route (which that pivot would be used in a zone situation to "sit" in the zone and not run into the next one.

Gonna try that on my new diet. Planting the food and then running away from it.

When you’re 6’5” you can weigh a lot and never actually look bulky

How long are we holding Alonzo out for, now that he's in that walking boot?
