Great pace from Zach Ertz on this "special" route

"Creativity" is poorly utilized in the public. Stroud putting the ball low to the back hip to slow the receiver's momentum and keep it away from the defender is "creativity," it's just in structure.

This is when processing gets so hard, when you have to work off a picture frontside and feel moving bodies around you and negotiate space in the pocket all while adjusting your eyes and reacting to a new picture.

Darnold couldn't see Hockenson break open in time as a result, you miss openings

You have to have your head aligned with the playside shoulder of the defender when trying to seal the perimeter on gap scheme so that you can give yourself outside leverage and force them to go through your whole body to get to the ball.

You won't knock Travon Walker over with the initial strike

Watching Cole Kmet block is unbelievably frustrating, you are 260 pounds!

Onto Chicago in the great TE watch of the 24 season and I know we all like the Texans' D , but exhibit 600 of why you can't just get small and fast anymore on the DL and space everything out.

For a guy who played in a WR body (6'4, 235), the true in-line blocking for Oronde Gadsden wasn't THAT bad. It wasn't good, but it could be worse.

He's up to around 245 and has more frame to fill out, if he can develop serviceably there could be a real player there in some time.

I know this isn't who I think it is....

lol at Donovan Ezeiruaku's surprise at how much knockback he got on the initial strike on Oronde Gadsden II.

I keep coming back to Jalin Conyers as someone who has never been probably utilized or developed.

He is much more suited to a true Y role and has every tool to excel.

For instance, you want to see him get more depth on this route, at about 4-6 yards rather than 2. This would get him up on the DB and prevent him from hanging back, staying square, and closing on the break.

Had he done that, the sharpness/burst would have gotten him open

Tyler Warren's ability to throttle down and change direction is ridiculous and will serve him well as a route-runner in space, where he still has immense untapped potential in approach and detail.

It's only 9 yards but every time you look there's a new thing to like about the Bucs here running Wide Zone. IE:

-The Y doing a great job capturing the shoulder and turning out the frontside end.

-The shove and reach by the LG and LT.

-The cutoff of the BSDE by the X

The faster your neurological processing the more clearly you see things. That's when you get creative S-tier placement.

Burrow sees based on the angle of the S hips that he'll break to undercut it and also knows the CB is low and outside so it registers to him to put it up and inside behind the S.

Good look at the importance of capturing the playside shoulder of the DEF when sealing the frontside edge on gap scheme in-line.

First clip he gets the DE's outside shoulder which forces him to get through the body to fold into the other gap, 2nd he strikes too down the middle and doesn't.
