@maxtoscano1@richjmadrid Did not feel like fucking around with the twitter character count limit so hopefully you can see this good.
I'm not very good at writing, and didn't proof read so hopefully it makes sense.
If you got any questions or want to discuss further, I'm more than happy to!
@AdaptSkill Protection is 1/2 slide. RT is responsible for inside most of LB and edge. Often referred to as a “big dual”. This is why his initial set is to the edge.
Q is hot off of +1 to man side
Sliding away from the man answer keeps the hot and the route in the same vision.
Well done
@fishehboi Based on what you said in that last reply, I think we have different definitions of a “big dual”.
However, earlier in the discussion, I asked what ur definition of a big dual was and this was your response.
Which lead me to believe ur definition was any dual read by a T.
@fishehboi No, I am not saying the same thing!as you
I’m saying the read is most dangerous to next. Not inside-out.
I’m saying in both clips you originally posted, there were dual reads on both plays (most likely), and the difference in the reps was what player was “most dangerous”
@fishehboi I don't think that definition is detailed enough to accurately depict how dual reads function.
Blocking the inside most defender is not a dual read, rather it is the result of the dual read.
@fishehboi And ur sayin even if the backer walked right into the B gap pre-snap the tackle would still take the edge?
I dont know any teams who would teach it that way.
@fishehboi You cannot say that for certain.
No one outside of the building knows how they define their rules, and one clip alone is not enough to get an idea of what their rules are.
There is not just one way to define what path is considered the path of least resistance.
Wanted to show off a little of this app's functionality, check out the Pair Preference graphs for C2 and C3 league-wide: super strong preference for attacking the MOF and hole space vs C2, vs. attacking the deep out, deep seam and intermediate middle vs. C3
Really excited to share my #BigDataBowl Submission for 2026! This is Window Shopping: a study on how defenses protect and close down field spaces, and how offenses open those spaces up. I’m really proud of this year’s work, and I’m going to be breaking it down in this thread!
@kurt13warner Some teams even teach the choice runners to sit vs pressure.
Could be the explanation here. No one outside of the Eagles building has any clue🤷♂️
Anyone who’s been naive enough to ask me how to learn about the pass game with both route concepts and coverage has gotten the same exact answer from me: diagram plays to learn about scheme and put together your own system. Even if you don’t ever show it to anybody, you see the game in a much more specific and holistic perspective. It’s just taking the engine apart and putting it back together. It certainly helps way more if you’re the one drawing the plays up for masters like McVay or Reid (who are both extremely specific in how they want their diagrams to be presented visually), but I used to just go through old playbooks and diagram everything freehand so that it imprinted on my mind.
