Thank you @StMarysFoodBank in Phoenix for having us!

(People get confused about this one.)

Great Linebackers play DOWNHILL.

And that doesn’t mean they fly into the line of scrimmage at the snap.

It means they play like the field is literally tilted.

Gaining ground with every step, closing space, suffocating the ball carrier.

Linebackers:

Never go out of your way to take on a block.

If the blocker is out of position?

Avoid.

Stack.

Continue on your way.

[Jon Svec @JonSvecX]

People think Linebackers are built on brute force.

But the great ones master the MENTAL side of the game.

The Playbook

They play SMART so they can play FAST.

[Jon Svec @JonSvecX]

It’s great when Linebackers are big, strong, and fast.

But it’s better when they’re smart, disciplined, and decisive.

[Jon Svec @JonSvecX]

Linebackers:

Yes.

You’re going to get held.

And the ref’s not going to call it.

So what?

Extend. Pull. Disengage.

Elite Linebackers don’t make excuses.

They make plays.
