Not sure what Whatever is seeing, as most every play highlighted, Barnett is beating his man.  He may appear to be "unblocked" as many times he just gets there faster than his intended blocker can react.  I saw plays of him not only beating Tackles around the corner, but a play of him driving a Tackle back, and then proceeding to come to the inside, I saw a play of him dismissing a RB, I saw a play on a stunt where the OL that tried to pick him up, had no answer.

Whatever, I have to tell you something.  They don't make highlight videos chock full of action that just anyone can do..

I was hoping that you had actual "film", like the coaching variety used by opposing teams, to show how he capitalizes, but you did not.

There are numerous plays in there in where Barnett wins with speed, and some with power.  However, when you frame by frame those cited plays, it's very clear what the OL is doing.  When you watch it real time, it creates the illusion that he's blowing around these guys, but in reality, he's just the man unaccounted for in the blocking scheme.

Highlight films are created to make guys look better than they are, bottom line.

At this point, I will agree to disagree.  People can do as much or as little research into the guy and draw their own conclusions.
