Easy answer to our short yardage probems.

If I am standing straight over you and you fire off directly at me, it is tougher for me to block you to one side because you have a stable force coming from your back.

If you're on my left shoulder and you fire straight off, it is easier for me to push you to the left because you don't have a stable force pushing from the back left.


It is called physics and I do understand it perfectly.  If you hit me at an angle then you will move me at an angle but my forward motion will carry me into the backfield not sideways down the line.  That is why it is easier to get penetration into the backfield by lining up in the gaps.  If you don't believe me thne just ask any college or NFL coach who lnes up his players in the gaps on short yardage siutations.

You don't understand situational football



I understand situational football more than you.  And here is how I will prove it.

Give me an example of an "obvious running situation".  Don't tell me what "isn't" one.  Tell me what "is" one.

Your explanation for why Bengal RBs were more successful in short yardage situations running from the shotgun was based on the difference between "obvious running situations" and other situations.  So I just want to test your answer to see if you have a clue what you ar talking about.

So, Mr "Expert on Situational Football", give me your definition of an "obvious running situation".
