Title: Ok I haven't played organized football Post by: SmokeyJoe on August 25, 2012, 12:36:58 EDT Since freshman yr in highschool, and then I was pretty much a tackling dummy :biggrin: Here is my question: why is a position like WR so "complex" for freshmen to contribute early and often? How many patterns are there? Down & out, down & in, curl, post, go route, slant. What am I missing? Is it blocking assignments? Adjustments to coverage? I have faith Croom, ZRogers, Blanc, Bowles, and Howard are going to get the job done! GBO!

Usually results in INT's and passes that look like they are to no one.
