Hurts has pretty impressive squat numbers.

Only time will tell which version is true, but I have my suspicions.

Pretty obvious the pushing thing picked up exponentially this season. And I haven't seen any other teams doing the ground blocking technique (as I imagine it's difficult to train an entire OL midseason something radically new), but an offseasons can change that easily enough. It's simply what a coach decides if it is important enough to implement.

On his 1st pass TD kelce made his defender look like he was on ice skates and his other 2 TD passes were to players who were left un-guarded.

It didn’t deserve the regular season mvp either, but at least there an argument could be made for him being a top 3-5 candidate. He didn’t stand out in any way this game.

The pushing thing picked up this year because it's easy to do. It does not take an off season to tell a 240 lb RB to push a QB or wildcat QB. Although it was done prior to this year, it certainly was done a lot more this year. Don't ask me why coaches weren't doing this feequently prior to this season, but again the NFL is a copycat league.

You are referencing RBs on a QB dive.

Sorry... you are saying Sanders and Gainwell are more important than any non-OL on that play?

?

I'm describing a play that most, if not all NFL teams are capable of executing given adequate time, training, and preparation.

I didn't bring up the squat stuff, other than noting a number of players who can play wildcat can squat a lot of weight.

This thread would not have been complete without bahbah weighing in.

I love to hear that others teams don't have enough time to prepare for a play that they have been bitching about all year.
