make one about the run game too!! Great video, always learn a lot from you
I wish all UA-cam commercials were embedded in videos like this. A simple, tasteful short ad in the middle of a 15 minute video that a lot of work went into making is reasonable.
"colossal men communicating in code to combat chaos created by crafty coaches"
a lot of alliteration from anxious announcers attempting to acclimate amateurs to awesome accomplishments...
@@VinceLyle2161 _Touché!_
oooof i love being called a colossal!
B.A.R.S
I was wondering how many Cs...
As a former collegiate guard, this video was pure gold. Thank you!
As a former collegiate Nose Guard [Interior Defensive Tackle], I concur... The blocking schemes and audibles were always impressive to me... My school played and aggressive, slanting 3-4 and I was amazed when offenses managed to block our stunts and blitzes... I'm happy I got to turn my brain off and just play fast... I saved my thinking for the Engineering Building...
@@busyrand I haven't heard a reference to "turn my brain off" regarding football in a long time 😅! Brings me right back to my highschool offensive line coach asking if we remembered to turn our our brains back on after D line practice.
@@micahlarimer155 Hahahaha! It's always funny to hear the roasting between us in the Pits... Much respect... Your comment brought me some joy on a tough day...
Wow, I’m 70 years old and have been watching football for years. Learned so much from this video, thanks
I am a HS O-Line coach and I shared this with my players to help make "complex" ideas simple to them. I think the video is excellent! Thank you!
Happy you found this helpful coach!
I love recaps on players but the technical breakdown on strat is dope
As someone new-ish to football and trying to understand it beyond "see QB throw ball far" I was HOPING you guys would do something like a "for dummies" series. This is awesome!
Could you consider making the run protection video, please?
i second this!
Yes, please do!
Run game is much more vast than pass pro… A good content creator could do monthly videos on run game and not cover much. Tough ask to ask generally about run game in one video.
shorturl.at/IL3ob This is you after you see our run game video @austinstenger1692
Thanks for these kind of videos, I really appreciate you as one of the few channels that will actually break stuff down in depth and you make it easy to understand!
Always been a casual yet dedicated fan. Love watching football but gave up playing it very young. Learning stuff like this is going to make watching the game so much more fun than it already is! Thank you!!!!
These are the videos i watch your channel for. Keep breaking down the strategy and terms. Been watching for 40 years and this is the best explanation I've seen.
You should sell a copy of this to the Patriots.
Lmfao
@@reallyjustchilling3946it’s too early for this diabolical narrative lmfao
Another one to the panthers too. Absolute embarrassment
People always grabbing for that low-hanging fruit....
I've watched football my whole life, but because I never played beyond a level where the Power I formation was the only formation I ever saw, I haven't really understood a lot of nuances of the game for the last 20-30 years. Your videos are great. Watching football this last year was like watching a whole new game.
Another video on this channel that leaves me a lot smarter than I was. thx!
Fantastic content -- I would love to see an entire series of deep dives like this on all positions. I've been watching football for years but I learnt so many new things that will add to enjoyment i get when i watch my next game! Really superb work!
I've been watching football for over twenty years now, and the offensive line, and its offensive schemes, were the last thing i learnt in football - and I learnt a lot watching this video! thanks.
This is the kind of video I need because it makes me appreciate watching football more - thank you.
I've never before seen such a good explanation of football tactics for those of us who never played the game. Thanks for making this!
This is awesome, great teaching tool for my son, who is starting to want to understand football better. He can replay this as many times as it takes.
The mark of a great UA-cam channel is how much you trust it to watch it while you eat. And this one is up there as trustworthy.
I'm completely new to football, and I thought this video was very digestible. Thanks for letting people like me enjoy the tactics of football.
Yeeeees!!! Finally!!! I've tried to find this type of thing before and came up empty handed...explanations of play calling, defense, offense, all that? Not super easy to find. Subbed SO hard!!! 👍
"colossal men communicating in code to combat chaos caused by crafty coaches" is quite the alliteration. Salud!
Your tutorials are pure gold. They make the game so fascinating to guys like me who never played. Big thank you, please do more!
This is the kind of educational content I'm constantly looking for. I'd watch every episode of a series about xs and os in that format
I really enjoyed this detailed strategy breakdown! The offensive line is something in football I've never understood well and this video makes the basics digestible for laymen like me.
I'd love to see more videos like this!
I have been watching football all my life and I still learned a lot from this video. I am familiar with a lot of the plays, but I never really knew the reasoning behind some of the calls.
SUPERB VIDEO!!! Coach a pop Warner U14 team...watched this video with them to end last week. This week they've looked capable of combatting high school defenses. Dramatic improvement in play, smarter questions asked during drills. TY TY TY!
Amazing breakdowns, love how you give examples and reasons for the decisions being made on field.
One thing that might help beginners like me, is after you show us the routes, freezing the play to show us where to look.
Play action is a perfect example. The you explained that the misdirections and fake handoffs were being used to trick DBs into rushing, only for the qb to quick throw to the shallow crosser in the space the DBs just vacated.
If before that play, you paused and circled some of the DBs that are about to be tricked into rushing, I think it'd be a next step in helping us understand.
In any case, great work, can't wait to binge this channel
very few understandable pass pro youtube videos that I have found. Pretty much just this and the QB school one. As someone who never played but finds the x and o aspect very interesting I appreciate this video massively.
Raiders in the 70's and 80's dominated the o-line . Left side Highway 63 . Upshaw and Shell. RN4L
i'm a very new football fan and i love how you diagram everything before the play, while you explain it, it really helps illustrate what everyone's supposed to do! offensive lines are actually kinda fun to watch.
no BS just straight information , we like that
this was great!! please continue this series
Been looking for a super technical football channel bro. Keep it up. Subbed.
O-line is where it starts.
It's hard to believe I've never seen any of your videos before, this was fantastic. Definitely subscribing now so I'll see them from here on out
Loving this! Would love to hear a bit more about differences between the various level of ball and tendencies (HS vs D1 vs NFL etc) What's more effective/common at each level and what not.
This was interesting and discussed things that I have never considered. I played in my HS days and have watched football for most of my life, but I learned alot today about the thinking of the game... thanks.
Roll Tide! ( sorry, I just had to)
This is great. Lots of terminology I've heard but hadn't seen in context on the field. I'll be revisiting this before the next season.
I would love to see a pass rush companion to this video. Also amazing alliteration in that intro 😂
i played o-line in hs and college and as fun a mauling ppl is, i loved the strategic unit-play the most... been a youth league coach for a minute but had to turn down my first HS opportunity this year on account of having my first kid and watching this video really made excited to get out there next season at a higher level or i can introduce some of the more advanced concepts... much appreciated
Been watching NFL since 85 never played and now just learning about it.
Awesome, love these thorough explanations. Looking forward to the run game version.
Have learnt so much from this type of content. 1st time coach from NZ really appreciate the content Sir 🙏🏈💯 literally ran cover 7 in my first season as HC with a bunch newbies and we made semi finals and finals in ntoh comps we entered.
Def gonna try implament this i our next season.
I was right guard and our team failed because our coaches didn't teach blocking assignments.
I would always get my guy and look back at our QB or RB getting smoked in the backfield.
We dealt with stacked boxes a lot, but still, that's bad coaching.
Great video for the unsung heroes.
Of course I didn't realize why until I was out of HS. They got a new coach and went 7-2 with half the athletes the next year. We went 0-8.
This is a great. I’m a thinking fan in soccer and am just getting familiar with football. These Intros are great
Great video. I would have liked to see something about RPO blocking too though. I've always wondered how they manage to block well enough for a run without going down field too far at the same time.
I class RPOs as part of the run game as they are an option play - I'll definitely cover them in the run breakdown video
1:15 I was so excited when the Ravens signed Matt Birk from Minnesota 😁 And that team wound up winning the Super Bowl 🎉 👏
Awesome tutorial. You always present in a way that is easy to understand for those of us that never played the game. Thanks.
So simple and clear explanations! You can be a great coach for school and college-level players!
You are the best analysis in the game ...Thanks for teaching!!

Of all the football channels with a b&w logo in the shape of a football, this is the one that's worth watching.
Like always, your videos are the best.. I'd rather see your videos. Instead of ESPN..
Keep up the very good work
This is what NFL and D1 athletes are really secretly watching when their gf comes home and they close the computer quickly
This is a terrific video, maybe the best I’ve seen from this channel.
That was very helpful - you just got yourself a new subscriber here!
Just found your channel. This junk is awesome. The game sure has evolved since I was a right guard in high school..
Okay, I'd love to see one for the run game, and also one from the defensive perspective, covering their assignments and adjustments.
Just an excellent video explaining an aspect of the game I had not understood so well before. Much appreciated and liked (of course). Thank you!
really good video! I hope you end up making one on the run game
Yes. Please do the run game next.
Great content. Still a little bit dense for me but then again I understand cricket, soccer and rugby.
Absolutely loved this (watched it twice in a row) - please do the run-blocking version of this as well!!
Great video helps me out tons as someone who wants to understand the xs and os of football having never played the sport myself
The breakdown is great, I learned a lot from the football info before the protection stuff. I need to find out if you have more of these for other concepts and knowledge!
This was super helpful in understanding defense! And yes, please make more!!
Really awesome video for me, as ive played flag, but never tackle football. Fills in a nice piece of missing knowledge of thr game. Thanks ThinkingFootball!
love learning more about the game that takes up my Sundays! Love this type of content
Great video!! Love how you hit pros and cons for every tactic
Really enjoyed this content, I learned a lot! I'd be interested in watching more of these educational-style videos
Beautiful analysis! Thanks.
Great video, really insightful and well explained. I learned a lot watching it - thanks for making this video!
DO MORE VIDS LIKE THIS!!
one on blitzing could be sweet. Could break down Todd Bowles strats.
The other one i loved was BIG ON BIG, with uncovered big settling checking inside out for mike and sam. There are literally thousands of ways to skin a cat
Also QBs can help identify possible blitzes with hard counts. Giving lower skilled O-line players a better chance against dominant Defensive line players that need a half second pause to not draw a penalty
great teacher! thanks for posting
Excellent video, and so many perfect examples.
Man I love these vids, turning my casual self into an actual informed fan on how my team sucks at this
Brilliant, absolutely perfect. You are doing remarkable work
my chances of finally beating my son at Madden just got way better. Thank you!
Thinking Football got me feelin' like John Madden watching this lol, excellent video
Your videos are top notch!
Add the run game that was very helpful to me. I'm use this if formation for determining games this season.
I’m new to football, very informative
great content man, perfect level of depth
Came here for the "Duhh dey shud sind dis videyoh too dah (insert team name here)" comments:
So far only found one. I am pleasantly surprised 🙂 Good job keeping it serious.
I would enjoy some videos on run fits and coverage schemes as well if you planned on more like this
Great, and helpful explanation of PassPro!
Great video young man!!!
Definitely make one for the run game! This was an awesome video.
Run breakdown vid please - this video was amazing
Great video. Sorry informative. I just subscribed and I'd love to see a video on the run game. Keep up the great work
Great explanation! I’ve always wondered if defenses can read play action just by the fact that the line starts to drop into a pass pro pattern instead of run block
Keep making these types of videos
Love the breakdown and explanation love the videos keep up the amazing work!
Really insightful! Thanks for making this!
this was great, please make one on the run game!!
I love how like 1/4 of all the protection clips are against the Giants and Wink Martindale
He makes you cycle through every protection - so useful to watch when I was hunting for clips, you don't know how long it took to find all the right examples
