The way he’s waiting to make his cuts/breaks until right when they begin to turn their hips to run is why he’s getting so much separation. His timing is literally perfect🤯
He didn’t just change how receivers played, he changed how corners played. The standard techniques of that time weren’t enough to stop him, so everyone had to evolve. His footwork is so precise it makes him look like an alien.
Everything he do is so precise. In press you couldn’t even touch him. Breaking routes at full speed looking so smooth like butter. Breaking ankles of pro bowl CB or DB. His route running is so beautiful to look at. It’s art
He's not getting much separation at all. John Taylor was the one separating. Rice was generally covered like glue, especially when he faced #25 Eric Davis. Do you people realize that the guy in the light blue shorts juking guys to the ground was John Taylor, and Rice was the guy in the black tights who was rounding off his cuts?
@@отпирайте Anybody who calls Rice the greatest route runner is an absolute moron who never actually watched him play/doesn't understand route running. Rice did not produce because of his routes; he produced because of his ability AFTER the catch and the system he played in (which got him extremely favorable matchups/schemed him open), as well as his durability.
Puck Utubesux there’s plenty of footage of him creating tons of separation with his impeccable route running. He didn’t practice his routes every day for no reason, you fucking vegetable.
Incredible how he’s not the fastest but quick and Jerry knows how to plant and maneuver his self to the position he needs to be in. Jerry is and will always be special! Thanks Jerry for your great memories! I love his illustration that he puts on with his body that he’s going one direction and he’s not he’s going to another spot . Easy to see but hard to defend when your really out there on the ground with him !
Jerry Rice comes off that line of scrimmage like a rocket and that stutter step is ridiculous. He created so much space by being so consistent with no errors in his routes. The speed was underrated. No one has Hands like JR! The man caught bricks as a child.
U mean to tell me this dude prolly runs a 5 flat prolly and no one wants to put hands on him? What are they scared of ,Everyone wants to play 10 yards off? Nobody is gonna act like they can play DB
This is a thing of beauty. He made every route look as if he running a go route. His shoulder pad level was always leaning forward, and he never gave any hints to the DBs whenever he went into his cuts and brakes.
Make no mistake, there has been no other wide receiver before, during, or after Jerry Rice that matches his dominance. His combination of route running, running after the catch, work ethic, size, strength, catching ability, durability, mental toughness, and dedication to his craft put him head and shoulders above the rest. Records, honors and titles all point to him being the GOAT.
Jerry was certainly not the biggest, quickest, fastest or tallest receiver. A guy like Moss or TO and plenty of other's had more natural skill. But what makes him the GOAT is his PERFECT technique and footwork. Not only that once he got in front of you he just had a second gear where nobody could catch him from behind. I liken Beckham and the closest we will ever see to Rice but still Rice is in a class by himself.
Uh, no. Rice was a freak athlete. The revisionist historian morons have added another tenth of a second to his 40 time for every decade since he came out. In another 30 years, people will be saying he ran a 5.0. It's ridiculous. The guy was drafted 16th overall despite playing at a fucking division 2-AA school. Why? Because he was viewed similarly to how Moss was coming out in 1998.
Simply the GOAT. ULTIMATE, clutch player, team player, textbook fundaments, work ethic and commitment. He played NFL ball into his early 40s, and was able to suit up and play every week. A regular person couldn't play flag football much past 35 without pulled hamstrings, blown ankles and knees etc. When I hear people put Moss or Owens in his galaxy, it makes me want to puke.
@@noahross4044 This clip isn't my reference to his deserved status as GOAT. HIs entire body of work ON GAME DAYS, on THE biggest stages, for THE longest career of a wideout, remains my point. Simply the GOAT.
Dang Jerry Rice Wass an outstanding receiver. His route running was impeccable. to young to know about rice But watching this video validated him as the best all time for me.
look jerry rice caught 1700 passes 1549 in the regular season 151 in the playoffs and rice scored 230 touchdowns 208 in the regular season and 22 in the playoffs. come on
EtherealMind he actually ran 4,7 he really didnt have pure speed but on the field he was fast. And i think he did improve his speed as he grew older and peaked. Yeah rice's work ethic is insane. His teammates couldnt finish his training sessions. He trained his wr technique, ran the hill and lifted almost every day
All the 40 times people list on Rice are made up. The general consensus in the 80s was Rice ran 4.4. That's why he was a 1st round pick despite playing at a division 1-AA school.
He's a prime example of not having to be the fastest or quickest guy on the field. His ability to get around defenders and be where he needs to be when he needs to be there is why he's the greatest.
Look at those releases off press coverage, look at the arm and hand movement to break the press coverage. Watch the explosion the 1st 5 yards to get the db on his heels, he eating up those 10 yards. Dude is in his routes before the ball snaps...Small things like this is what makes a wr great.
No, he's not. John Taylor was. Taylor is the guy in the light blue shorts juking guys to the ground and creating major separation. Rice is the guy in the black tights who is rounding his cuts and covered like glue, requiring really good throws to complete the pass.
@@jtremaine23 That's because Taylor didn't politic for the ball the way Rice did. He was also primarily playing split end, and that system never involved the split end high in the progressions nearly as frequently as the flanker.
@@puckutubesux7356 Really? So you’re saying the Niners would do politic over picking the best players to win? Wow what a sheep! If it was politic, how did TO took over as #1 wr for the niners? Rice had to move on to the Raiders and made a killing there, in his 40s, over the younger Tim Brown. Rice is GOAT!
@@leenaluu5234 Actually, I'm glad you brought up Owens, because that proves my point. Rice's politicking delayed Owens's transition to the #1 role. He was clearly the best receiver on the team in 1998 and 1999, yet Rice bitched his way into getting way more targets than Owens, despite the fact he was 35 years old and coming off reconstructive knee surgery. Other players have actually said as much. You ever see the 1992 49ers/Bills game? It's the infamous "no punts game." Offense galore. Rice was knocked out of the game early in the 1st quarter with a concussion. The 49ers proceeded to light it up with Taylor and Mike Sherrard. That's just a sample of what could have been.
yes straight from Pete's' collection. I was at USC his first 4 years. The stories I could tell. Coach O peeing in his office trash container because he was to lazy to walk to bathroom...and that a cleaning lady would have to clean it up. Kiffin, Carroll, O, all a bunch of type A pigs. I walked away from a great job because I couldn't face myself serving those sh!itheads.
Uh, Taylor is the better route runner here, you absolute moron. Rice is covered like glue on most of these routes because he doesn't have any suddenness out of his breaks. His routes were so overrated it's hilarious. In actual games, Rice almost never broke a corner down one-on-one with a route to save his life; he either ran past someone or worked underneath against linebackers. Taylor, on the other hand, was destroying his competition in this video. Just look at the clip at 7:34 where Taylor destroys Merton Hanks 1 on 1. Rice couldn't have done that to save his life.
@JACK RINALDI The term, "double team," has absolutely no relevance to receivers in pro football. It's one of he most laughably irrelevant things people talk about. Newsflash: There are multiple receivers double teamed on most passing plays against man coverage. All "double team" means is the receiver's route will take him into the zone of a defender while he's facing man coverage. What do you think there are two safeties in virtually all coverages FOR? And Jerry Rice faced the easiest coverages of any star receiver in NFL history (unless you count these modern journeyman-caliber "slot" clowns as "stars") because the 49ers schemed him open so he would be running routes uncovered into the flats, drag routes against linebackers, running uncovered into holes in zone, or working against the team's weaker corner. And no, Calvin Johnson is the GOAT.
@JACK RINALDI That doesn't make you a better player. You can dive to the ground like a coward to avoid getting hit and stay healthier than guys who regularly break tackles, but that just makes you a worse player.
Jerry Rice is the worst route runner of the receivers in this video. Whenever he's matched up with a decent corner, they're right there with him. Eric Davis in particular is all over him. There's a reason the 49ers had to scheme to get him open. He either used his height to shield shorter corners from the ball or he was running underneath against linebackers and making his living after the catch.
The Db play back in the day was terrible. How you play off coverage ten yards away then immediately back pedal five more on the snap. Terrible alignment they was physical but that’s about it lol
Jerry would be an average receiver in today's nfl he was way ahead of his time but just average in today's nfl you put dehop or Julio or calvin the nfl back then an people would say jerry who?
They ran the ball more in Jerry's era and he still got the Most Receptions, Most Touchdowns and most yards. Not to mention in Jerry's era you were allowed to take a WR's head off. Safeties use to tee off on Receivers. Julio Jones and Calvin Johnson wouldn't last as long as they have in the NFL back then.
Wrong Buddy - these are 1on1 drills OL/DL are going against each other as well as the LB/RB its called 1on1's football is all about winning your 1on1's
I wish that today's generation of young wr's would watch this video and learn how to run precise crisp routes instead of worrying about some bullshit meaningless 40 time or some one handed highlight catch.
This would NOT cut it in today’s nfl. These db’s are playing him 10 yards off the ball. Kid’s are playing press in high school today. They are also making cuts using 1-2 steps. Jerry is chopping his feet on stop routes, using 3-4 steps. Wouldn’t cut it cuz. He was good in his time, but like anything else in life football has evolved. If you think I’m full of bs, go watch a modern player running routes. You’re already on UA-cam. It’ll be quick
Please. Nobody even runs outs or comebacks anymore. Route running is extinct. The current NFL is nothing but Texas Tech Air Raid garbage with shotgun and spread formation every play, with receivers getting whatever corners allow them to have on soft angle routes over the middle.
It’s a shame I wish we could see the PrimeTime matchups. I saw a video years ago now I just can’t remember who the ex player was but he said Deion use to get the better of them in practice. Deion is ten times more gifted and with that blazing speed it covers up for Jerry route running. 1994-95 Was arguably the best Prime ever as well as the best CB ever!
Technique terrible. I don’t know how they used to teach it back in the day but I don’t think any of these guys would be in the NFL today. Plus, 5 step drop backs for 5-10 yard outs, ins, hitches, slants? And the corners playing off 7-10 yards? These are situations that wouldn’t happen too often today.
Young Ton you’re smart, people hate to accept that the game improves so much, cb like jalen ramsey arent backing up that much and are jammin better. Idk the cb look really sloppy in the video
GUCCI GUWAP Thanks but it’s not about smart. These corners had the same technique that I had in high school. Hardly any. If this is an example of how they used to do it then the techniques have vastly improved. We don’t even have to say Ramsey, we could aim much lower than that.
Puck Utubesux These reserves and camp fodder wouldn’t make it through todays D1 camp looking like this. They are probably close to or just as gifted athletically but technique has clearly evolved. That’s the point.
ahhh.. the good ol' days of football BEFORE the million dollar babies when the CRACK of helmet to helmet contact got a standing ovation... Jerry Rice, Joe Montana, RONNIE LOTT, Don BeBe, Mike Singleterry, Lawrence Taylor... During my era, if you took out the Quarter Back you got extra slices of pizza at the victory celebration not penalized. Oh its a safer game now... well if you wanna be safe get a job in an office... 50's 60's, 70's, 80's & early 90's football = GLADIATORS, fast money, fast life. New Age Football = million dollar babies playing two hand touch - flag football.
Football practice is a situational format...sometimes you have to practice 3rd and forever...if you lined up tight man on man when it is 3rd and 17 then that would be the joke. Hmmmmmm.
I honestly don’t see what’s really special with rice Julio Calvin d hop all have better footwork. You guys must of forgot he had joe Montana and Steve going to make him great. Let’s not forget he used stick um
@@mr.wilson381 Imagine if Moss worked out like Rice. Imagine if Moss had the drive to win. Imagine if Moss wasn’t afraid to run across the middle. Imagine if Moss could run perfect route. Than I guess he could be the GOAT. But he couldn’t, so Rice is the GOAT!
@@mr.wilson381 Moss doesn't even come close to Rice, he just had freakish speed and leaping ability, but he only ran two routes and didn't block and gave up on plays all the time, Rice is a miles better football player in every aspect of the game, it doesn't matter if Moss had great QBs because he didn't work hard like Jerry and apply himself to being great at every aspect of being a WR, if you don't block and don't run after the catch, and don't run underneath routes then you are not a great WR, Moss is the most talented for sure but Rice, Owens, and Fitz are far better football players than he was. Why are you even hating on Rice you can clearly see how great he is from game and practice film and from the numbers, regardless of the QBs he had he was just a perfect football player
The way he’s waiting to make his cuts/breaks until right when they begin to turn their hips to run is why he’s getting so much separation. His timing is literally perfect🤯

Chad ran the wrong route many times. I’d see Carson walk up to him after throwing an Int and blast him for it. Often.
If you count to 12 in the at the pace that matches his running, Jerry catches the ball on the number 12 every time. That precision is amazing.

There isn't any music lol
It’s a shame I wish we could see the PrimeTime matchups. I saw a video years ago now I just can’t remember who the ex player was but he said Deion use to get the better of them in practice. Deion is ten times more gifted and with that blazing speed it covers up for Jerry route running. 1994-95 Was arguably the best Prime ever as well as the best CB ever!
i know it's practice but damn jerry making mugs look stupid.
Step on toes get up on the db
Who is #83?
JJ Stokes maybe
Those Corners Are Terrible Though
Technique terrible. I don’t know how they used to teach it back in the day but I don’t think any of these guys would be in the NFL today. Plus, 5 step drop backs for 5-10 yard outs, ins, hitches, slants? And the corners playing off 7-10 yards? These are situations that wouldn’t happen too often today.
Young Ton you’re smart, people hate to accept that the game improves so much, cb like jalen ramsey arent backing up that much and are jammin better. Idk the cb look really sloppy in the video
GUCCI GUWAP Thanks but it’s not about smart. These corners had the same technique that I had in high school. Hardly any. If this is an example of how they used to do it then the techniques have vastly improved. We don’t even have to say Ramsey, we could aim much lower than that.
@@Boxinggenius1 Most of the corners in this video were reserves or camp fodder. The only top ones were Eric Davis (25) and Merton Hanks (36).
Puck Utubesux These reserves and camp fodder wouldn’t make it through todays D1 camp looking like this. They are probably close to or just as gifted athletically but technique has clearly evolved. That’s the point.
All of them aint jerry rice

Moss goat
ahhh.. the good ol' days of football BEFORE the million dollar babies when the CRACK of helmet to helmet contact got a standing ovation... Jerry Rice, Joe Montana, RONNIE LOTT, Don BeBe, Mike Singleterry, Lawrence Taylor... During my era, if you took out the Quarter Back you got extra slices of pizza at the victory celebration not penalized. Oh its a safer game now... well if you wanna be safe get a job in an office... 50's 60's, 70's, 80's & early 90's football = GLADIATORS, fast money, fast life. New Age Football = million dollar babies playing two hand touch - flag football.
These routes are terrific but these corners are some ass
wtf? db's lined up 80 yards off? what a fucking joke.
Football practice is a situational format...sometimes you have to practice 3rd and forever...if you lined up tight man on man when it is 3rd and 17 then that would be the joke. Hmmmmmm.
Moss would have moss rice
I honestly don’t see what’s really special with rice Julio Calvin d hop all have better footwork. You guys must of forgot he had joe Montana and Steve going to make him great. Let’s not forget he used stick um
Moss all day WTF is this🤣🤣🤧
Rice also has three Super Bowl rings to none held by Moss...just saying
droneqb imagine if miss had Brady for just 5 yrs not to mention the Steve young years
@@mr.wilson381 Imagine if Moss worked out like Rice. Imagine if Moss had the drive to win. Imagine if Moss wasn’t afraid to run across the middle. Imagine if Moss could run perfect route. Than I guess he could be the GOAT. But he couldn’t, so Rice is the GOAT!
@@mr.wilson381 Moss doesn't even come close to Rice, he just had freakish speed and leaping ability, but he only ran two routes and didn't block and gave up on plays all the time, Rice is a miles better football player in every aspect of the game, it doesn't matter if Moss had great QBs because he didn't work hard like Jerry and apply himself to being great at every aspect of being a WR, if you don't block and don't run after the catch, and don't run underneath routes then you are not a great WR, Moss is the most talented for sure but Rice, Owens, and Fitz are far better football players than he was. Why are you even hating on Rice you can clearly see how great he is from game and practice film and from the numbers, regardless of the QBs he had he was just a perfect football player
