[QUOTE="tech_wreck47, post: 650200, member: 2346"] I guess we are arguing two different things. The point of ibeeballins post was not about the play being exactly the same but was to show how Lynch was able to put is foot in the ground without losing much if any momentum at all and how Cottrell rounded his run off when he had the same opportunity to put his foot in the ground. I do disagree that you would lose to much momentum by planting and turning up field, it’s all done in one motion and in stride when someone is able to do it, and there is no force against them. And that’s the point. the main point of this thread was to see why Cottrell is not getting the ball more. The point of the video was to show he doesn’t put his foot in the ground and turn up and he doesn’t have lateral quickness. Dude is fast as all get out, and is good at what he does. This system however is not the best system for him. As a RB you need to put your foot in the ground and turn up field on stretch zone plays, you need to have kinda that false step when you get the ball and your reading your blockers etc. that’s one reason Mason has done so well, when he gets the ball behind the LOS he’s able to have that little false step or whatever you want to call it before he takes off and makes a cut. regardless I’m glad Cottrell is on the team, and he brings a good bit of value to the team.
