The midday sun shone, but its light was blocked by two A-gap blitzers. Leaning away from them to buy a crucial inch, the ball was launched out of danger, and found its intended mark. Secured again, it moved North one yard, then spun towards the sideline, and traveled 69 yards south along the Olentangy. A man in white, followed by a man in red, exits the scene. The ball is heaved. The camera pans. The man in red is gone. Two receivers crashed, one falling to the turf. But one still stood, and had...

Ohio State is onto bigger fish this week, but hey, Maryland still deserves a Film Review.

Under Center Run Game Historically, the Bills have been a fairly heavy under center team while the Chiefs spent very little time in non-shotgun formations. Formations aside, the Bills and Chiefs...

Hello, fan of an NFL team. MGoBlog excruciatingly scouts every Michigan play, and scores them to inform our coverage. Since mi atleta es su atleta now, here we share what we're sharing. Quickly: Hoss. Draft Projection: Probably a Day 3 guy given most teams see him as a swing guard. He's got 4th round value on the right team, but is probably a reach there because so many teams won't be interested. 6th round is good value. He should get drafted, would be a steal to get him as a UDF...

Formation/Nomenclature Notes: OSU would line up their TE as a deep H-back which I called “F” so this is “Pistol F Wk,” meaning the slot receiver (H), is opposite the side the TE is on. Substitution Notes: Barrett came in for Ross on a few passing downs, probably to get a little more speed out there. Snap counts. Lexicon Note: I also started tracking “WRDIS,” which stands for Wide Receivers Doing Insane Shit, because OSU’s three dudes were making incredible plays against coverage th...

Label Notes: Reminder that I’m combining all scores (except QB) in the charting. p=pass pro, y=YAC, c=catch, b=block for RBs, and route=route. It might be more than one or an odd number, in which case the higher one goes first, so if you see something like “Wilson(+3croute) that means Wilson got a +2 for a difficult catch and +1 for running a good route. Capital letters in the formations refer to skill positions: R=RB or tailback, S=superback (2nd RB), Y=inline TE, F=off-line TE, X=split end...

The Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens are both depleted due to injury and/or illness, but will rekindle the rivalry in Week 13.

The Broncos’ offense has been abysmal this year. That has to change for Shurmur to keep his post.

Will the Broncos run more power in 2021? We break down the differences between the zone and gap schemes in this offense here.

Risk: Foot quickness will get exposed against explosive speed who can stress him upfield. Consistent issues with cross chop which is a go-to move around NFL. Stops feet too much. Needs to speed up and add variance to punch, and currently over-reliant on outside hand. Over-reliant on length. Pass pro may force him to guard, but use of hand issues will still exist inside. 3-Year Ceiling: Team captain and starting right tackle you can win with thanks to his power at the POA, mobility to reach an...
