A lot of things look good on an academic's blackboard in terms of the actions that need to be taken. It's almost like a football coach, when you draw the X's and O's: Every play that is chalked on that board goes for a touchdown. Well, there are a lot of yards to be made between the line of scrimmage and the touchdown.
Quote examples
Le'Veon Bell
American Athlete
In football, when I break the line of scrimmage, I see a player in front of me, a defender, and already in my head I'm thinking, 'I'm going to make him miss.' So I'm already looking at the next defender like, 'OK, how can I set this guy up to get him out of position, too?
Quote examples
Herm Edwards
American Coach
College has become a wide-open game - a lot of short passes, quick passes. Then you go to the pros and it's a whole different ballgame - things are happening faster, the patterns have to be more precise. Getting off the line of scrimmage is more difficult.
Quote examples
Gordon Hayward
American Basketball Player
I think playing with no fans would be pretty wild. It would almost be like a scrimmage at training camp. You'd have to bring all of your own energy. Home-court advantage is pretty much thrown out the window at that point in time.

I want to learn more about the game as a whole and about the finer points of technique across the line of scrimmage. I want to learn more about coverages and blitzes so I can kind of see the game before it happens.

Calvin Johnson
American Athlete
Whatever you want to call it, they have all these names for these coverages, I've seen them. Like those linemen coming out to jam me on the line of scrimmage. A lot of crazy stuff.

It doesn't matter if it's preseason or a scrimmage. I'm trying to have a dominant performance, whether it's preseason first series or whenever I get out there.

Mike Webster
The most important thing you want is for the man across the line of scrimmage to know your name when the game is over.

A lot of different things go into calling the run game - especially at the line of scrimmage.
