    When you see a running back get through the line of scrimmage without changing direction or slowing down, it's because the offensive line has opened a hole for him. You have to watch football for a while to understand how important linemen are. A team can't have a good offense without a good offensive line.

      A great number of these plays are instances where the defense is focused on preventing a short gain - most likely to prevent a first down. So the defensive backs lose their angle for tackling the runner.

    Teams usually don’t want to pass when they’re backed up like that because it risks a safety, so it’s a situation where both sides are playing the run aggressively. When the defense is aggressive against the run, they pack in a ton of defenders close to the line of scrimmage. The problem with this is once you get past the first wave, there’s a TON of open space. That’s why on these long runs you see the RB make one move and then there’s no one to stop them.

    These are fun. But to me... as someone who played as an inside lineman on Offense and Defense... Domination is when a team can sustain a pure run play drive.
    When you can send a runner up field, play after play - especially between the Tackles, and your opponent can't stop you. You have truly beaten them.
    A lot of people have forgotten the combination that the Miami Dolphins had in the early 1970's with "Mercury" Morris and Larry Csonka.
    There are plenty of other tough backs and teams, but you have to look at what the dolphins did - and when they did it to get a full appreciation of their domination.

    It’s honestly everything you mentioned mate. It is absolutely about skill and evasiveness plus speed from the ballcarrier. As well as often times just poor defensive play, not wrapping up and missing tackles. This will be difficult if you didn’t grow up consuming thousands of hours of tape. But the offensive creation and blocking patterns (the scheme) is worked on for countless hours in the offseason and throughout the year. And often you got to come in on Monday and forget everything you just learned to face a new defensive scheme in 6 days. Also try to watch the big boys up front. The offensive lines. You will see different types of double teams, mashes, pulling of the guards and tackles, pushing, holding extra. Watch the massive holes they often open up for the ballcarriers.

    The offensive line schemes for a certain gap in the o-line for the back to aim for and hopes to fool or muscle the defense out of closing that gap.

    Definitely watch the blocking pattern of the offensive line. You'll see flow to one side or splitting sides to create the opening for the runner. Then there's sometimes a lead blocker in front of the running back. They will go thru the hole first and block the 2nd line of defense. Then the runner has to usually make someone miss (unless the first 2 things went perfectly). Great teams will use the same blocking scheme for other plays .. confusing the defense.

    Others have noted that these are more the most dominant of the longest running plays, which I think you'll agree isn't as good a title, Kabir. However, this barely scratches the surface of all-time great RBs. What you watched here was a collection of greats mixed with very good RBs. They all took advantage of opportunities, but the second tier also benefitted from complete defensive breakdowns and/or dominant efforts by their offensive lines. So while a lesser RB can use the perfect opportunity to take it home on a long field, the greats didn't need as wide a window, and made their own way there.
    To get a better handle on the true killers, like Barry Sanders, you have to watch a compilation of the all-time great RBs. And if you do, I guarantee you'll enjoy watching it.

American football is all about teamwork & strategy - the players huddle together before every play to discuss & plan what the next move will be. Sadly, there are amazing players out there who end up playing for teams that just don't gel together, & their talents end up being wasted. Case in point on that - Barry Sanders, who played for the Detroit Lions back in the day - incredible running back, but the team around him could never work their way through the playoffs & get to the Superbowl.

    Nearly every one of these runs are the result of a combinations of things going right. It requires the following:
    - Near perfect blocking by the offensive line. In combination with some mistakes being made by the defensive line.
    -Elite speed and elusiveness on the part of the runner.
    -Mistakes made by the defensive secondary like taking a bad angle when they rushed the line of scrimmage.
    Again, it takes a lot of things coming together to create a 90+ yard run.

    It’s a mixture of both. Good offense to make the hole for you to get through, good blockers protecting you while you run, and you taking advantage of all of that, and getting down the field. Also, being really good at what you do on the field.

  • @b7grams
    @b7grams Pƙed 3 lety +1

    It's a matter of well-designed plays that open up holes at the first and second levels (the defensive line and linebackers) in addition to elusiveness and speed once the running back gets through the hole and usually finds himself in a one-on-one in open field against a safety or a cornerback. Also there are times where the defense loads the box (fully commits to stopping the run by putting a bunch of players near the line of scrimmage) and if a running back breaks through a hole there's no one in the secondary left to stop them. That's the reason for a lot of these 90+ yard runs since the offense is likely to be more conservative (run the ball) and the defense's main priority in that situation is to get a 3 and out and make the opposition punt from deep in their own end so that at worst their offense gets the ball back at midfield (great starting field position).
    Also to be fair, OJ Simpson as a football player was one of the best running backs in football history. As a person, yeah...

    A lot of these big runs where it looks so perfect and lucky, is because the offense has identified the defensive scheme. Maybe they're in a certain formation etc that they've figured out means certain defensive players will be moving a certain direction etc, so they set up a play that will exploit it. That and blocking assignments being carried out to perfection. Football is basically a giant game of chess.

    Long runs like this are a combination of several factors.

One of the other main factors usually is either poor tackling or poor pursuit angles from the defense

    One aspect of the plays that seems to be overlooked is the defensive schemes. Often, the coaches expect a run, and "stack" the defense close to the line of scrimmage. If the offense blocks enough players at the point of contact, a hole opens up and the only player left to stop the runner is the safety, who usually gets faked out. Many of the clips in this video show that. It's counter-intuitive to think that on these long running plays, the defense expected a running play. They just got outcoached.

    Many of these 90+ yard runs occur because the down and field position makes a pass play super risky. The offense (US spelling) just wants to squeak out a few more yards to give the punter more room. The defense, knowing this, has everyone up close to the line to stop the run. Almost all the time the defense limits any gain to a yard or two, or for no gain or even a loss. But, sometimes a small hole opens up for just an instant, the running back cuts through it and there's only one or two defenders, sometimes even no defenders, between him and the goal line.

    First there was two qb runs in that video the first one was by Terrell prior he was a qb for the raiders Olympian speed he was a track basketball and football star. He was never great but he had a respectable career.
    Also most runs like this end up being defensive breakdowns. If the defensive end doesn’t contain the edge and the wide receiver can hold the corner. Then the running back can get a good angle to split the linebacker and safety then it’s a foot race. Let’s say defense calls a 0 blitz man coverage and they make the defensive end stunt in. If the running play sweeps it outside naturally you could have the whole defense collapse in away from the ball and boom it’s a foot race.
    Now Derrick Henry and Marshawn lynch runs with the stiff arms and bully ball that is true beast mode plays.
