re: Big Cat Drill

I literally laughed out loud.

I meant it as wear and tear on their bodies if they are doing it every single day at practice throughout the year. I don't see how that's so laughable...

I don't really see how a 5 second drill done once a week can wear the team out.

---

again, like I said earlier on, , I wasn't aware of how often they do it. If they do it every day at practice or not, I didn't have a clue. Figured they do and I think that would be a bit of overload... if not so be it.

You want fresh players who are ready. Practice plays, technique, and rest those legs.

this is what I was getting at. people took it as criticism of something without trying to get to the point. If its something that each player only participates in once a week or so then I guess it isn't so bad.

sweet post. I was ignorant about a topic. I admitted it in my first or second post. People think its more beneficial than not... Unlike most on this board I can accept being wrong. I definitely don't have any ego problems and the like

you came into this thread trying to bash the big cat drill and saying that NFL teams don't do it. You've yet to come up with a valid argument as to why it's bad for the players to be doing this drill.

Also lol if you think that drill poses a serious risk and gets players hurt

---

I just meant general wear on the body over the course of the season. Apparently they only do it sparingly per player...

dude. Just stop.

Speaking critically about a topic you admittedly are ignorant on is bad enough. Continuing to do so is just plain embarrasing.

---

I already admitted I was wrong. I was qualifying what I previously believed as to how the drill was conducted. Dude.

how the hell do you think the big cat drill is wearing on the body of a course of the season. C'mon on dude..

gotcha.

miles just does it at the start of practice with maybe 10 or so selected matchups. after each matchup is done they break out into position drills. it looks like he rotates through basically the entire team so 20 players per practice with 100 players means each player does the drill once every 5 practices.

Which means you get one chance that week to prove yourself.

I get it now I was reading earlier where people were so amazed Blackwell apparently son'ed Freak in it. I'd figure the guy 5 years older would dominate in that scenario
