re: Major Burns rundown of receiver after slipping in coverage…. Game Changing

Major props to that kid.

For getting beat on a 60 yard play? No major props; he needs to be running laps for that. Kelly made clear that Burns blew his assignment which was to get inside leverage. That is a very easy assignment for a safety. All you have to do is keep him from beating you to the inside. Burns brain-farted and failed. I promise you that Kelly isn’t giving him props.

You absolutely still correct the technique, but you lavish praise on that kid for not giving up on the play and giving everything he had. I hope you aren't in a position to coach or supervise anyone.
