On the Field
I get a look at my opponent’s captain as he starts the play,
His eyes are panicking back and forth,
He’s nervous.
See on the field we take advantage of that,
Nervousness leads to fear,
Fear leads to mistakes.
He starts the play with down,
I see the offensive line get down,
If they have a lean backwards in their stance,
9 times out of 10 their pulling.
He says set,
This is where the running back looks to the way he is running,
Or the quarterback looks to the receiver he is throwing too.
This is what goes on in the mind of a linebacker,
Before very play, of every game.
