Default Thanks

It's my big board design. 1/2" = 1 yard on the playing surface. Total dimensions of the board are 68" x 35". The playing surface is interchangeable. Attached is a pic of the board.

Jerry...that was great video. I've seen many a coach curse that RB figure but in this case he used that stiff arm to his advantage just perfectly! But the second video was even better...I like yours son's reaction (or lack of enthusiam) for the Bills score against the Colts. Nice field and teams.

Hi,

One thing I don't understand on the first vid, your WR is hitting the defender, then is allowed to continue his run.

On the rulesets I readed (and try to follow as a newbie), when a defender hit a offense player (especially in your vid, with the "front base tackle rule" ), it's a tackle, no ?

Thanks your for the explaination



edit : seeing the vid carefully, it appears that the defender base doesn't really touch the WR base, is it why you do not declare the tackle ?

That's exactly the reason. Almost all leagues, with maybe a few exceptions, only consider it a tackle if the bases touch.

I wasn't thinking about that at all !

It means that if I do for example a running back with a well designed arms position, I can make it almost unstoppable (if defenders "attacks" him from his front)

or use a "blitzer" ff.net figure, modify it to make a offense "diver" too...


Or, like in the vid, a widereceiver with an arm in the interior side of his gaming position...


A whole new concept for me

Frenchy
If your reciever or back is weak he may be pushed back instead of going forward.

My Corners are some of my strongest players and they would blow that reciever up!!!

Yes, you're right, but making a figure a certain way/position, I guess you certainly can make it more or less "tackling friendly"

But perhaps it's too far from the game spirit ?
