How to Play Running Back in Football : The Correct Fullback Stance in Football

[PunchNugget]

IM GOING TO BE THE BEST RUNNING BACK IN THE WORLD!!!

[TheHitman3d]

i bet he's 5th string

[Go0nSquadProductions]

@TheBurninator50 did you just use the word "n00b" to describe something in a sport? Your a fucking loser, just because you made a fullback in NCAA dosent mean your a good football player

[TheBurninator50]

@Go0nSquadProductions You don't know me. Maybe Noob was a poor word choice for this situation, but you understand what I mean. He is not a real football player and doesn't know what he is doing. Why they would choose somebody like that for this video I'll never know. Probably the coaches son or something. To be honest, it really doesn't matter how many "points" you have on the ground as long as your low on initial contact.

[lumpkinjeremy]

4.3 40?

[LeoFaro100]

keep hitting 5

[Bonjii00]

that boy shakin like a bowl-o-jello!

[armykid567]

@Bonjii00 not really

[courtlandcd]

this is a horrid form he is too high and his head is down a linebacker would eat em

[idontnoapassword]

@courtlandcd his legs are extended to much keepin his but to high in the air. tilting his shoulders up and his head to the ground. your 3 point stance should be like ur takin a shit but you rock down and your hand should stop you from falling. thumbs up so everybody knows the proper form of a 3 point stance 

[secondjunk]

what the fuck are these tips so obvious. This is not an expert

[thenicelatino]

White boy runnin the ball? -____- smh.

[klined]

@thenicelatino

not funny

[misstsujisHAWT]

@thenicelatino i would run your ass over.

[thenicelatino]

@misstsujisHAWT Hahahahah okay ....sure

[thenicelatino]

@misstsujisHAWT Says someone who plays World of warcraft

[misstsujisHAWT]

@thenicelatino your point?

[emazz54]

@thenicelatino white boys dont turn and run away when they see a hit comin

[thenicelatino]

@emazz54 Hahah where im from white boys dont even see a hit comin cuz theyre mostly on the bench.

[delany61]

@thenicelatino is that right he made a than er video trick with a black fullback i guess thats not the starting back if you have to get WHITE PLAYER to show the right sance and besides my white ass benched you bunch of niggers all the time when i played back,qb,fullback,halfback,etc

[TheBurninator50]

@evidentmagicman Hilarious.

[TheBurninator50]

So...what's the advantage of the three point stance for fullbacks? You said it was more difficult to explode out of that stance and easier in the two point? Why don't all backs come out of the two point if that's the case? There has to be some advantage. Oh...and the football player in this video is a n00b. Looks as though a stiff breeze might knock him over. See how he explodes out of his stance straight into the PE shuffle?

[crazyguy11233]

@TheBurninator50 not all fullbacks come out of the 3 point our fullback stays in 2 point but he gets the ball alot i also play fullback im his backup your only in the 3 point when yor in power i in power i you block alot more and get the 2 or3 times a game on fb dives or fb angles

[primosek1]

that's not even a correct 3point stance there

[10henris]

WOW.......Bad.......Look at the message coach

[10henris]

WOW.......Bad

[suzukirm33rider]

the coach is steping with the worng foot.

[cactusboy3000]

no pause at 0:52 hardcore fuck

[iheartsteezeskiing]

i find it 10 times easier to explode out of the 3 point stance...

[gtaj03]

@iheartsteezeskiing yea just use the weight

[SWAMPskate]

@iheartsteezeskiing agreed but my coach dont let me

[bigace511]

@iheartsteezeskiing yup. and look at his footing. if one foot is back just a tad. your "explosions" from a 3. stance are incredible.

[example1026]

this video sucks, if you guys really want a fullback video, ive played the game for almost 11 years, message me if you want to see a good video

[wwscarface5793]

the goddamn words are in the way i cant see

[HaZyHaLiL]

pause at 0:47

[randomperson8225]

@HaZyHaLiL XD

[lildood24]

@HaZyHaLiL haahah man dat was funny

[DTlucky13]

@HaZyHaLiL lol

[tizzy705]

@HaZyHaLiL gdam that shit was funny ass hell

[MusicalEutopia]

@HaZyHaLiL That was too hilarious.

[R3DST4R1]

@HaZyHaLiL haha

[TheSnowking21]

@HaZyHaLiL

hilarious.

[ismialdx5]

wth is this?.... his feet is misplaced..... he not even in da right stance... smh

[speranzayaya]

he is completely lopsided, his head is down, and after he stayed really high

[gunsman111]

Fullback is easy once you get a hang of it i played fullback for the chargers in kinsmen it was pretty easy my coaches let me go in a half back stance (a two point)

[Dmlax1000001]

i second everyone comments...he had everything right until the kid dropped in a 3pt stance that looked like he was falling over into a d line stance

[pkoops54]

who runs same arm same leg? This guy is a tool box

[bouwadi3]

both stances too wide. not looking up. too much wieght on hand. not square...I would love to be a linebacker with this coaches fullback in front of me...40 tackles a game

[1slowassEF]

If you want to play FB do not watch this video. The information sucks other than him "saying" to be in a 3-point stance and exploding out of that stance.

He never demonstrated how to properly be in a 3-point stance: 1) Get a good base. 2) Square or level your shoulders. 3) And keep your head up.

[bronxni99a85]

wen i played full back da coach let me get in a running back stance lol

[THEIIFS]

also, a little move i like to use that no coahc or video will teach you, officials usually dont look at full backs for penalties. try meeting a linebacker in the hole with both your fists in his chin. i garuntee a decleat, sometimes you can know em out. try it, its a good fullback move to a dick linebacker

[Catch22East]

Aye fo'real Im gon try that shit..lol

[THEIIFS]

for all you guys wanting to play fullback, most colleges run a spread, so you are rarely going to be in a 3point unless your on the goal line. in high school like many of you are i was 5'11 200 as a junior but i maintianed a 4.5 40. the speed has to saty up as a fullback. if your trying to play fullback at the next level, just work you ass off in the wieght room, on the track, and mroe important than anything dont breakdown and wait on a defender meet them fullspeed

[xslash86]

Im 13 n wanting to play fullback next year and im transferring from a TE(i was 12 when i played that) and i read ur comment earlier about the fist thing,ha imma try that if i get fullback.got any tips?

[creambeam]

[lildizzle6]

[hewenthatway]

[ftrmvp211]

fuck that im 5'4 154 middleline backer ill kill everyone who wrote a comment heart matters but high does come n 2 ply every now and then

[MegaPain11]

hoecentral you might be telling the truth but it sound true because im 6'2 and im 215 and i run the 40 in 4.0 and im a HB and im on varsity plus im a freshman in high school

[domsantiagogow]

I'm a 5'7 145lb freshman fullback. I run a 5.5. Im starting outside linebacker and fullback but we have 96 players on my team. I'm slow but noone can bring me down lol

[hoecentral]

my first year in highschool frshman 6'3 305 and i run a 4.8 im a fullback but i rolled my ankle in our 5th game so now i have to get back on the line but i willbe running it again in the 7th through 10th game

[DiStUrBeDHuSk3r]

dammmnnn fat ass

[HeAvYcHeVy701]

das right u dont gotta be huge u just gotta have a huge heart for da game im 5'5 250 lbs and im a d-tackle id love to play against dis dumb fuck

[j0ey96]

jesus christ no offense ur a butterball

[xslash86]

u know how far small size and a big heart gets u in football?haha...

[Tmatcek]

fuck this pussy id kill this dude. i play football but hurt my acl..im only 5'3" and 135 puonds, but my short and stockiness is a great advantage, plus in our offense all we do is run, so im mostly a runningback, so i dont have to be huge, just have heart

[bloodbea5t]

Im 5"11 180 lbs freshman... 2nd string fullback on a 5a varsity team... 4.9 40 yard dash too. We run the flexbone so thats why im at fullback because fullback mostly gets the ball out of that formation so i dont have to be huge.

[IMATRUEBLUEDEVIL22]

get on the line.

[chargerfootball24]

this kid is really awkward looking. throw him on the line haha

[swizzy36912]

first year highschool im fullback :)

6'2 200 pounds :P run the 100m in 11.7 secs too

[hamzygasse]

lol no one answered me

[sqauklikeanowl]

im 6'1 5.0 40 meter dash and about 190 pounds first day of school today

[malex305]

u mean 40 yard dash right?

[forsakenx1]

i also attend parkville high.

[forsakenx1]

Im a 6'0 foot 210lb fullback and i give very good blocks through the holes its not hard just explode off the line and make sure your head up and i hit the shit out of linebackers and even corner backs.

[malex305]

i play fullback but i hate blocking. and how do i do the right form to give a good ass block.

[RayFinkle45]

you have to square the defender up, deliver a shot and then extend your arms and keep your feet moving. make sure not to whiff a block or lunge at someone and totally miss

[THEIIFS]

i play fullback in college, dont squart the defender up and break down you lose your power. plus extending your arms will make it obvious if your holding. run at the guy as fast as you can and throw your face into his chest and explode into him like doing a power clean. remember you have the advantage. sometimes you might miss, but by trying to square him p you lose momentum and power.

[maskman6969]

that's some good advice right their

[tmb00x]

yo man, where u play?? im looking to walk-on in college as a blocking back of some sort.. and im wondering like what r some of the physical features that r expected in a fullback.... i played offensive line in HS and we ran a wing T so our full back was like another running back so i really have no idea....

[THEIIFS]

i play at wnmu, i dont suggest coming here its a spread offense which blows. but physical features that will help, basically just being 220+ but in good shape. i suggest working on speed, arms shoulders neck legs and back. alot of people think just strong legs will make you dominate as a fullback but your taking on 300+ pound dlinemen with your whole body. just legs wont give you enough power. speed and shoulder strength is what gives the big hits

[tmb00x]

thanks for the info

[xSizzle1]

thats very true thanks

[ZBoss25]

Im a 5' 10 195 pound fullback for Grand Ledge High School and i WRECK linebackers all day long!!!! 4.63 40 also

[loudcp]

im a fullback 4 my 5-6 grade football team

[hamzygasse]

im 5'7 and 132 right now what should i play in freshman year ? ii have pretty good speed prob runa 40 in 4.7 4.8 Good hands and Ok throwing good tackleing [Im in 8th Grade ]

[heavtmetalmegadeth]

i'm 15 and i'm a fullbackk..

i'm like 5'7 and weigh like

maybe 124 pounds lol...

my coach is dumb =D

but i do got mad speed lol

[SuperQuin2010]

I'm the fullback on our middle school team but the fb gets the ball on all our runs

[hcterps46]

hes supposed to stay low

[drudawg911]

love my O-line love my FB and love my recievers (when they block!)

[MrOutdoorProductions]

what position do you all think i should play im 5 ft 7 140 lbs and ok speed

[bleeditout0987654321]

LineMen do right or left tackle

[bleeditout0987654321]

also depends how old u r ig ur 15 or older do fullback

[hcterps46]

left bench

[malex305]

tight end

[41shaki]

wat position do yall think i should play im 14 bout 2 be a freshman in high skool i way 209 pounds about 5'11 or 6ft got ok speed

[AlexPR15]

offense: maybe tight end or blocking fullback

defence: d-end, linebacker

[shenikabaddest]

d-end, linebacker, and fullback but u got to be physical and aggresive because u have a pretty good size

[9Saints25]

woah im 14 first year highschool im about 6'1 and i only weigh 160

[cavs803]

the three point stance has its negatives and positives . its still the tradition way to play fullback but two point stance u can line up staight and not tip the defence. the three point stance is about momentium

[chaney5000]

am a full back in high school are coach played in the NFL he never said stuff like this he said keep your stance power the burts ther the line

[thewintersbreath]

...its not hard to fire off in a 3-point stance...its all about leg power and momentium.............if ur fullback is slow outta the 3-point its because his legs arent strong enough...or just he's slow in general....im fb....and im fast as hell outta the 3-point O.O

[VEARKING]

how is 35 a full back and running back and wide out

[hankeybillfred]

running back: 20 - 49

[99babysapp]

i play fullback

[jackojacko17]

this guys is shit every thing he is sayin is the wrong way

[tworkingit]

it depends, if a FB is top heavy like the guy in the video and moving more than 5 feet before contact then 2point is fine.

[natedogg313131]

the 3point has more explosion...but this guy is a reet

[AUMSHARADET]

that shit was stupid.....i hated three point, its dumb for a fullback, both backs should be in two point. sounds weird but it works

[makk333]

Thats how Tennessee Titans do it.

[kontraz83]

@makk333 and look at them now

[quest1120]

A fullback goes from a four point stance if hes smart. You tend to tell D which way you are going by your lead arm if you don't. Power and Explosive speed is the way you lead a tail back first considering you are lined up 2 yards closer to the ball. If you can stay ahead of him you don't need to be a fullback.

[kema702]

this coach is a dum ass

[MrxSnowman]

Coach has the wrong techniques. Don't learn from this. EVERYONE that plays football should know that you lead with your direction foot first.

[comicfanartist1]

not in a three, in a three (especially if ur right handed) leading off with the direction foot will throw u off balance and itll take longer to gaing speed. in a two point ur right tho:)

[WrestleTube]

The funny thing is that I'm a Defensive End/ Fullback and I also tried some Halfback. This guy is incorrect about Halfbacks having a better push off than Fullbacks in an upright position. I could shoot out of my Fullback stance like a rocket. But, standing up not so much.

[kenno09]

I agree.

[tworkingit]

it depends on wether you are top heavy or have lower centre of gravity.

[VHARP]

lol dude came off sorry as fuck lol

[ghostwawa]

wtf this fullback is shit....hes a real wuss for sure

[CaffineFreeUYA]

this kid looks like a pussy

im not baggn on him, just saying

he could be a beast, but i wouldnt know

he just looks like a pussy

[davidthefat]

LOL I look like a freaking beast but since its just my freshman year and first time playing this season, not much of a beast

[PetersNumber18]

my friend played fullback and the running back fingered him and then he farted and the running back threw up

[rodman332]

LMAO

[WrestleTube]

LMAO

[Brendan2080]

@PetersNumber18 What? lmfao

[Punk4Life408]

I would pop that fullbacks ass most fullbacks in highschool are pussys but some will pop you

[soooTyLeR]

im pretty sure every fullback in my league could run you over..

[Punk4Life408]

unnless its a D1 college I dont think so

[soooTyLeR]

our fullback 2 seasons ago is a redshirt at LSU right now.

Harts runningback is going to stanford. Their linebacker/fullback is a freshman at UCLA right now and manuel white UCLA and Washington Redskins old fullback is from Valencia... is that good enough for you?? thats only fullback/running backs. we have 4 quarter backs in the NFL right now too so should i start there too?

[iljrr808]

they all suck tho, haha

[csupsx]

Look you bunch of wanna be fags hiding behind your key board speaking ebonics. This is just a training video. You guys are probably little dudes who were popular in high school and now your 45 drinking beer and hot wings dressing your fat asses like you are 16 trying to act the part so get a life

[koreanpakistan32]

im still in highschool still playing football lol guess ur wrong bout one person

[djhandy45555]

he run up to me like tht and den imma just cut block his big ass

[trickedoutmedia]

you don't block a full back you dipshit

[Kolcan42]

wow im an outside backer and i wud destroy his ass i wud be on his QB or tailbck before he got his hands up and even if i did make contact with him i wud blow him up cus he wasnt low at all

[AFmodel92]

your shit is weak son. slow off the count and your stance is terrible. I bet you get beasted every day in practice by your LB or your tailback is running over your slow ass

[yoyobuck]

my stance is way different ive never seen any fullback in that stance WE R NOT LINEMEN

[PIMABOY]

are you serious? the 3-point stance is the fullbacks home. it generates their power and speed.

[koreanpakistan32]

totaly agree i get mre power in th 3 point stance

[ChargersLVII]

Get out of Pop Warner and you might.

[treetoptrip]

i play fullback and that stance is freakin horrible!

[RjRi0t96]

I'm a fullback from Woodmere middle school and my stance is way better.....

[run3g0d]

i always learn when u do 3-point u put ur head up.

[fresh19356]

hey iam a fullback for sothside and thats the worst stance i ever seen lol and why would he come out of his stance blocking with his hands is he stupid....fullbacks are not linemens get it threw your head

[PIMABOY]

yea but they have to get their hands on the defender in front of them to block for the ball carrier.

[koreanpakistan32]

fullbacks are pretty much lineman with speed and that can run /catch the ball its pretty much a skilled lineman lol tho lineman need their own special skills too

[Ice3422]

i disagree, it all depends on the type of offense, all nfl offenses have fullbacks that are nothing close to a lineman, but very close to the tailback or halfback just bigger

[koreanpakistan32]

well i agree with u in the nfl its not the same but for highschool fullbacks thats how i picture them and they are mostly like that coreect me if i am wrong though i dont know it all lol

[usctrojanfootball]

accually bud its easier to explode out of a three point stance, you all ready got your feet planted and your momentum forward

[Coltino33]

ok ur a loser ur goin no where in ur life omfg i mean it matters for linemen more u camel duh

[Ansgi65]

basically,hes telling you how to run

[bleach4life101]

ok this is good technique...but it sounds so gay...going up and down, exploding out, coming out..i think he should choose different words

[brycet93]

wow that guy looked so gay when he went out....like a homo at the gay mans outlet....lol

[doster52]

thats pathetic. I played DT and fullback and won 2 state titles. I would love if every full back was that shitty. kill shots

[dylan9reagle3]

0:28 is a terrible fukin stance

holy shit

and that kid is fuckin stupid

u dont block as a full back with ur hands

[RockThrowers]

im a linebacker/fullback and I don't usually get into a three point stance but when i do I'm not as sloppy as this guy and I can explode out of the stance but sometimes slip

[krazyA011]

thats an o-line stance.

[shinjiyasuno]

i'm a kicker/punter and i can do better than that shit

[rcowboy4]

wtf was that? im not telling someone what to do but teach by example

[HKingHofKingsH]

All he did was stand up and jog, dumbass doesn't know what explosion is.

[kutiehottie]

i am a fullback/Tailback and i dont use the 3 point stance when im in fullback, takes too long for me to break through the hole

[ShawnMASTAGibbs]

that kid is in the worst fucking stance.....

[bigesmals2121]

Yeah his stance is one of the sloppiest ive seen. feet pointed out leaning all his weight on his hand, looking at the ground... a shame

[Cookiemn694]

fucking slow shit

[coleisdope18]

his feet were too wide(linemen stance)

[lStakl]

well look how overweight that guy is
