 Alright everybody what is up welcome back welcome back to another video in today's video. We are going to be looking at a film study of my favorite player in the league Leonard Fournet and you know if you've watched the three previous videos you'll know why is my Favorite player, so I'm not going to get into it. I've talked way too much This is 10 minutes long and it's called film study how Leonard Fournet is Statistically having his best season yet, and I believe this was after maybe week number five week number six So it's not going to show us everything But it's going to show us enough and it was the only video of this type that I could find so with all that being said let's get into it In 2019 is already statistically having his best season so far through five games He's had 512 yards, which is nearly a hundred more yards than he had all of last year in 38 less carries He's also averaging 5.4 yards per carry, which is way up from his 3.3 yards per carry last year and still Significantly up from his 3.9 yards per carry in his rookie season But it's even more interesting when you actually watch the games and see how he's getting those yards because it's not he's getting Five yards every carry. It's actually quite the opposite probably most notably his start against Tennessee when he had 66 yards and 15 carries, but he had a long of 69 yards Did you just hear that 15 carries but 63 yards from 15 carries, but his longest run was 69 yards Which means for 14 of those carries he went backwards, and I remember watching that game. I watched the whole thing It was torturous he had a long until he had this run of 69 yards Meaning in the other 14 carries he got a total of negative three yards That's kind of the way this season has gone for for that It seems like he's very much a boom or bust running back But let's get into why that is like on this play first Let's just take a look at what Jacksonville is doing if you notice they have an extra offense alignment a tight end and a wide receiver Right over there So clearly this is expecting to be some sort of a run with a half back in the back field and three of your eligible Receivers looking as though you're gonna block this is almost a guarantee that this is probably a run to some degree And it is they're all gonna go out the block those three panthers right there and really panther You're gonna want to take a look at that's the guy who could potentially make a play here That's the strategy from Jacksonville is they're gonna have a lot of guys in protection and try to just guarantee That it's gonna be at least a solid game at least that's their hope But as you see when for that takes his hand off one guy isn't able to make their block and another guy's He would run in and make the play and there was really no chance of for that game yards and that one Which is why he just got the ball back What the hell happened there the sort of mass protection is a great way to make sure you don't lose yards How there is a massive hole there We're not a soda best way Hmm, okay, so yeah that that that defender up here really did make the play the sort of mass Protection is a great way to make sure you don't lose yards however It's not a soda best way to make sure that you can yard just simply because there'll be more defenders in the box If you have see on another day, that would have been complete and utter daylight He would have got through it would have been him against the secondary but Not today guys blocking. That's also why sense Leonard for that entered the league Nobody has faced more stack boxes than him percentage wise So how is he still able to have a five point four yards per carry despite the fact that so many of his runs are seemingly going for one or two yards That is a good question. I would try and answer it myself, but I'm gonna let you answer it Well, it's with plays like this What you're gonna see is that Jacksonville is gonna have their left guard and left tackle double team that Carolina Panther right there And then they're gonna have their tight end move up to block a linebacker right over there So you might be a little bit confused about the fact that the tight end is gonna move to the inside to block a linebacker because now You're probably thinking well who are gonna block the two Carolina Panthers players who are on the right side of the screen But they're actually gonna pull a couple guys over they'll pull a tight end and also the right guard over to the right side Of the screen and those will be the two guys that'll be making those blocks But really what I want to take a look at is watch learn from that and really what I watch is just see how he's gonna start off Slow to make sure that the tight end and the right guard have the time to move over to the right side of the screen But then watch when he accelerates. It's like he just turns on a switch and even though there was some contact That's it. That's a lovely counter move over. I haven't seen I actually haven't seen a counter like that Because one of the only counter moves I've seen this year was Christian Wade for the Buffalo Bells in the preseason Anyone with updates on how he's going? Let me know in the comment section below But Christian Wade did a counter, but it certainly wasn't like that He basically just jogged to this side and then grabbed the ball and then and then ran the other way Whereas that was a proper, you know step a proper stick stick your foot in the ground and go and Yeah, I mean he he has clocked the fastest speed in the NFL for for two seasons in a row I believe in and so with with those stats on hand Yes, he can drop the hammer and accelerate at any time once he sees the opening and I mean, let's watch that play again It was it was quite beautiful Green but then watch when he accelerates if she let's see those in the right guard and see those two guys come across So it is green so Okay, so these two are coming across. I've got these two here and watch when you He takes one so this fella takes the other guy perfectly And we've got some daylight. It's like he just turns out But he's still have the time to move over to the right side of the screen But then watch when he accelerates, but he still had to cut inside behind this blocker here He just turns on a switch and Then had to think pretty damn quickly to bang another step in although he didn't get past this number 47 And even though there was some contact he has the power to power through that contact and gain as many yards as possible So I showed you a bust, but those are the booms. He can definitely have some high-flying plays You can have some good runs and that play was an example of a good run And that's honestly kind of just how the Jacksonville Jaguars running game works for that isn't type of guy who relies on his footwork Although his footwork is not terrible. He definitely is a power back He's the kind of guy who puts his head down and tries to run over guys and certain systems That's not a great thing to have you like guys who are more finesse guys But it all depends on your system and then this or that who can just lower the shoulder and deliver ahead But like this plays a good example of what I'm talking about where first is gonna be those blocks right there Nothing really too fancy going on There is a double team with the left guard and center, but the left guard will get off the double team and block a linebacker And so at that point it will be all one-on-one matchups But you might notice that I left the tight end who is gonna be on the left side of the screen I didn't actually put where he's gonna be blocking yet And that's because at first he's gonna block that Carolina player right over there But then it's gonna move up to block the guy at the second level He's doing that just because it's not supposed to run through the left side of the screen However, it actually is gonna end up being around the left side of the screen And since for that realizes that on the right side of screen, there's not too much going on But on the left side of the screen, there is some space But of course there it is that panther who is supposed to be on the left side of the screen Who they kind of just didn't worry about not expecting it to be running that direction And also there's gonna be another panther who just he didn't get blocked too well But it looks as if for net is about to bang his right foot in and literally turn 90 degrees and go out to the side here Or he's gonna straighten up and try and get through Let's see what happens. So those are two guys who could come in and make a play So for net there's several things you could do several things guys would do a lot of guys would try to you know Bounce to the outside see if they can get around that panther on the left side of the screen to try to gain a ton of yards But that's not for net style and that's not his game He just puts his head down runs forward and gains as many yards as possible It's a good decision I think you're getting the most yards possible in every play by doing that while I said he can be a boomer Bus type half back. Honestly, that's more often than not just due to the blocking concept more so than him actually just Creating a great play. He doesn't look for a home run He just happens to hit some sometimes when you have a blocking concept that has a lot of guys blocking It's also gonna force a lot of defenders to get into the area try to get inside that box But then if you can just get past that initial part that can result in some big runs Which is why we have seen him have so many big runs But also why we see him have so many rushes for no game But okay, you know, I mentioned that he can't have some big runs Well, let's talk about his big run against Carolina and that was this one What Jacksonville is gonna do is have their left tackle block the edge rusher No real surprise there But they're also gonna pull her full back up the block of that linebacker who's right over there from this point They could have their left guard left tackle double team and that Carolina interior linemen But really the key is gonna be whether left guard pulls around to try to block Luke Keekley Who is not an easy guy to block and you're gonna see that as while he is pulling around to try to block Keekley Keekley also has a chance to get into this play. This is not a perfect block It's not a terrible one either. He's gonna step up his left foot Mark here as of this instance this could result in basically a no-yard gain or this could result in a huge gain It's all gonna depend on can let him for that accelerate enough to get by Keekley and the answer is gonna be yes Oh, I mean he just keeps running him again pick up just a huge gain And even how I thought he stepped on the inside chance there for a touchdown But we're still able to get a huge run off of it That's what for next bringing to the table. That's why he was a fourth overall pick It's because he just has that great combination of acceleration and power again The Jacksonville Jaguar system of just run heavy just trying to get him to game two yards every play That's definitely debated that can definitely be considered not a great strategy However, it's it's a strategy Jacksonville good block by his wide receiver a really good guy to have in that type of system and also a key point of that is that just makes things easier on Quarterbacks it makes things easier for Gardner-Minshew if you have to focus on the running game and also another small little thing that is worth mentioning He's actually been somewhat effective in the passing game He's currently had a hundred and forty three receiving yards through five games Which is actually the best receiving yards per game. He's ever had at twenty eight point six The next highest was in his rookie season when he had twenty three point two receiving yards per game So there definitely has been a slight jump and honestly it does make see now There's some running backs who would have actually ran out there But no Leonard Fournette trusts to stay in stay in bounds keep the clock running keep the ball a couple more yards That's the kind of player. I like Like on this play for example, that's gonna be his route He cuts as though he's gonna be running in but then actually runs to the outside Relatively simple route and this is actually man coverage So the guy in charge of covering him will be that Carolina Panther right there It's a right when it's ball snap Notice what that linebacker is going to do who's in charge of covering for net here He's creating some contact which is legal since you're not past one yard of the line of scrimmage at this point And so if for net was just to continue to run through top half of the screen It would probably be bad news. However, since he's coming back to the bottom half of the screen This is actually a good situation for for net. He could potentially get open But again, what's gonna help him here is watch his acceleration Watch how he is able to a complete stop still to get up to a top speed quickly and easily out run that Carolina Panther And they're able to gain some yards and not play. It's nothing amazing, but it is something that's worth noting I mean, you don't need your half back to be able to play like a receiver There are a few guys who can't do it like Christian McCaffrey or Levy on Bell or David Johnson Just a list of few you don't need him to be that good All you need him is just to be a guy who can just be a fifth eligible receiver That's really what you need out of your back and he can do it. I mean again 28.6 yards per game That's nothing crazy I mean that on average if he continues the whole season that would put him at 457.6 nothing backbreaking by any means, but it definitely does help you That is a significant increase in your value and also as we all know stats don't tell the whole story Sometimes you only might have a few opportunities to actually be able to make a catch But he's made his catch on those opportunities This one's another one where the way the play is gonna work is that the receiver on a top half of screen It's just simply running a go-round. He just runs deep So that part's pretty simple and then Leonard for net he's gonna just run underneath him This way he's gonna force the Carolina Panther who's in coverage in the top half of screen deep and then Mint you can simply just hit for net and then for net should have some room to run and you'll least gain some yards this play Probably doesn't them go for a touchdown, but most plays don't you just have to gain some yards on this one And after the ball is snapped for that's gonna look backwards And so at this point he's just waiting for the ball if you see there's plenty of space You just have to wait for the ball to get there Then he has to turn around and run as quickly as he can but again This is one of those situations where he has to completely stop almost so there's no momentum He's gonna have to accelerate very quickly, but once again, that's exactly what he does. Of course he does I mean, that's why he was such a beast that LSU and that's why he still shows flashes here in Jacksonville I think there are a group of people that have kind of written for net off as a bust just yet I don't really see that happening. I personally would like to see him But if someone tries to tell me again that Leonard for net is a bust I feel like I feel you know someone actually did try to say that they did they said on my Instagram page I think I um Fuck what did I I put up a post when for net made a thousand rushing yards this season and someone came through and said Yeah, but he's on a four and nine team or something like that And I said and reply to that even better because of course it just makes sense, right? Thousand yards and a team that's not actually doing that. Well, it makes it even better Okay, there was another point When someone said he's a bust is he's done He's done and I just laughed I'm like, what the fuck you on about he's 24 25 25 his peaks not even gonna be until he's 28 and yes I do realize that statistics show that when a running back reaches the age of 30 after a few seasons in the league his stats seem to You know drop off a cliff, but we're not even there yet We're five years away, and I can't wait I can't wait to see Leonard for net become a whole of fame running back for the Jacksonville Jaguars. It's gonna happen Touch wood. So with that being said, let's continue But an offense that isn't this Jacksonville style offense, even though I do think that he's fits pretty well into that So yeah, that's kind of how I feel about learning from that I think this guy's talent is off the charts I know there's been some sort of issues, but just in terms of his talent I do think that he is very good do the Jaguars probably wish that they had Passionate homes or the Sean Watson instead of Leonard for that. I mean sure but at the same time that's Patrick yeah, well apparently they had a chance to draft Lamar Jackson last year and they passed up on him to draft someone else I don't even know who it was, but I mean that's that's Don't know about that Being a bit results oriented in terms of your thinking I mean Blake Bortles wasn't a total bust by the time that they drafted for net And they thought the running back could really help them and it also definitely did I mean, you know, if my old Jack isn't called down there There's a very real chance that they go to the Super Bowl and maybe even win it Although I'm not sure anybody is being filled you that year that team was just so good. So yeah, that's my thoughts on Leonard for net What do you guys think? Let me know in the comments. Yeah, that yeah when Philadelphia won they had Who was the running back in that game? It was um was a fella that I couldn't believe my eyes because he was talking about how he had three Super Bowl rings now and The time that I actually originally reacted to him was in his college career when he threw The punch she threw a punch in one of his college career games and it ruined his his reputation and Ligaret Blount That's the one you guys know the story. He killed it in that Super Bowl though, didn't he? What a legend below what do you think of Leonard for that because he is definitely an interesting player to talk about and of course as always Thanks for watching What do I think of Leonard for that? Well, you guys already know what I think of Leonard for net But what I do need to do is I need to see what this guy looks like because I've heard his voice and Yeah, I well actually you got a pretty decent looking channel there your thumbnails are killing it Fantastic thumbnails, but I want to see your face Holy shit, he's fucking killing it. Look at all these videos. Okay. Yep, Jackson Kruger You found something and you're running with it. That's exactly what I did when I found something that worked I fucking ran with it. It looks like he's He is absolutely killing the game right now. Well done, but I still want to see what you look like Wow, this guy's working like a trooper Respect Don't know how much film study one guy can do but respect He's doing hockey too. Oh come on, man Look at all of these fantastic videos. Do we see your face? Not that it really matters, but it does make a difference when you're watching videos like this You want to know who's actually making the calls, but anyway, look, we're not gonna find them big shout out shout out, mate and That's our look at Lenin for net Done for probably the year unless he goes and bulls out in these last two games of the season Which I'm really hoping he does but you know truth be told the Jaguars haven't really played that well this season And so I'm not I'm not expecting any miracles, but guys once again.
