 Fun day to day to talk about these big guys up front. The offensive line, this is why the fouls are able to run for over 200 yards because each guy working together. Now this is a staple in the Arthur Smith run game. Nothing but outside zone, but it's all what these guys do up front to create the space on the outside. Now one guy I want you to watch here is the center right here. Darman, he does a great job here of cutting off the backside. Now this is Algiers 41 yard run to the right side. Now what happens at the front, you're gonna get a nice double team up here and he's gonna try to get up on this safety on the backside. This guy's actually gonna shoot the gap and take his way, play out of it. But then you got Cal Pitts on the outside who does a great job of seal blocking here. You got Parker Hesse who's gonna seal this particular guy. Nice double team right here. Watch everybody working in conjunction together to make this play work. Now here's the play here. Here's the center I talk about Darman. This is the play they end up holding him. He's trying so hard to get up to this second level that you can see this defensive line is literally holding him. So he can't get up to the second level but he's gonna fight through it. He's gonna cut that off and do a great job of that. Now here's the great double team right here. Good double team here and Cal is gonna get up on this guy. You see the receiver, he's gonna get up on this guy. Here's the guy who's gonna end up having to make the play 25 yards away because they seal it so good on the backside. This O-line is creating so much great space. Boom, now he gets up on that second level. He will fight off him. Nice job of Cal creating that double team. Now we got a seal block on the outside. Look at this guy here holding off the edge and forcing him to stay inside. Good job of leveraging technique. Now we get to the corner. Look at this wall. Look at Cal pitch blocking on the outside. How good is that? And now you get all this room to run on the outside. Nice job of staying on his block on the outside. It's hard and now you got a long 41 yard run and the safety is the guy who has to make the play. Unbelievable job by the offensive line, creating a space along with tight end Cal pitch and Parker Hesse. This is what you like to see in a run game over 200 yards for the Falcons against the Browns. Thank you for joining me, I'm DJ Shockley. This is Falcons Film Review, powered by Microsoft Surface. Now with CP out for the next four games, you're gonna have to pick up the slack from other guys. Here's every Williams in the backfield now. This is what you call a counter play here. Everybody's gonna be look like they're working right, even the full back is working right. Avery Williams is gonna take a nice step this way and then he's gonna come back over the top. Marcus Mario does a good job of opening right and then he's gonna give it back on his backside for a huge cutback for Avery Williams. But the guy you wanna pay attention to again is the center, Darmie does a good job here of having a head up guy here. Now that's important because as a head up guy, that makes it really tough for him to pull around. He's gonna pull around and seal this defensive end, which is a great job of being athletic and at the point of attack here, boom. Nice job here of reach blocking here on the guy who's over the center. Here's your center coming around. Now he's gonna seal block this guy. Now remember, everybody's pushing, pushing right, pushing right. Look at the defense. Everybody thinks this is run right, run right. Good job of selling in here. But watch at the end, Avery's gonna come here and come over the top for this counter and now they're creative. But this is what's perfect about this play here. He is square. Let me go back just a little hair here. He ends up blocking this guy square. Now the importance of him being squares, it gives the back a two-way go. He can go inside, he can go outside, but because he's square, he gives the back a clear, concise way of way to run. And he ends up taking it inside and now it's another huge run. And even watch your receivers out here blocking the game. Drake London, your top receiver. Go on now, get him a knife ball. Look at this. On the safety, trying to come in and make the play. Now you have another huge crease. Receivers, linemen, dolemen on the outside. And now you got a huge run from Avery Williams. Another trio of these backs making a big play in the right game. All right, here it is again. Another staple, but just another way to get to it for Arthur Smith. Nothing but outside zone, but it's from the gun here. You got the back offset here in a strong spot. But also this offensive line does such a great job with technique and getting their butt to the side. And I'm sure exactly what I mean and why this play is successful again. When I watch this play get started, another outside zone. Now here's a double tee. But watch how he gets his butt pointed to the sideline so he can cut off the angle of this particular guy. Watch the backside of Jake Matthews get his butt to the sideline to cut off the angle of this defensive lineman here. And then you go get the back leading up here and take it on this linebacker which creates another crease. Boom, look at this, butt to the sideline. Butt to the sideline. Cutting off the angles of these guys so they can't have it. Now another play I want you to watch. I keep talking about the receivers blocking on the outside. Here we got Alameda Zakias right here at the top having to cut off a big defensive in. He has to have him out weighed by almost 150 pounds. But watch his effort. He does a great job of getting his hips and body into him and gets just enough to fight him off where it gives him time to hit this. So a great job on the backside trying to cut it off. But like I mentioned, good job of cutting that off. Good job of cutting this off. Now watch your full back come through here and seal this. Watch Elijah Wilkinson here. He goes up, he knows he has him blocked. So watch him go to the third level and try to get somebody else. Boom, nice job by your full back good crease here. Nice job of angle blocking here. Good job of sealing on the outside by your tackle. Now watch Wilkinson get up to this third level and try to get another block. Drake has a good block, has an angle on this safety. Now finish, boom, look at this good block here. Look at Wilkinson, your guard coming up to the third level getting the safety. Now look at the crease he has to run through here. Nice job of finishing the run here. Nice job of blocking downfield by his offensive line, tight ends, receivers. Everybody getting in on the action to help this run game get going. All right, let's go tall sweep here. Tall sweep to the right here. But what happens up front is what makes this place so successful. Here again, your big time receiver having to crack down on the defensive end gets the block. Now you'll get all these guys on the outside. You'll get pulling around on the outside by your tackle Kayla McGarry. You're gonna get a nice job of reaching, blocking here and then all these guys getting up to the second level. Play get started, watch the talls here, boom. Nice job of double, now you get up to the second level. Here's your guard getting up to the next level. And here's Drake London. Look at this, look at this, watch this block here. Boom, nice job, sealing that down. Nice job of Drake getting down. He freeing the tackle to get around the corner. You got your full back's gonna be leading up as well. Just watch everybody in conjunction together. Oh, this looks good when it's in motion. Boom, watch, nice block here by Lindstrom. The tackle's coming around for him. He's gonna peel up and knock him. Nice job here. Now look at the release here. Nice job of finishing through contact. Now we're up on the corner. You got a seal block here. Now you got easy access to run through. You got guys blocking on the backside. Just a very clear run here. It makes the now 13, 14 yard run on a particular play. Going back one more time just to see the blocks in full motion. Boom, nice job here, getting up the corner here. Nice job of sealing on the backside. Good job of sealing. You got a hands to the face right here too because the effort of the offensive line we're trying to get up. And just a nice shot. Look, the Drake is still blocking his defensive end and the ball's already passed him going other way. Extreme effort. You love these guys, grit and fight. And this is why the Falcons are tops in the league in Russian and had 200 yards last week versus Cleveland Browns.
