Run blocking is terrible , need some help

[dreadnok89]

I play on pro. I'm not good. But I noticed the run blocking is terrible. Even with 99 overall o linemen. What's a good slider for team run blocking.

I'm using Playmakers sliders and they are working good for me.

Don't run inside, run outside, look for the hole, be patient.

Read your defensive line up against your offensive line set before snap and look at where your blocks will be...


Here is a simple video explanation of run blocking for a Power 26 play, but the blocking rules hold true for other run plays...

That is true. Start the game off with outside runs. Be patient and by the second half the inside will open up usually.

I play 15 min quarters with 15 second clock BTW.

Yes ,running opens up second half, D gets tired. I ran 250yds with the Bucs, 14 min qtrs, all pro. BUT some teams stuff the run effectively.

Essentially, your offensive lineman will block the defender who is right in front of them; if defender is not in front of them, they will block the guy to their back side; if no one is close to their backside, as in the gap closest to them, or the defender is head up on another blocker, the lineman will block the closest next level defender, usually a LB...

Once you know where your blocks are going to take place, you will know where to run before the play unfolds, and you can also trust running to a hole that isn't open at the snap, but you know the blocker will take the defender filling that hole..
