Thanks for sharing. As my son plays OL I will be sharing this video with him.

It's only holding if the ref calls it!
Been that way since holding was invented!
😂😂😂😂
Was interesting to watch.
Gives you something else to peek at during the game.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

Perhaps this helps explain how the injury ridden OL is still somewhat effective even with the backups in the game.

I think you can execute the technique without holding. You're pushing against the shoulder pads (in the video, they singled out one portion where Bulaga pushing up on the shoulder pads of the DL) to control the DL. You can push up / against the pads with the heels of your hands without grabbing and holding, and by adjusting the pressure of your arms / hands can control / keep the DL in front of you.

I'm not sure if the technique originated with the Packers, or if Campen adopted it. When watching the Steelers / Chiefs game, I noticed some of the Steelers OL using the 'Hug' technique.

There wouldn't be much of a story if it only focused on pushing back on the DLman.

I think the key to the video was the statement towards the middle where he says something about what happens when he faces a RT with better Technique like Bulaga well you would expect the defender to not have the success when facing a better opponent. Bulaga is considered one of the best RT in the game for a reason.

It has always been the case in football, The key to when holding gets called is if the lineman has good form and is in good position. If they do, they will almost never get called. It is when they are our of position and lose the form that officials pay attention. Officials cannot watch everything so they key on form and when they see bad form they watch closer.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Zero2Cool (8h) : Collin Whitchurch @cowhitchurch · 1h Chicago got a pope before it got a QB to throw for 4,000 yards in a season.

Mucky Tundra (8h) : New Pope from Chicago; in other words, the city produced a Pope before a 4000 yard passer

beast (7-May) : My first name starts with R and my beer belly is quite voluptuous! Thank you for noticing 😏

Zero2Cool (7-May) : beast, you're just one R from being voluptuous.

Zero2Cool (7-May) : And now some Packers blogger is like Doubs to Steelers makes sense!!!!

Zero2Cool (7-May) : You saw me Tweet???

Martha Careful (5-May) : Yes, in the military S2’s work on IPB, PERCEC, PHYSEC and IO

dfosterf (4-May) : FYI civilian companies swipe the S2 designation from the military. S2 is the intelligence branch up to brigade level. G2 is division level.

dfosterf (4-May) : Google it. Make sure to tack NFL on it or you will get the military meaning

Zero2Cool (4-May) : S2?

beast (4-May) : Seems like the S2 has a love/hate relationship with professional scouts.

beast (4-May) : In theory, the S2 test how quickly a QBs brain can solve game like issues and how quickly they can do it.

dfosterf (4-May) : Are you gentlemen and at least one lady familiar with the S2 cognition

Zero2Cool (4-May) : Maybe there isn't an issue.

beast (4-May) : NFL really needs to fix their position labeling issue, but I don't think they care

packerfanoutwest (1-May) : someone drunk?

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Unlikely.

dfosterf (30-Apr) : How long until Jeff Sperbeck's family sues John Elway ?

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : Packers are exercising the fifth-year option on DT Devonte Wyatt, locking in a guaranteed $12.9M for the 2026 season.

beast (30-Apr) : Sounds like P Luke Elzinga has a rookie try out opportunity from the Titans

dfosterf (30-Apr) : Luke Elzinga Punter Oklahoma stil unsigned. Green Bay has been mentioned as good fit
