Serious question, how can we run block so well and pass block so...not well?
Pass blocking takes athleticism, skill and effort, which we’re often in short supply of.
In high school if enough people got banged up in the game I would have to go in and play offensive guard (and would have to change jerseys down from a ball carrier’s number to a lineman’s number) Run blocking is relatively straight-forward and fun. Hit the guy in front of you with a double team, pull and take on an end / lb with a single collision, etc., but you typically didn’t have to hold your block for more than a split second cause the back would be by you. Yeah, college is different, but any college or pro lineman will tell you they prefer run blocking.
Pass blocking, screw that. It required staying on your block for several seconds, and if the guy across from you is bigger and more athletic, especially if you’re a big *** tackle going against a skilled and athletic end, you’re going to have your work cut out for you.
