Great. Jump outside, play catch with some kids and reenact the play at full speed. It seems fairly simple to do from the benefit of comfort and with no pressure attached to the situation.
Sure, we all would like players to do this or to do that but **** me, do some of you have unrealistic expectations for the moment.
It's a split second decision being made at speed. It is not a simple task, no matter how well coached.
You just PROVED why it should be muscle memory.
Muscle memory should be "Go for the ball" not "Oh it looks like it may be rolling around so I will take my eyes off and raise my arms to get out of the way while I leap over him".
The problem is that he overthought it and made a judgement on a split second play.
You don't understand that.
