Cool Link VIDEO: Will Campbell vs Michael Clemons

[Ian]

Kid continues to be terrific:

Nice video with the pancake finish but this is a bad rep by Campbell. He got bull rushed into Maye as he's completing his drop forcing him to relocate. This is bad pass pro

You can't be serious.

He loses very initially on speed to power but recovers very quickly and turns the rep into a dominating win. There is no way that is bad pass pro.

He turned the rep to a win because Maye changed the angle by moving right as he finished his drop which is what you want to avoid as an OL. The edge rusher in the QB's face right as he completes his drop is not good pass pro.

Campbell played a great game last night overall against a good pass rusher. I get that he had the nice pancake block at the end, but the defender already beat him to force Maye off the spot. And it was a backup, run defending specialist too. This is hardly the rep to puff chests out Campbell over. It just so happens to have a fun highlight at the end.

Another perspective on that same play, with good analysis.

The ability to recover after an initial loss is one of the best ways to judge whether an OT is good enough. All LTs will face that type of challenge. Campbell showed his ability to recover and I'm fine puffing chests over that, particularly when he turns that recovery into a dominant win.

Haha damn! I just posted that in the post game thread not knowing there was a thread on it

Yep.

Clemons bull rushes
Campbell slides him to the outside
Clemons counters with an attempt at a swim move to the inside
Campbell slides, uses his hands to drive him away from Maye

Great feet movement. Good hands placement. Good quickness/reaction.

Amazed how someone can watch that and think it was a bad rep. That is purely just wanting to ***** about something.

Yep. You'd think the last 3 years was enough *****ing and moaning for one fan base.

I'm OK with critiquing poor line play when it's called for. Campbell has allowed sacks and hurries. Post those.

Absolutely. Not saying Campbell was perfect, and have no problem with criticism. But to criticize that play…

 

[yukon cornelius]

there is a synergy to pass protection - synergy between lineman, and synergy between the line and the QB

this was a perfect example of that......and to be honest, Maye is often at his best when he has to move in the pocket

But but but he’s got such short arms he won’t be successful! /s I can’t wait to see what this kid can do once he’s got some seasons under his belt…..and yea..loved that!

Whitworth mentioned this last night that Campbell may lose on the initial attack, but finds a way to recover.
