Came across this and it's too good not to share on here:



Let's hope Drake Maye takes some time and watches this

Damn, that dude was amazing.
 
He got even better AFTER the age of 35 smdh..GOAT.
 
 
I remember about twenty years ago Ron Jaworski calling him the most mobile quarterback in the league and pointing out examples of this.
 
He did this better than any other QB by far
 
Incredible awareness of his own linemen and how to use a collapsing pocket by shifting behind his own linemen that are being pushed by the DL, effectively cutting lanes from those who have edged past their man on the OL, and how much time each maneuver bought him.

Totally understood the sheer amount of possibilities when in a pocket. Didn't just rely on a cozy spot, bailing out in backyard fashion when things were less than perfect.
 
We are so spoiled by decades of this lol

This is why some of us got excited by Zappe, we saw a little bit of good pocket presence.

Maye has pretty good pocket presence himself but also has some actual rushing ability, though like Tom he usually has his eyes downfield before trying to run. However the threat of him rushing will open up coverage windows in those situations. Let’s hope he can take advantage.

The examples showed how huge Brady's brain was. He could read everything on the field all at once. Incredible!
 
Thanks for posting. I didn't appreciate this until I saw him in person and was like...holy crap. It wasn't until I saw it in the context of the entire field, and how he was controlling and responding to things in real time, often with incredibly subtle movements. It was truly awe-inspiring.

GOAT
