Virtual Camp - Running Backs

Great run game = Great Offense

Teams on the professional and collegiate level who have a solid run game tend to perform better than those who don't. The primary benefit of the run game is to make the defense adjust. 

Many of the top teams in College still rely on a powerful ground game fueled by a dominant runner, allowing them to take control of a game. The presence of a standout running back alleviates the pressure on the quarterback to consistently make impactful passes and gives the offense the balance needed to win against elite defenses.

In many offenses running backs play a key role in the passing game. Running back is a very demanding position. You need great balance and vision and need to know where to run. To be special, your running back must be versatile enough to play effectively on every down. It requires a player to be very active every time he's on the field, and it's a position that'll wear you out consistently. 

Running backs need to keep focus on the fundamentals. That starts with footwork, agility and balance. The running back must master several first steps or footwork. Successful footwork enables you to create a clear path out of the pocket and into the field. It's essential that your back has the vision to see gaps as well as the ability to make plays and make cuts to maximize yardage. Take your running backs to the end zone. Introducing AJ Steward.
