Marvin Harrison, Jr. Camp: He got bigger. Games: He's still not performing quality jump-up-and-throughs when facing the ball. Waits for ball flat-footed and uses underhand attack. Completely mitigates his height advantage. Great w/back to the ball. Facing it? Not fixed.

Antonio Williams was so open he couldn’t believe it and drifted. Good catch to save his rookie gaffe. TD

Luther Burden Caleb Williams likely expected Burden to continue tempo-ing his break across this open zone. Burden settled. If correct, rookie mistake. It has been a luxury to bring Burden along slowly in an O that Odunze said would take a yr+ to fully learn. #DaBears

Caleb Williams looking downfield, but when Roquan Smith comes through clean, you gotta a check it. He does. Caleb has been consistently on point with what #DaBears OL is giving him good or bad.

Liam Coen / Trevor Lawrence Other WRs may look the part in your offense, but Parker Washington should be your jam. He's my jam. He makes plays. Good break, always YAC, and nails at the catch point. Wins balls. Feed him and win.

RB Kaelon Black #Hoosiers #NFLDraft Good inside runners attack downhill and finish with intensity. Black does this against unblocked defenders or into the back of his lead blocker if necessary. Good finisher mentality.

Jump cuts are the RB candy that leads to cavities if used too often. Many RBs would have tried it here. Saquon Barkley had a massive sweet tooth in the past. Not now. So efficient in the crease here. Straight nutrients…

Trevor Lawrence vs. C0: Can't get the ball far enough in front of his target while trying to be the superhero. #Jaguars Good game overall, but succumbed on this play to thinking his long blond hair came with a cape. Common among athletic QBs with a good arm.

The world is flat, the sky is plaid, & Ashton Jeanty just doesn't have "IT," part 1 million. Patient set up at the line within a step of blockers. Rides the wave outside. Great body alignment, high knees/feet, & choppy steps to work thru mutiple hits w/balance. #Raiders

Justin Jefferson selling the out-breaker at top of stem. What few receivers do that he does is hold the eyes for three steps before snapping back to break inside. #Vikings

As I said this April, Colston Loveland is TE1 from this 2025 class. Don’t care about this year’s box scores. Loveland pops off the film. One of the catches of the day. #DaBears .

“They don’t want [Ashton Jeanty] to do this too much…” Are you kidding me? An RB on a safety who understands how to initiate contact to minimize that contact at the same time? Please…every down vs a safety and a downhill runway to him!

Over the years, I have shown numerous catches where the WR “reinforces his position” with his hand that some may confuse as a push-off. These two instances on the same routes were pushes. Refs don’t call it and George Pickens scores.

Good route adjustment by Marvin Harrison, Jr. BUT the attack is the same underhand issue I've been pointing out on high points that he's shown since at least 2023... Overhand attack is optimal and limits potential to fight this ball, control sooner, and turn. #cardinals
