knapplc Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Offensive Tackle:1) QB Protection - The left OT has to be the best athlete on the line. As most QB's are right handed, their blind side is the left side. Since the best rushing DT is normally coming from the blind side, the left OT has to use finesse to keep him away from the QB - many times with no help from the TE! So, this poster should be very active, be able to have his ideas stand alone from others, and has the flare to his posts that keep the members happy!2) Physicality - For a right OT, physical strength is important because most offenses run over the right side of the line. The OT needs to create the outside lane for a RB on a standard run play (In the immortal words of Vince Lombardi at the blackboard: "What we need is a seam here," etc...). This poster comes strong with his ideas and creates a lane for others to make a topic grow and grow.3) Big guys with foot speed - Just as with an OG, the tackle should have a big presence on the line. At the same time, this giant should possess the ability to use his feet to gain leverage on an opposing defender. Basically, they can run through those rope squares really fast! I would say the ideal OT should be a poster that has big ideas in one message (that take a lot of space!) but still has the speed to contribute to as many forums as he can.
