Yeah... imagine a point guard who could only do bounce passes... no matter how accurate you are as a QB, if you have a tell, it's an advantage for a smart defender out there. I love these little skills that separate the greats from the goods. In hockey, I always thought the ability to receive a tough pass (behind the player, into the skates, things like that) is one of the better indicators of high talent level, along with the ability to steal a puck from another player with a quick stick lift, and puck-handling at high speed. In football... I think the ability to twist your body into a gap, while maintaining leverage, is a rare ability. It's something Frank Gore had tons of, he'd squeeze into tight holes and come out the other side with the legs still pushing through. Aldon also had that ability, going between a tackle and a guard sideways, still accelerating, right into the QB's face. The arm angle for a QB, high-pointing for a receiver, simply catching the ball for a DB... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense if it's Jon Embree. Silver also said on that podcast that he heard Kittle might retire in a season or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kittle's body has taken a beating so far as a pro, and clearly he's got other interests outside of football. He'll be 29 this year and I don't see him sticking around like Tony Gonzalez did. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said when we signed him that it was likely going to be his one big contract. Very difficult to hang around at a high level putting your body through that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is weird because i can see Kittle getting into professional wrestling after his football career lol. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
