Okay, so today I wanted to dig into something specific: Jon Runyan and his time with the Eagles. I’ve been a fan for a while, and I always thought he was a solid player, so I decided to really see what his deal was.
First, I scoured the internet for any old game footage I could find. I wanted to get a good sense of how he played, you know, beyond just the basic stats.
- I started with some general searches, just typing in “Jon Runyan Eagles” to get an overview.
- Then, I focused on finding highlight reels or, even better, full game recordings.
Diving into Game Film
After I gathering, I started watching. I’m no expert, but I was specifically looking for a few things:
- How well did he hold his ground against pass rushers?
- Could I see his run blocking and it’s effectiveness?
It took a good chunk of time. I mean, I’m not just skimming through this stuff. I was really trying to watch his every move, pausing, rewinding, and making notes, sounds nerdy right?
My takeaway
From what I could see, Runyan was a powerful, reliable guy on that offensive line.
I felt this pratice made a great sense for me today.
