Favorite position on the football team

[BillsSabresB.C.T. Fan]

Where's your favorite position to play on a football team? I like the QB position because I like to see them to air it out to the WR's!!!

[STAMPY]

[Schobel94]

DE!

CB just because I'm the best at it.

well I was a RB so I'm saying RB, I loved having the ball especially when guys tried to tackle me and I would just knock them back on their butt's.

Hear me out on this one!


It really depends on your coaching staff and offensive philosophy. My HS team had a decidedly mediocre QB, and an only adequate OL. To make up for this, we needed an extremely varied running game and short passing attack. As such, at full back I got to see a lot of action in a variety of roles.

Note: I played in HS at 6'1", 230-235ish by the end of senior year.

We had a fairly mixed old-school feel to our running game. I was a big guy, so a good 30+% of our runs were for me either up the middle or a trap inside. As long as our OL just kept the defenders occupied for a second, I could get a bit of a steam going to trudge through arm tackles with no problem.

On HB runs, I had good enough quickness to get to the point of attack and put a hat on someone. Against a smaller LB (5'11 or less) I could usually plant them or send them flying in whatever direction I wanted.

On pass plays, our HB was usually the one kept in to pick up blitzes, mainly because I was too inviting a target when I got out in the flat. Get me the ball in space and I was able to bowl over at least one guy.


So many options! I loved being versatile.


(on defense I subbed in occasional as a 3rd down pass rusher. Since I spent most of my practice time on offense, my tackling was suspect, but I had the physical tools to get after the QB, usually by just out-muscling whichever OL was weakest)

Defense: MLB

Offense: Typically I would say RB, credit that to Thurman, Barry, and many others who've blown my mind on countless plays over the years.

Special Exeption: TE for the Bills in the upcoming years if Jason Peters pans out. I absolutely love the idea of a 320 lb guy running routes and opening up holes for Travis and Willis.

When I played football, I played just about every position defensively except safety, but mostly at either OLB or defensive end. Now, the few times I get to play a game with friends, I usually play defensive end. It's fun. I don't really like to play offense. When I did play, I played at tight end and offensive tackle. Sometimes, when I played flag football in school or sandlot ball with friends, I would play QB, but not very often.

in 3 years of playing varsity football I had 5,973 rushing in my 4th season a teamate fell on my knee tearing my mcl and it was the last practice before our season opener that year started a great high school career for my back up which ran for over 6,238 in 4 years, till this date his yards are #1 in school history mine are #2, I still think back to what could have been for me if I wouldn't have been injured my scholarship to Syracuse was taken away cause they thought I wouldn't play again, but heck my knee is fine and I still get out there and play, just this time with my friends full contact no pads.

p.s. we didn't throw the ball only about 1 maybe 2 passes a gameand I was the back up QB
