How an Offensive Line Center Does a Choke Block
The center is blocking back to defensive linemen aligned over the guard and the guard is pulling. So the play Robbie’s lined up as a center the left guard, the left guard’s going to pull and work to the play side to the right side and the choke is a special block by the center, okay. The step is a pivot because he’s not the centers not sure other than by watching film what kind of defender we got, is he a penetrator or is he a hat reader, so he has to block back with a pivot step to block the defender as if he’s a penetrator. Then if he reads a hat he puts a slow second step, we talked about that hey as I turn it’s a slow second step sticking it on the ground, peeing on a fire hydrant, alright. So here’s Robbie again the guards pulling Doc’s going to come across and it’s going to be a penetrator right here, okay, just with a pivot step, slow second step, go, boom there it is right there.
