The Gold Rush in Arizona

There are a number of superb plays on offense the Cardinals executed to near perfection this past season. This one in Week 18, in particular, felt particularly sweet:

Classic Drew Petzing 13 Personnel (1 RB 3 TEs)

  • Notice how all 3 TEs make key blocks on the play:
  • Quadruple down-blocks by #85 TE Trey McBride, #81 TE Travis Vokolek, LT #68 Kelvin Beachum, LG #65 Elijah Wilkinson to wall off the inside —-
  • Kick ass kick-out block on the edge by pulling #76 RG Will Hernandez —-
  • Perfect iso lead block on CB #27 Tariq Woolen by #84 TE Elijah Higgins —-
  • Notice how James Conner on the handoff take a counter step to give the OL and TEs the time to let the blocks develop and then he bursts through the hole on a clear path to the end zone.
