Cornerback André Goodman Patrick Smyth, Executive Director of Media Relations ([email protected] / 303-264-5536) Rebecca Villanueva, Media Services Manager ([email protected] / 303-264-5598) Erich Schubert, Media Relations Coordinator ([email protected] / 303-264-5503) DENVER BRONCOS QUOTES (10/11/11) CORNERBACK ANDRÉ GOODMAN On the quarterback switch “At the end of the day, I think we’re all disappointed for [QB] Kyle [Orton] because it almost implicates him in a way, that the reason we’re 1-4 is it’s his fault. That’s not the case. It could have been me. It could have been anybody on this team. None of us are doing a good enough job to make plays and help us win. As disappointed as you are for Kyle, you’re kind of excited for [QB Tim] Tebow because he’s getting a chance. We’re just hoping that translates into wins. “At the end of the day we’re 1-4 and that’s the reason why we’re not cheering. We’re 1-4 and we haven’t been playing good football. So there is no reason for this locker room to be excited at the end of the day. We have a long way to go to get ourselves close to being competitive and we’re not there. That’s the reason the locker room is kind of subdued. And again, the headline is probably Kyle and it could’ve been any of us, but the fact of the matter is that it’s Tim Tebow and he has such an aura about him and a following that’s such a big story.” On quarterback being the most important position on the team “It is but the guys around him can help him play better whether it’s the guys on his side of the ball or the guys on the defensive side of the ball. If we’re able to make more plays and put him, put the offense, in better position, it can affect his performance as well as any quarterback. It’s not Kyle, it’s that position. At the end of the day it is the quarterback position—he is going to get a lot of the blame as he gets a lot of the praise when things go well. I think he understands it comes with the position. It’s not a fun transition in terms of any team when you have to deal with something like this so early on in the season. We’re five games in and we’re dealing with it. So it doesn’t feel good.” On if he’s dealt with anything like this before “You always deal with quarterback changes. I’ve been on a couple of teams where there has always been quarterback competition, quarterback changes. At the end of the day, the big story is the 1-4 record.” On Tebow “Tim has a presence about him that I’ve never been around before in terms of a guy in the locker room. I’ve played with some Hall of Fame players before, and it’s nowhere close to the aura that this guy has.” On why he has that aura “I can’t explain; that’s not for me to explain.” On the status of the team “I think what you have to be careful of is to make sure we’re not in a panic mode. I think that’s the big thing, to realize that when you’re 1-4 and you’re going into a bye, everything’s going to be evaluated. The quarterback position definitely has got to be evaluated but everybody else’s position will be evaluated as well. Who knows what the positions will be when we come back? I’m pretty sure the coaches are going to continue to evaluate every position during the bye.” ©2011 Denver Broncos Football Club. All rights reserved.

    Ohio State Cornerback Shaun Wade Wins Big Ten Defensive Back Of The Year, Seven Buckeyes Named To All-Big Ten Defensive Teams A day after earning nine selections to the All-Big Ten teams on the offensive side of the ball, Ohio State once again showed up plenty on the defensive All-Big Ten teams, with seven Buckeyes being listed, including two on the first team. One of those was cornerback Shaun Wade, who was also named the Tatum-Woodson Defensive Back of the Year for his efforts. Wade, a junior, has 16 tackles (11 solo), three pass breakups and a pair of interceptions on the season. Joining him on the first team was linebacker Pete Werner, who is having a breakout senior campaign.

  • MAKING COMPLEX SIMPLE: Adapting RPO's for All Levels
    X&O Labs Article #3 – March 9, 2018 MAKING COMPLEX SIMPLE: Adapting RPO’s for All Levels Case Three – Sweep by Paul Hefty 9th Grade Assistant Coach State College High School, PA Instructor in Kinesiology @ Penn State University INTRODUCTION: My high school (Milledgeville, Illinois) was very small, but very successful (HFC’s – Les Snow, Gary Hartje and AHC – Rick Malson), using a classic wing-T system (35 wins and 3 losses during those four years). Classic buck sweep is an outstanding concept to apply to a one back spread RPO system. The challenge is to adapt buck sweep using an Hback along with 2nd level RPO concepts in a simple and sound manner. First, buck sweep uses a simple “covered-uncovered” blocking rule. By using a proven test-of-time wing-T core scheme we can attack the defense on the edge and off tackle at the same time. I was fortunate to play and learn under my high school coaches that used legendary HFC Forest Evashevski’s U of Iowa wing-T offense (1958 Big Ten Conference Champions and 1959 Rose Bowl winners over the U of Cal). Again, you can use this same sweep scheme for multiple plays. “Evolved Simplicity” = 1 blocking scheme (Sweep) – Run or Pass Second, sweep is flexible in that it can adjust and fit to the strength’s (talents) of personnel from year to year, week to week and game to game. You can run this strong or weak, from 2x2 or 3x1 alignments and with the back or QB as the ball-carrier.

  • Cornerback Rankings
    2011 Draft Guide – DraftAce.com Cornerback Rankings 1. Patrick Peterson LSU Ht: 6’1” Wt: 212 Pros: Elite size, speed and overall athleticism for a cornerback. Has the potential to be a true shutdown corner. Excels in man coverage. A physical cornerback that won’t back down from mixing it up with bigger receivers at the line of scrimmage. Shows good ball skills. Does a nice job turning and reacting to the ball in the air. An elite corner in zone coverage; does a great job reading the quarterback and reacting quickly. Far exceeds expectations for a cornerback in run support. Very reliable tackler, occasionally delivering a big hit. Above average return specialist; can probably return kicks/punts early in his career in NFL. Cons: Overaggressive at times. Seems to get cocky on the field at times and takes too many risks. Notes: Peterson is the best cornerback prospect to enter the draft in a very long time, and possibly the best ever. There are a very select few players at the position that possess his blend of size and speed. He excels in every aspect of the game and his success on special teams is an added bonus. He could very easily come off the board higher than any defensive back in NFL Draft history. NFL Comparison: Charles Woodson Grade: 96 – Top Three 2. Prince Amukamara Nebraska Ht: 6’0” Wt: 205 Pros: Converted running back who showed steady progress throughout his career. Impressive size and speed. Looks very fluid in man coverage. Can turn and run with any receiver.

  • Linebacker: Watch the QB and Don't Let Him Run. Roll to the Right When He Does, and Cut Off All Running Lanes. in Flag Football
    Linebacker: Watch the QB and don't let him run. Roll to the right when he does, and cut off all running lanes. In flag football, QBs love running, and if no one is watching, the QB will get a lot of yards on you. The Linebacker will also have to pick up offensive linemen that go out for a pass. Danger: The QB may fake a run out to one side, drawing the linebacker with him, and then an offensive lineman releases for a pass on the other side. The safety will have to be watching this, and run up to make the play. Linebackers and safeties have to know their positions, coordinate and talk to each other. The game will be won or lost by the play of the Linebackers and Safety. Safety: The Safety is the defensive QB, especially in flag football. He is to lead the defensive team. His role is to cover anyone who get loose. If a wide receiver is getting open deep, he covers and helps out. If an offensive lineman goes out, he has to cover him if the line backer is busy. If he sees a nice blitz opportunity, he can tell a cornerback to blitz, while he picks up the slack. If a corner blitzes, the linebacker covers the now open wide receiver short, and safety covers him deep. Can a safety blitz? Sure, because he is the extra guy. Let the linebacker know you are blitzing, so he can pick up your zone. The Safety and Linebacker are the two most crucial position on defense.

  • Herb Adderley: Cornerback
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 9, No. 5 (1987) HERB ADDERLEY: CORNERBACK By Don Smith Starting with his first regular-season game in the National Football League, Herb Adderley proved to be a "big-play" star who could and many times did turn apparent defeat into important victory. Adderley, who excelled for the Green Bay Packers from 1961 through 1969 and then wound up his 12- year career with the Dallas Cowboys in 1970, 1971 and 1972, demoralized the opposition in a variety of ways. For instance, in his first NFL appearance against the San Francisco 49ers, he had three long kickoff returns, one of which set up a Packers' field goal when the game was still closely contested. Two years later in 1963, Green Bay was trailing Minnesota, 28-27, when Adderley raced in to block Fred Cox's 10-yard field goal. The Packers returned the block for a touchdown and the 10-point turnaround made possible by Herb's outstanding effort provided Green Bay's margin of victory. Against the Oakland Raiders in Super Bowl II, Adderley returned an intercepted pass 60 yards for a touchdown, one of only four such returns in the Super Bowl history. The feat earned Herb a coveted Super Bowl game ball. While Adderley did star on the special teams during his eight years in the NFL, his primary job was to play left cornerback for both the Packers and the Cowboys, perennially two of the premier defensive teams in the NFL. Many insist that Herb, along with Dick (Night Train) Lane, was the best ever to play the position.
