Ok but how does one separate out all these variables in order to determine that a win was a weight room win? or not a weight room win
Tell me you?ve never played football, without saying,
I have never played football.
If a team runs the ball down your throat and they win the game.
If I defensive line dominates an offensive line, the whole game, and they win the game.
If a team, makes their opponents exhausted and they use superior conditioning to finish and win the game.
In short yardage and goal line situations, if a team is able to show run and run the ball successfully and win the game.
Conversely in short yardage and goal line situations, if a defense, stones and stops a team and gets the ball back.
If one team doubles or triples the amount of rushing yards.
If a defense allows little rushing success.
If you see things like one team?s line pushing the other line backwards.
If you see defensive linemen penetrating into the offensive backfield.
If you see an offense blocking & knocking defensive players down.
Weightroom wins don?t have to mean complete domination, being moderately superior in the aforementioned areas can often be weightroom wins, because every team does conditioning.
For example, if the game is tied with less than 2 minutes left and we successfully rush the ball down the field and display superior conditioning and strength and we make it into the redzone and run the ball into the endzone.
Weight room wins
Football is a contact sport, physical size, strength and conditioning are advantages (please read that again and take time to try to understand it)
These things may not be apparent to the casual fan, but they are really important.
Strength is not everything because football is a game of tremendous skill, mental focus and speed, as well.
