POLL: Which Playing Phase Are You In Right Now? (Be Honest 👀)
Every defensive lineman moves through different phases in their career.
Some stay stuck.
Some evolve.
The question is — where are you right now?
🔹 Phase 1 – Thinking 🧠 (Using your mind to consider or reason about something)
You’re overthinking your rush.
You can’t clearly see the plan unfold as the play develops.
Everything feels a little slow...
If you don’t move past this phase, you’ll always be a step behind.
🔹 Phase 2 – Habits 🔄 (A regular tendency that’s hard to give up)
You’ve built some solid moves and counters — enough to stick around and contribute.
But you rely on the same 2–3 tools every rep.
You win sometimes, but you’re predictable.
🔹 Phase 3 – Instincts ⚡ (A natural or intuitive way of acting or thinking)
You react without thinking.
Your reads and pass rush adjustments happen automatically.
You control the O-lineman, not the other way around.
This is All-Star level play.
