Pro level breakdown on Emmitt Smith. I will always remember Emmitt's hold out year 0f '93. He missed the first two games and the Cowboys go 0-2. Emmitt signs and they win 7 straight and go on to win their second straight Super Bowl. Like you said his football IQ was off the charts and he had the best set of intangibles of any player, ever. Epic video, epic breakdown.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

@@kennyo6582 All facts! A great time to be a Cowboy!

[@greezythumb]

A little correction. It's a common misconception that Emmitt held out but that's not what happened. Emmitt's contact had actually expired. A hold out is when a player has a contract and refuses to play unless a new contract is created. The truth is, his rookie contract had expired and him and Jerry were playing hardball. Emmitt has clarified this himself even though the media continues to get it wrong to this day.

[@kennyo6582]

@@greezythumb I am sure that's true, but after going 0-2 Emmitt got a 4 year 13 million dollar contract. If memory serves I think that made him the highest paid running back.

[@princelakey5833]

did he ever have a 2,00.00 yard season? with that offensive line he was blessed with ?

[@timspeer5669]

Darrick Lassic #25 replaced Smith for those 2 games and he gained 127 yards. If it was all the O Line and the skill players around him Lassic would have been able to replicate his impact on the game.

LC that was an excellent break down of The Great Emmitt Smith. He was not flashy like some of his contemporaries but had ❤️, strong Will, gave 100% and read defenses like a seasoned QB. He made his opportunities by simply following his blockers. To me Emmitt is the greatest running back of all time. Superb video LC I'll definitely recommend it to guy's at church.

Excellent work. Been trying to explain exactly this to many #22 haters for decades. You really had to see him work play after play, game after game. Very similar to both MI and TA.

[@TJettman]

I think what you said about him in small spaces as opposed to Sanders in the open field is exactly what the key to his running style was. He had great swivel without turning his whole body. I remember people always saying he wasn't fast enough. He broke plays and looked fast enough when he did. Where his actual speed helped him was in those tight spaces. Defenders would often think he's not fast then suddenly, he's got 7, he's got 10, he's got 15. It was game after game. Yeah, it's been a long time now but today's fans really missed out on 2 great backs in that era.

Another masterpiece!!! A couple other plays come to mind. In Emmitt’s 100 yard receiving game against the Rams his rookie move he makes a jump cut downfield and it’s like the DBs are on roller skates. Do you remember that run on his own goal line against Green Bay? I believe it was ‘93. He hits the line and there’s no hole so he vaults between them and over their legs and picks up like 10 yards. You know Barry would have bounced that outside and probably gott tackled for a safety. In that same Oakland game on another TD someone misses a block and Ellison flys through and hits Emmitt with a beheading tackle IN THE BACKFIELD!! He just bounces off and Emmitt goes in for the score. So much for Emmitt never getting touched til he was 20 yards downfield. Lol.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

@joshuahendricks7701 There you go again!! Lol. Always a great post! I completely forgot about those plays!

[@pauls3616]

Great video TLC. You are about the only bright spot of another disappointing season. Emmitt has always been my favourite player. He definitely knew how to exploit a good block. That last clip of him scoring the touchdown against the Raiders truly shows Emmitt’s skills. He ran right at Novacek who was blocking one raider but also held the other raider where he was in case Emmitt ran straight at him. As soon as Smith cut outside and Novacek was still blocking his guy this also caused Ronnie Lott to not be able to pursue since he had two players in his way. Emmitt was able to use Novacek to block three raiders. Smart and strong goes a long way. Anyways, thanks for another great video.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

Great break down. Appreciate you brother

[@johnanderson7076]

I remember seeing him at the old stadium. He would be 1.5 to 2 ft off the ground parallel to it and still gain another 3 yds. Those legs would just keep pumping and would not stop until he hit the ground. People say he had a great line, but everyone in the stadium knew he was getting the ball. They would stack the line and he still produced 100 yd games.

It's kind of hard to describe his running style. At times he reminded me of Walter Payton and other times he was like Jim Brown. He wasn't a pure power runner like Earl Campbell or a speed demon like Tony Dorsett. Having trouble really defining him is probably what made him such a nightmare for a defense.

[@Texpantego]

[@thelogicalcowboy]

@Texpantego 🔥 🔥

[@GeorgeDemetz]

I agree! He is the most underated player of all time! He was not the fastest, by a long shot, he was not the biggest, by a long shot, he was not the strongest, by a long shot, and he was not the quuickest by a long shot, but he has great balance to and he ran smart as heck, and he worked his butt off, and that is one reason he was so durable which made him the leading rusher if all time! He was also very determined! I noticed how he was blocking defensive linemen much bigger than him , but he kept his balanced and held them off!!!

Great video and graphic breakdown analysis Prof. LC! The physical conditioning that Emmitt practiced had to be insane.

[@bradcallaghan8099]

The one thing I loved the most about Emmitt was how he finished a run. When a lot of RBs are near the end of a run near the sideline they will jump out of bounds to avoid a hit. Emmitt seemed to always want to deliver a punishment to the tackler and pounded them before being driven out.

[@TomBrandt-p3l]

100% correct. No one moved the chains like Emmitt or broke the goal line. Cowboys always survived if Aikman or anyone else was out but if Emmitt was out they lost. At the same time Most underrated and Best

[@bigred9991]

Its crazy how much people hate in this man. If he played for any other team he would be considered the GOAT RB, but because he played for the Cowboys he gets penalized for playing with great teammates. No one says anything about Rice playing with great teammates and playing longer than any receiver to ever play the game. For 2/3 of Rice's. Career he had at the time the greatest QB to ever play the game and then he had another legendary QB throwing to him in S. Young. And on top of all that he had a legendary head coach build an offense around Rice's strength. Meanwhile Emmitt had a dominant line for around 4 years because after that drugs and car wrecks decimated that line and Emmitt was still putting up ridiculous numbers. When I'm talking about football at work or at the bar and someone tells me Emmitt was only good because of his line I immediately end that conversation because its not worth the headache that comes with arguing to an idiot. Emmitt in my opinion was the best RB of all-time because he showed up every Sunday hurt or not, regular season or playoffs and he performed. You couldn't take Emmitt out of the game. He made a mark on every game he played and was at his best when the stakes were at the highest. Vision, power, speed, stiff arm, blocking, balance, and he was a weapon in the passing game. There's more talented RB's but not better.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

[@thelogicalcowboy]

@@lowenstaat Thanks for watching!

[@robot_clean]

If you'll notice many running backs use their right arm to carry the ball which also tends to lead to planting off the right foot. Emmitt carried the ball predominantly under his left arm (why he was able to play through his separated right shoulder, and having his right hand broken wasn't a big issue for him) so he was comfortable going off either foot. His dead arm move he used with his right was also incredibly effective. It wasn't really a stiff arm as he always kind of had it just hanging beside him while he ran. It kind of made it hard to get a clean tackle because he would either slap away an arm tackle, or kind use it to make it hard to get a good wrap up tackle. It also helped him not overbalance so when he's running on his toes and breaking tackles at the same time the right arm just kind of hanging there is giving him a good counterbalance. There could be a whole video of just how subtly deadly that right arm was.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

@robot_clean You beat me to it. That's going to be my next video about Smith whenever I get to it. Smith's right arm and the way he shedded off contact were legendary. This was a great post to read! I could have read more!

Wow! This is the best sports video I have ever seen! Analysis is well thought out and brilliant. Gives unique insight into the game of football at the highest level. The subject, happens to be my favorite player and my hero as a kid. I could never put my finger on why, I loved to watch Emmitt run. That was also part of the magic of his talent. What was it? Why and how does he move that way and how do you even describe it? It’s poetry in motion, in a game of extreme violence it looks like he’s floating and gliding. When most players cut and quickly change direction, Emmitt’s path down the field were more like a curve or bend, he sometimes cut but mostly it was subtle and also bounced off of defenders. His running was mesmerizing. Your analysis of the goal line play against the Raiders was a Eureka moment for me as you pointed out, Emmitt is largely on his toes. Yeah, he’s on his toes and it’s deceiving to observe because his legs are enormous and powerful and Emmitt is only 5’9. Being on his toes is why he had the optical illusion of gliding or floating as well his intangible characteristics of moving in a matter akin to the grace of Michael Jordan, they are just geniuses of human movement. Your additional analysis of Emmitt’s thought process during a play is equally or more so brilliant and the summation of all this equals the greatest football content on any platform, I have ever seen.

Great video LC. But I’ll say what I’ve always said about Emmitt. What makes him different from all others is his durability. I don’t think anybody will ever break his career yards record because the lifespan of an elite RB is at an all time low. People will always say “well yeah, you don’t get hurt with that line”. But I would argue he got hit harder cause his tackles are coming from incoming linebackers and secondary players rushing in at full speed.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

He also was hit harder because of the competition he played against in the nfc east. Think about this Smith played in arguably the greatest defensive division in nfl history. Taylor 1990-1993 Giants and Strahan 1993-1998 Giants. The defenses of the redskins in the early 90s. The Reggie White Eagle defenses of the early 90s. The Cardinals also had vicious defenses. Smith faced those teams 8 times per year. That's why he was hurt twice as much as Sanders throughout his career.

@@thelogicalcowboyabsolutely! For four straight years a team from the nfc east won the superbowl.

Great video!

[@MaxAmerica.Freedom]

Great analysis. He looked slow to me when I first saw him. He's extremely intelligent and patient. He's very tough. I remember a safety running from the secondary and timing his hit to slam Smith. He knocked out Emmit but Emmit came back later and ran the same play and ran over the safety. Smith was ready for him. Peyton was my favorite, but you can't deny the greatness of Emmitt Smith. He's very tough. Strong and smart. He had a "spidey sense" or "Jedi" reflexes.

Emmett was always my number one cowboy player. Back on the team had something to brag about. That’s been a very long time

[@thecorrnershed]

What great analysis. TO all those who say Barry was they best, Emmitt was right there with him.

2:27. Man do I love seeing receivers who ain’t afraid to block. Kevin Williams is underrated in my opinion.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

Wow! Great block!

Awesome breakdown. This is why E-double will always be the goat. He did more with less.

[@nmelkhunter1]

Another great breakdown with cause and effect. Well done.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

Thanks for watching!

[@nmelkhunter1]

@ Yep!

[@roscoemahaffey3337]

Mane the offensive line for dallas around 92-96 that was one of the best lines ever. And Smith was one of the most patient runners and i hate the cowboys

[@krl97a]

Brilliant video. Everyone could benefit from watching this.

[@esauavalos7962]

Sanders had a bit more burst but Emmitt had the vision

[@thelogicalcowboy]

I agree. Thanks for watching!

[@Myguyver]

That cowboys offensive line was amazing .

[@TypicalAisian1968]

Emmitt loved the toss right because he could read the field and cut back. "I didn't know he could run fast enough to pull a hamstring" Jimmy Johnson.

[@espectrodelayautja6320]

He had a perfect offensive line. He did bare minimum with that amazing line. I lived the time. All hype.
