I could see positioning in football being one of two things: 1. Defensive positioning – being in the right place at the right time. Specifically, lining up in the correct spot before the snap of the ball and then anticipating how the play is developing and positioning yourself accordingly to make a play on the ball. Seems like this would be important to LB, CB and Safeties and to a lesser degree D-Linemen. I've long wondered about the positioning/vision trade off and just chalked it up to me just being in the minority. I'm with SFniner on the above in thats what I figure positioning to be. I'm basing my understading of the skills based on my years of Madden video game training and as I see it positioning is a direct reflection of what the "Awareness" rating in Madden was. Basically saying that the higher the awareness rating the more skillful a player is at anticipating what the defense or offense is going to do and reacting accordingly to take advantage. I could make the arguement that in this game Positioning and Vision should be combined into one skill and call it Awareness. I think that will relieve some of the linguistic confusion we seem to be having on the issue.. and would separate the whole "Which position uses positioning vs which position uses vision" as in R/L ALL positions on the field rely heavily on both and their really is no difference between the two. I agree, that some uses both skills combined. Defence players do so. But QB uses only vision. And accoring to my suspicion RB's and WR/TE use vision only as well. Generally, my understanding is that vision is a kind of read opposition, while positioning is the action the player takes based on that read info. In that sense attacking players except OL act in a different way, not with positioning. |
