alright what's up everybody Morey Croson here from the performance lab of California and we
have another new breakdown for you today and this is going to be the ultimate quarterback mechanic
video the reason why is because when I have Tom Brady out here without Aaron Rodgers on here we
have Drew Brees on here we have Patrick mahomes on here overall I think a very well-rounded group of
top performing quarterbacks in the NFL and since I already have it on table ready we'll just go
and get started here with Tom Brady and and the idea of this is to see some of the things that
are our correlations between all of them and some of the things that are differences between all of
them been doing some with comparisons with on the speed videos that I'd might as well try it within
the quarterback videos and this will make it so we could then go through a few more guys a little
bit a little bit more quickly as we they're able to explain to use some some key mechanic part or
principle so big team that we see with Tom Brady is big a mark amount of internal rotation on that
back leg notice how when he pushes off that back leg see how much he turns that hip in there to get
his momentum going forward now notice also he has a very bent very stable front leg and now
he's going to transition all of his weight forward he's big on getting full extension within his arm
getting a lot of extension there and then coming all the way through I think overall his body he
has a little bit longer torso and so he utilizes a lot of staying back within his torso right so
see how his torso is back here he's getting his hips to go forward and then as he comes through
he uses a lot of his torso torso to come through the actual throw and that's where he gets a lot of
his overall momentum from but very very stable on that front leg very controlled on that front leg
as he's coming through the throw also a little bit interesting of the finish where he's coming
all the way over to the side I know one of the big things that him at Tom house talked about is
that they want one arm kind of going this way so notice how his left arms over here right arms all
the way over there just something that I think is thing to overall consider next one let's go to is
Aaron Rogers this is another kind of different one here so this one is I think the best throw
out of the bunch I want to do all of them where he they're in kind of shorts or teen t-shirts
or not having pads essentially so one of the big things that Aaron Rogers does is he's gonna create
so much overall rotation within his lower body look at how much he tries to move in his lower
body as he's creating that that thrown coming through so he's creating all rotation and really
its rotation within his ankle his I mean he's not super stable within his ankle he's very loose look
how he starts off in all of his weights kind of on that inside part of the leg and then as he's
coming through he's he's rotating even pushes up off the ground rotates all the way to the outside
part of the foot same thing with the hip starts with that when he first steps he has a lot of
weight on the inside that rotates all the way very quickly and then does the same thing with the the
spine rotates all the way through at the spine and then finishes with his whole body all the
way across as well uses that that opposite leg to kind of come up to the side to help them stabilize
a little bit but that's something that is very very interesting very very important to notice as
you watch him throw notice also the elbow height and the position of the finish compared to Tom
Brady where he has that left hand really close to his chest and then his arm is also coming kind of
off to the side a little bit lower not so much of the aid like lean to the side as we saw with
like a Tom Brady's a little bit more upright in his posture but his is also leaning a lot
more with his lower bodies lower bodies all the way up to the side where II saw Tom Brady where
Tom Brady's lower body was facing a little bit more towards the target and then upper body was
way off to the side transition that into let's do Patrick mahomes why not this was actually an
interesting video because he's trying to throw as hard as he possibly can it's like a little
competition video between him and David Carr so this is is essentially watching a pitcher throw
okay so if you guys want to see what a pitcher is gonna look like when they're trying to throw
a football then why don't you just watch Patrick Mahomes because it's a sense the same thing he's
saying that when he was a pitcher he threw up to 96 miles an hour and again that's essentially war
watching here so notice big long stride there as he's loading up one of the things we do and hit
our actual Patrick mahomes right down as we break down what he does within that front leg not gonna
be able to do that as well at that front angle notice a very high elbow angle when he starts off
there and then drives down hard with that front elbow so he starts off high there drives down
hard and as he's driving down he leans over with the spine he has a very very stable leg but notice
how he keeps that his knee a little bit inside of his foot and then as he comes through he gets a
hard rotation to the outside with that that front leg and he also comes down hard during the actual
thrown and then finishes all the way to look how fast he's being he's able to move that arm so what
he's gonna try to do is he's gonna make it so he leans so far over the side with his momentum with
his body and also creates such a a elasticity within that front hip that he's gonna use all
that energy to then go down hard and really fling that arm and and end up everything for his upper
body is forward looking how his arm is really far forward his leg is very very straight but very
very stable and that back leg is kind of flinging off to the side as he finishes through which makes
it so he puts a lot of overall torque on the throw last one that we're going to do here is Drew Brees
Drew Brees is a very very interesting guy and what he does just because he's almost a combination of
all of them and so what we could see here is let's go and find a good one here notice also high elbow
right similar to what we saw at Patrick mahomes pretty high with that that arm and then also
pulls down hard with that arm and then it's also pretty straight with that front leg but as he's
coming through notice how he's gonna try to keep that that front arm to come right back down to to
his side he's not gonna try to go as far off to this side he's gonna be trying to come more down
here he's also gonna kind of fling that that leg off to the side a little bit there as he's coming
through that that off arm is going to stay close to that left chest it's not gonna come back across
this way like when Tom Brady does it's also not going to overly pull him down kind of like what
what Patrick Mahomes does so he tries to maintain a little bit better overall posture he is kind of
leaned over to the side a little bit but he's not coming down and forward kind of like Patrick mahomes
he's gonna be a little bit more upright a little bit more Tom Brady that way but with
the the ending of the arm I'd say a little bit more like Patrick mahomes and also with that the
stabilization with the front leg is a little bit more like Patrick mahomes work with a big odd
thing that Aaron Rodgers does is that he creates so much overall rotation within that hip and makes
it so he can get all the way over to that side alright so yeah guys I hope you guys liked
this video I would definitely if your if this is the first time you've seen one of our videos go
ahead and like and subscribe we are gonna be able to constantly training of our content we want to
make it more entertaining we want to make more people be able to understand what you're trying
to do within the thrill how you can be more effective than the throw there's not one way
to throw a football I hope everybody understands there's a million different ways but there's one
specific way team for you to throw the football we want to help you figure that out we want to help
you better understand your anatomy a lot of it has to do with what is your body height what is your
body size where do you have overall biomechanical strengths and biomechanical weaknesses and that
kind of went into a Tom Brady he's a little bit longer up top so he uses a long his length
up top as a advantage drew brees uses a little bit more on his whole body just because he's a
little bit of a smaller guy everybody's a little bit different every Rodgers has a lot of overall
range of motion within his hips so he uses a lot of that hip range of motion in order to throw so
yeah we want to help you be able to succeed as a quarterback so if you're interested go ahead and
click the link below and we'd be happy to add you into our program thanks and we will talk
to you guys soon subscribe down below and that way you can get updates on any of the new videos
that we get also if you want to check out some of our other breakdowns for speed and throwing
yet exercises also jumping mechanics videos a lot of great stuff within our Channel hope you enjoy
