"DEFEATING LEAD BLOCKS. (These blocks are more difficult to pick up since the linebacker is looking for the Running Back with the ball and may miss the Running Back coming in for the block.) Feet - the first step is directly toward the blocking offensive lineman... Knees - bent... Shoulders - the shoulder pads make contact with the lineman... Arms - the next contact is with the nearest forearm to the lineman.... Hands - next, the far palm forces the lineman off balance... Inside Linebacker. Feet - the first step is directly toward the blocking offensive lineman... Knees - bent... Shoulders - the shoulder pads make contact with the lineman... Arms - the next contact is with the nearest forearm to the lineman.... Hands - next, the far palm forces the lineman off balance.

"The Outside Linebacker Blocking a Running Back/Inside Linebacker Blocking a Guard.
Feet - about two steps from the running back, the linebacker takes a step to one side or the other, the next step is in the opposite direction... Near Hand - grabs behind the running back's shoulder pad... Far Arm - extends over the running back's head driving the arm into the running back's shoulder blade... Inside Shoulder - lowers... Inside Arm - moves forward and up... Hips - power past the blocker. "
