Lol tell me you don't know s**t about Alex Gibbs and the standards they held runners to in the wide zone without telling me. The film above is titled "perfect outside zone" and there's a glaring flaw that would've driven Gibbs insane in the first 10 seconds. Also, taking a wasted jab step isn't decisiveness.
Gibbs used to rip into Terrell Davis for taking an extra step or hesitating a milisecond even after he was NFL MVP in 1998.
Ok, Alex Gibbs may rip a runner for taking "extra" steps, but players aren't robots so that's just him being a rigid irrational perfectionist.
The fact he chewed out a Hall of Fame RB while they were winning Super Bowls suggests that he's probably an unappeasable malignant narcissist; the type of hard ass boss who was praised for being "tough" back in the day, but really is nothing more than a bully.
Men like that are bad fathers who either crush their children's spirits or create bullies, and bosses that create hostile work environments.
Unnecessary steps is just bs considering that the linemen, defender, and gap are moving.
