The verity of juke moves)

[edit]

When thinking about the "juke move" or "side step" I have come to noticed when watching football games mainly NFL games that some players juke differently from each other. Now let's take Odell Beckham jr during is rookie season when watching his film I see that when he's going to perform a juke move that he does more of a pivot or more of a stop and go type of juke move. He uses the defenders momentum or their positioning to perform an effective juke move. Now when looking at NFL QB Lamar Jackson I can see that when he jukes he uses his momentum/speed to juke, as well when he does juke its more of a juke and go type of move as when he jukes pass a defender his speed doesn't decrease that much. Also, I observed when Lamar jukes the defender he keeps moving forward even when he is in a juking action. Now which juke move is the most effective? Now I believe when it comes to Odell Beckham juke move that its the best for his position (receiver) with the stop and go type of juke move and the use of defender positioning and momentum its perfect for his position as receiver already need to implement the action being able to stop and go the faster when running a route. But when it comes to Lamar Jackson as a QB I feel he possesses the best type of movement epescally for his position on the field. When there is no option to pass and goes for a run and his ability to juke as fast as he does and keep the momentum while going forward is a gift.
