HOUSE Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Tre’Davious White is about to enter his third year in the NFL. After a stellar rookie season in 2017, some thought he may have taken a step back this past year. White finally got an answer to a question on how can he be more consistent and he asked one of the greatest cornerbacks in NFL history for the answer. “What does it take to take your game to the next level, year in and year out and keep that production consistent,” White asked. Don’t ever get full, make sure your plate is always empty,” Deion Sanders said. “Don’t ever get full. Don’t ever look in the rearview mirror or look ahead, look at the present right there before you. Study. Know your opponents, know the offensive coordinators that you’re playing against. These guys they change names, they change games. But mainly those offensive coordinators stay the same. But mainly, get your legs in shape that is your money. Make sure they’re strong so you can bump at kickoff and late in the fourth. Lastly, do not miss opportunities.” https://www.buffalobills.com/news/bills-today-deion-sanders-advice-for-tre-white 9 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Study your opponent and the OC, what more advice should he have given? How to play an inside technique better? How to use your hands without getting PI called? I am not saying these are what he needs but examples of what could have been said if he had studied Tre's film and found areas of improvement. It is obvious he did not and thus had to generalize.

TigerJ Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Granted, it may seem like obvious advice, but the fact is there are players who get lazy, who don't dedicate themselves to film work and taking care of their bodies.

Peace Frog Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 (edited) There's no denying the talent and physical skills of Deion Sanders. However, I lost all respect for him during this game. Atlanta Falcons at Buffalo Bills November 22, 1992 Rich Stadium, Orchard Park, NY 1 2 3 4 Total Atlanta Falcons (4-7) 0 7 0 7 14 Buffalo Bills (9-2) 28 10 0 3 41 Scoring Summary 1st Quarter Atl Buf Buf 4:00 Carwell Gardner 2 run (Steve Christie Kick) 0 7 Buf 8:11 Pete Metzelaars 3 pass from Jim Kelly (Steve Christie Kick) 0 14 Buf 10:25 Andre Reed 15 pass from Jim Kelly (Steve Christie Kick) 0 21 Buf 14:33 Kenneth Davis 1 run (Steve Christie Kick) 0 28 2nd Quarter Atl Buf Buf 1:02 Kenneth Davis 64 run (Steve Christie Kick) 0 35 Buf 14:33 FG Steve Christie 47 0 38 Atl 14:48 D.Sanders 73 kickoff return on lateral from T.Smith (Norm Johnson Kick) 7 38 4th Quarter Atl Buf Buf 3:09 FG Steve Christie 18 7 41 Atl 13:54 Drew Hill 1 pass from Wade Wilson (Norm Johnson Kick) 14 41 Deion Sanders returns a lateral from a Steve Christie squib kickoff for a TD right before halftime to give Atlanta their first points of the game. The Falcons were having their butts handed to them by us at that point in the game but he does his little 'vogue strut' to the end zone as he runs by the final Bills player (Steve Christie) for the score. I don't know why but it just reeked of 'Look at me, look at me!' and as such, I found it quite selfish and annoying. You can watch it in all its nauseating glory at the 4:31 mark in the video below.

purple haze Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 3 hours ago, Just Joshin' said: Seems kinda generic advice. Simple advice is often times the best advice. Tre White is already a professional football player. He's already had success. He already knows techniques, etc. Mindset can take players to the next level. Prime spoke of mindset. Read between the lines. "Product knowledge" takes time. It's not acquired quickly. What has to be sacrificed in order to study opponents in-depth or offensive coordinators? What has to be sacrificed in order to maintain physical ability. Like film study, maximizing one's physique takes focus. If you're plate is always empty you're always working. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Formerly Allan in MD Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Best advice Sanders can give White is that when you're washed up following a stellar career, find Dan Snyder. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
