Chris Cooley is one of the more well-known TEs in the game, but he doesn't get the run-blocking credit like most receiving TEs. He may appear a bit undersized, but that only helps him because he's quicker than most LBs when running routes, and also catches well in coverage.
Also, when Mike Shanahan decides to run a draw or screen play, he's big and quick enough to block the DBs. Or, he can get them out of the play selling the pass with his solid route running skills. Atwater loved to smash anyone on the other team, and did so every time he took the field.
LaRon is great at stopping the run, times the ball well enough to breakup a pass or knock a WR, as well as filling in wherever needed. That means when a LB blitzes, as the strong safety, he'll roll his coverage down to fill that vacant zone left open by the blitzing LB. In turn, the play puts more pressure on the QB, fills the zone vacated by the blitz, and puts Landry in a position to make plays. Zone coverage is his weakness, although it's still pretty solid, along with his field awareness.
Ever since he first handed the ball to Bo Jackson in "Tecmo Bowl," Jon Robinson has been mesmerized by the world of sports video games. He's been covering gaming professionally for over 15 years, starting his career writing as "Johnny Ballgame" for GamePro magazine before becoming the founding editor of IGN Sports.
