"Hi this is Sean Hobson for Expert Village. When talking about playing cornerback, the start of every play always includes a back peddle. You've got to exercise the back peddle properly or one, you'll be off balance, two, your receiver is going to go by you, and three, you're not going to be able to cover the play and react to it the way that you should be. So first of all of course it starts with a good stance. Once we figure out how our receiver is going to play us, then we can either get to the outside or to the inside or give him a cushion or not. Once the play starts I want to be in my good position, down and in an athletic stance. Now once the receiver comes off the line the first thing we want to do is take a big step backward. When you back peddle, it's not tiny little back peddle steps. What you want to do is, those first couple of steps you want to take really big steps. One, two, and when you're doing that you're looking in the backfield trying to pick up the quarterback. Then, once the receiver has gotten to where he's up next to you, then you're going to go ahead and open your hips and start to run with the receiver. So the first thing that we want to do when we start our back peddle is we want to have good balance, take a deep step, we want to keep everything balanced together, keep our body straight so we're not leaning back, and so we're not leaning too far forward. We want to have good balance in our back peddle and that's going to keep us in this play and then we can cover the receiver effectively."
