That man's pinky is doing a slant route.
Ryan post*
😂😂😂😂😂
No thats prolly more like a corner because he's going ouside (slent is to the middle😂
Ryan 💀😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
I bet that dude looks fancy af drinking tea
Danny Young bruh
Noooooooo 😂😂😂😂
😂 comment of the day 🏆
underappreciated comment lol
Oh man, awesome comment.
Baldy's pinky aside, Akiem Hicks was so eloquent and made it so fun and interesting to learn about all those nuances of line play. Dude's got a bright future in broadcasting or tv
Hicks w/is so charasmatic and so well spoken that he could be a great coach or commentator after his career is over.
Interior line is 2nd most important position in Belichicks defense. You can hear the tutelage of coach through Hicks analysis. Very detailed observations
Wish Belichick kept him but hes drafted so many good D lineman recently or brought them in
I like him he’s well spoken and classy.
Another Belichick disciple
"He's saying, lord I love you. But iam taking him to the promise land" 😂😂
This is a great video, but all I saw was this mans pinky.
That's not right!! 🤣😂😂🤣😂🤣
Bro I said the sMe thing
All I saw was how dominant my man Akiem is and will continue to be.
He said he used to play football. I guess its a injury that ne cant recover from fully?
He*
That man's pinky finger no longer wants anything to do with the rest of the hand 😂😂😂 #IMDONEWITHYOUGUYS
Devin mccampbell 😭😭😭
💀 💀 ⚰️
GTFOH 😂😂😂😂😂
Thanks bro, you made my day 😂😂😂
Yo ass got me hollering 😂😂😂
This is what football content should be. The game is so much deeper than we get to see
Looking forward to Akeem Hicks in the broadcast space someday. He's got it.
Akiem Hicks is one of the most overlooked players in the league. As a bears fan this dude is dope as hell.
Correct
🐻⬇️
@@butkusfan23 You know it
🐻⬇️
Him and Eddie Goldman both super underrated
Fun fact, Akiem is also our only fullback right now.
we got rid of Mike Burton?!
@@ItsYaBoiMoseph He signed with the Saints
Hahaha....just dont expect him to catch a TD out of the backfield 😅.
@@philosophy20 I wouldn't bet on that! I can totally can see that happening once. Nagy's bag of tricks is DEEP and Akiem has all the talent necessary to pull it of. He moves like a Ballerina for a 6'5" 330 lbs killing machine.
We have Ryan Nall and I could see us moving Davis to fullback.
A moment of silence for this man's pinky please😔🙏
I played offensive line in high school 73-75. It's a totally different game in the pit. A combination of judo,karate,and summo now. But this guy Hicks is a smart player and should go into coaching.
I was staring at that mans pinky this whole time..😂😂
I woulda been tried to get my pinky straightened. It's almost like Baldy shows it off as like a badge of honor or sum lol
Dude's trying to one-up Ronnie Lott, smh
My Juco Head Coach (Played for the Cardinals in the 80's) has the same exact trophy lol. Definitely a pride thing.
Yes a badge of honor. My pinky was broken also. Its a conversation in it self and make people curious about you.
Think cauliflower ear with wrestlers
Try Anthony Munoz, that is another pinky guy.
Dude we need more of these we can really learn from the pros
Exactly. Not to say that high school coaches can’t help with technique and fundamentals but there are levels to this. Current and ex nfl players have devoted their entire lives to the craft and have so much knowledge that can help kids get better across the nation. There were no o line technique breakdowns when I was in high school until a few days after I graduated; joe Thomas did a technique breakdown and immediately shed light on about three or four of my recurring stance and get off issues. Please NFL put keep putting these out!
Let us know when you find some pros... on the bears. It's almost an oxymoron
Bears pros... at eating L's. They're favorite restaurant is Shay sharpes bistro... all you can eat L's
@@beentheredonethat856 it’s still an nfl roster. Go tryout for the bears since it’s so easy
Brian Baldinger's pinky: *exists*
Randy White's facemask: "I'm about to end this man's whole life"
These position-specific clips are amazing, keep them coming. Doesn’t hurt that Hicks is really charismatic. Maybe do an extra vid on Baldinger’s messed up hand, I think Reggie White did that
Ma man Akiem is a MONSTER.... It's gonna keep showing! The Bears defense has been hibernating the past 5 seasons. We got the right pieces now 😌.
🐻⬇️
PHILosophy 1990 vikes fan here man you guys defense is tough as nails mack was just the final piece nfc north are gonna have hard time with you guys especially with bisky progessing cant wait till the season starts
Jets fan here, the bears gotta get a redemption super bowl run after that Cody parkey incident. Y'all are stacked in offense and defense, it's about time you show the nation your true colors
@@biglicker4473.....✊🏾Much respect man. I'm excited with what our GM has built these past 5 seasons. Our former DC,Vic Fangio, setting the foundation for our defense. The offense has the right coach to build them up too. Now its about chemistry for Trubisky and company. Last year was the defense, but it's all on Tru this season.
@@KingYakthekingofyaks.....We need REDEMPTION man. You are right! We have the right pieces, just gotta stay as healthy as we can, ya know? Thanks for Buster Skrine also lol. I hope our front 7 helps his production like im anticipating 😬.
Will Amos be a huge loss especially with Clinton Dix taking a step back in talent the last few years ?
Wish Adrian stayed but that D is still stacked I expect a ring this year and I ain’t even a Bears fan 🔥💯
On top of being an absolute beast on the field, he's amazingly engaging off the field.
Please consider a career in broadcasting.
Rather listen to him than the guys they have on MNF right now for sure!
Easily one of the most underrated players in the NFL.
He’s a great guest. True Pro
Damn he’s smart. He’d make a great coach for whenever he retires.
one of the reasons we're the Monsters of the Midway again!
see you all in the playoffs.
I'm loving these defensive interviews way more.
Him off the field makes me scared but off he's so nice
king cipher07 what? You crazy.
@@ryanjcure you just contradicted yourself.
typo there, or should we just use internetting speak to translate?
Love Hicks, he is a true Bears monster! Welcome back big 🐻&🐻⬇️
With the signing of Mack Hicks got lost in the shuffle, but that man is still a major part in how that Bears Def works. He is an absolute beast and if you double/tripple Mack you are setting yourself up for failure b/c Hicks is a beast to stop 1x1. And Hicks is making sure the new guys on the line know how to do it also. Love this dude, loved him since the Bears signed him.
I came here to say something negative but I really don’t have anything bad to say about this guy
TopWaver MLK look at his pinky
favorite player on my team
If you have space for negativity you have more room for positivity! Just change your mindset!
Go back and watch it until you find something negative because happy people don't, come and comments in comment sections. Unless they are undercover journalist writing the 50th article about how toxic the TH-cam comment section is
Jon Brooks bro shut your sensitive ass up , it was a goddamn joke, I’m a saints fan & I loved Hicks ever since he played for us.. take your soft ass to a ballerina video
Bro I thought I was tripped when I saw that guys pinky. Lol 😂
made you all throw up huh ??
"He saying 'Lord I love you' but I'm taking him to the promised Land" lmao 😂😂🤣😭
Bro his finger was throwing me off…I felt like Austin Powers in gold member lol the finger was all I could see😂😂😂
MY MANNN a real monster of the midway can’t wait to see him get to work in training camp soon🐻👇
This is so helpful as a defensive tackle 💪🏽
Lance Navy it’s even better for me because I’m a freshman d tackle and hicks is my neighbor
I Surrender oh well that must be nice to have that beast as your neighbor
@@isurrender3640 woah cool. hes my cousin
@@rileyfreeman9726 really?
@@isurrender3640 same and I’m the nose so I’m dealing with 2 people most of the time so I struggle to get the qb but now I feel motivated and hope I do better next practice
What a cool dude, looking forward to another great Bears season and hopefully a 💍🤞
3 years later and we are balls :( trubisky was not the problem
Master class right here. A player of Hicks caliber has been sorely missed on the Bears D-line.
Another great film breakdown with a player. I loved the one with Jamal Adams a couple weeks ago too. Very interesting and helpful hearing the players pre-snap keys.
It’s really cool to see how the tape they watch during the week informs their play. Some guys don’t seem to take that seriously, but the great ones always do. I like how Hicks watches a ton on his own time.
ian langford I hope he does a eddy Jackson one
Yea it's easy to get hung up on the athletic ability of NFL players, but the very best ones know how to study on top of being g physically dominant.
Big key: wrist is the weakest part of an offensive lineman- hands on the wrist + swipe!
Bet that guy can put on a mean finger puppet show! 🖐🏼 👀
Defensive linesmen are some of the most cerebral players on the field. Great job by Hicks.
this literally helps me a lot before my Tournament. being a guy from India I gain most of my knowledge from videos, and breakdown like this is really Heaven.
Definitely deserve more recognition
I loved this film breakdown, makes me want to go play Madden!!
yUnG EJ soooo true
I love watching Hicks work! Him along with Mack was soooo awesome. And listening to him talk, it shows you what an All pro type player is and does. A true professional
Baldys finger is like that because he got it stuck in randy white's Jersey and it was mauled
Ssy word???
THANK YOU FOR AN ACTUAL ANSWER!
Facemask*
Love it! Akiem hicks is a Monster!
🐻⬇️
2:00 his finger has my SHOOK
This series is incredible. More please
This series is incredible, keep them coming!
It's crazy to see how technical a big, tall, strong guy like Hicks is.
I am really enjoying these breakdowns: getting to know nice players and realizing that football really is chess being played on human bodies!
This is the best series. I dont even really watch football but i love seeing people breakdown their thinking in any sport. NBA, MLB, NHL, and every other league needs to do this.
This was a great video, I’m more impressed of his knowledge and quick reactions
“Take my strong hand”
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👍🏾👍🏾
Gold
So glad that he's in our side GoBears ... Wanted to say something else but that pinky is in the middle of my thoughts 🙈🙈
This man makes playing the line look so brilliant
This was an excellent breakdown and Akiem is very well-spoken and communicated very well his thought prosess.
I'm more offensive-line centric when I look at TH-cam videos that does me good to see videos from players lining up on the other side of the ball.
Jeez Hicks is so smart. Great football IQ
As a vikings fan, I fear this man. Guy knows the game and is a physical beast.
Rick Chyczewski I’m sorry you’re a Vikings fan
Being a lions fan,it's refreshing to see so many great players on the bears roster..Hes a freak for sure! I think he's got really good at rushing the passer. His moves are nasty..luv watching the big guy lol
We need more NFL film sessions, love these videos
Hicks and Casey are extremely underrated
Even as a packers fan, I still admire this guy.
“Grab my strong hand”😂
As someone who used to play offensive and defensive line, this video is so damn cool watching him demonstrate pass rush moves.
Yo I am Going to use this in a real game
Bro can you please with today’s medical technology fix his finger
Turner9090 I would wager that in his profession, that’s a sign of pride...his wounds from years in the league.
Nah at this point any attempt to fix it would damage the nerves even more than they probably already are
3:50 I luv this kinda stuff. Like Kobe details. I’ve watched Jamaal & luck. This looks promising
Never get tired of watching these. Please do a top linebacker film session next. Would love to see their perspective & the tricks of the trade from the LB position.
This video is so good that it has more likes then views
?
@@ifthefooshitswearit.1802 your late
@@josephgibson4250 unless it's an inside joke, which in that case yes I'm late, I doubt it.
If you were on time you'd know what I'm talking about
@@josephgibson4250 I will concede. Idk. I was 40 min late. Faith enough good sir.
This breakdown looks even better because baldy was an offensive lineman
This is SO COOL to watch I just wish it was longer. Hicks is a damned beast and he's a highly intelligent beast.
8:47 - 8:54 - Imagine an explosive head-on collision, with that level of violence, that level of aggression, and hearing yourself growling for it all on every down, in every game, in every practice, for decades.
i was more focused on dudes pinky😂
Here after he’s with the bucs lol
Yes Sir! Vea and Hicks oO
So interesting to listen to Hicks talk about moves and his process for playing at his position. Very articulate in explaining things so a guy like me can understand
One of the most underrated players in the nfl. Great combo of size strength and quickness.
Man he has a job waiting on him when he's done playing football as a defensive coordinator or coach..🤯🤔
My Saints look silly for letting Akiem get away :(
Pats too
Tbh your Saints have looked silly for a while now
@@WorstTimelineInhabitant Yeah, bein in the hunt for the SuperBowl looks pretty silly. lol
Vellinious if you think about it how much better would the Saints d be with hicks on the inside of the d line
Can’t get enough of these. So insightful
love this series!
Bruh if one more video gets uploaded and it's not too 100 I'm gonna oooooh I'm gonna.....
I prefer these over Top 100
Top 100 isn’t supposed to come out until July 25th or something
Top 10 players in NFL
1: Drew Brees
2: Saquon Barkley
3: Stephon Gilmore
4: Michael Thomas
5: JJ Watt
6: George Kittle
7: Aaron Donald
8: Jason Kelce
9: Luke Kuechly
10: Von Miller
I picked one person for different positions
As much as I hate Tom Brady. He's definitely the best quaterback
theo smith I hat him too but I didn’t not put him on the list because of that. IMO the only reason people say he’s so great is because of SB rings but that’s a team stat. Unlike all the records and stats drew Brees has broken
This video is gold for D line players.
Oh my goodness, Akiem Hicks was an awesome guest! I love getting to see the intricacies and finesse moves of the trenches!
WHERE IS THE TOP 100 PLAYERS NFL
That show is trash and very inaccurate
Tom Brady Shady #CheatSquad#SpyOnYou#WOAT okay don’t care
July 22nd is the premiere
I dislike because of his pinky at 2:05
This video is such a great resource for young D linemen. Gives them great technique to study/practice. I wish Ed Reed woulda done one when I was in high school playing high saftey.
Need more vids like this pleeeease, this series has been killlllller.
Like if the bears are going to win the Super Bowl 😤🐻⬇️
Josue Torres doink
Not with that QB they got lmao
@@joejones1991 with that QB they got*
@@b_lake8312 cut*
arsenal4thew oh and don’t let me forget the other doink
Anyone can look like an All-pro going against Justin McCray lol dude can’t even tie his shoes
Akiem is a beast regardless tho
Erik Rodriguez didn’t realize Aaron Donald died
John Walshe df are you talking about?
Keep showing the big guys love. The vids are dope
What a great look into the science of playing defensive lineman! (and it is indeed a science) kinda want more videos like this breaking down other positions! Oh, and Go Bears!
I just binged like 15 of these game pass film sessions and this was my favorite.
These tips have been helping me a lot! 💪
love these breakdown vids
Loved the knowledge.
Akiem Hicks!!! LOVE this man! His football IQ is outstanding, he's got a great personality, he's a great defensive leader, well spoken, always amped up, and just a friggin amazing player. I don't know how the Bears do it but they find classy hard working players who are also incredibly talented. I don't think I've loved a post 85 Bears team this much ever. We are oozing class and greatness. Nagy and Pace are to thank for that. I love summertime but I'm ready for football already. I need to see my Bears smash the Pack opening night pronto!
I love this vids so fun y’all needa make more
I love these film sessions!
Absolutely love this man amazing player
