Gripped it exactly like Rivers and my first throw was intercepted
I laughed hahha
my last pass is always intercepted when i do his grip
I didn’t even get to throw, the snap from the shotgun got intercepted
Dallas Knows Jak your first pass can be your last
Michael Del Castillo Hahaha! I just watched a re play of their game on Sunday evening and he himself was intercepted two times... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
i've never wanted to throw a football inside my house more than right now
Just go outside lol.
😂😂
Just build a soft spot with pillows and let it fly, lol
Bro right !!! And it’s 2 am rn 😂
we’re all on social distancing and i keep bouncing basketballs around my house... lmao everyone hates it but its so boring
Most importantly, how does Nate Peterman grip the ball?
Nate the goat
The GOAT doesn't grip the ball.
using the force
Thumb on the laces😂😂
Rogue_JR_ no pinky on the tip stupid
For some reason Lamar jackson grips it between his inner elbow and shoulder. Interesting
NewEnglandMixes that’s why he’s a running back
Dandre Johnson
That’s worse for teams, they’re losing to a team with no Quarterback, huge disadvantage 😂.
Cormel fr 😂
Seemed to work against y’all 2 weeks ago tho 🙂
Is that why we beat u guys? 😂
The most I’ve ever heard Matt Ryan talk.
Matty talks alot on the field lol. He's just all business off of it.
@@dembirdscanfly he doesn't watch games..he wouldn't know
"Get f*cking set!"
"My uncle told me how to hold the ball" now i have heard it all
Tuomas Kallio are you hinting at something dirty? Or nasty
Everybody dressed like they just got up or worked out and Tom Brady over here looking fresh in a suit 😂 💀
You unlock that skin after you win 6 SBs
He is a business man now.....
Yo Bro underrated comment
Max level 😂
He only throws checkdowns there’s no need for working out
2:35 that throwing motion was cool
.
Oh my god
I keep watching it
Man Russell seems like a great dude to be around.
they are all the best, its just us fans judge them based on how they play. would love to have a shot with anyone them really and im mostly a steeler fan
MoshiPlays Ben’s a rapist? I’m not trying to sound rude, but do you have any evidence?
He is. Russ is a great Person And the Best QB in the Game. Gohawks
Yeah, he just seems like a chill dude
🏋🏻♀️🧊🥂👸🏼🤴🏽
the question is why is Baker in this video and not Drew
Yes!!!
Drew is busy trying to win another SB.
@King Tubbzzz Tom Brady doesn't have very many personal accolades. You can use team stats all you want but skill wise and talent wise, Brady isnt the best. But try telling a Pat's fan that their God is really human.
This is a valid question. I'd rather see YOU than Baker
Probably because he is an NFL quarterback.
I would just pay attention to Brady and Wilson
If your hands are 10” yeah, if not I’d watch Murray.
@@cormel6895 I would pay attention to Brady, Garoppolo, Big Ben, and Wilson.
@@rockyjeterwebb1718 exactly
What About Rodgers Brees and Mahomes
Rocky Jeter Webb
That wouldn’t make sense, if you do that while having average sized hands you’ll fumble. Just like you wouldn’t take lessons from Kawhi or Jordan on how to hold a basketball.
4:47 All of a sudden, I was being yelled at.
Poor dan orlovsky
😂
Corvette corvette
“If I can find my second finger on the lace
Everything falls into place”
Matt Ryan got bars, Maybe that’s why he’s called Matty Ice
Since Julian Edelman is the best QB in the history of the NFL, getting some nuggets of wisdom from him next time would be cool.
@Oliver McCall 👍 Yup. His story is pretty well known by now.
You can’t forget about the goat Sanu though.
@@chasem3117 they're both challenging each other to be the best backup for Tom Brady
Jay Cutler: *hold my cigarette*
@eoe123321 well bill belichick got rid of jimmy garopollo last year and there 9-1
I wanna see how Warren Moon does it. Dude has the tightest spirals ever.
True. His spirals were the tightest.
idk, man.. I loved Moon`s throws but i think R Wilson throws a better spiral than he did.. just my humble opinion
Alex Voicu pretty bad opinion in my humble opinion
Brett Favre too
Matty ice just passed Warren in passing yards for 10th all time. That’s pretty special
Tom Brady has the best arm in bad weather, he slings it in horrible conditions like nothing!
Probably deflated😂
@@MercifulExorcist
You do realize if it's defeated it can make it harder to throw, right?
@@j.franklin21 spoken like a true patriots fan
SHOW TIME bruh im a Giants fan but I'm sick of ppl saying the Pats cheat. That's you're only excuse? Atleast I have the right mind of using the SB losses
You can go all the way back to the Tuck Rule game in regard to Brady’s grip
The crazy thing is that by this point Tom has seen everything in football, he ready for anything
Only one person in the NFL who has seen more and came up clutch in more situations
even others teams signal calling on illegal recordings
rickhxc wow so funny!
I changed from gripping it how Patrick Mahomes grips it to how Josh Allen and Russell Wilson grip it and I had more control over my throw than I ever have in my whole life. For the first time the ball went where I wanted it to go everytime without having to try.
As soon as Russell Wilson said "its like flicking a booger" I instantly got it and knew what he meant. I've flicked many boogers at teachers when I was in school. Thanks to Wilson I now sling my footballs with the same pinpoint accuracy as when I flick my boogers. Goes exactly where I want it to go. lmao
Exactly what i was thinking
@@Yep529 hahahaha. We're sick huh?
@@MattyDemello noooo 😂 i think its completely normal!
Back when I was in 4th grade, my teacher would eat in the class before we went off to lunch. One time he left the room for a few seconds and as soon as he did that I put a booger on top of his food in his food box before sneezing on his noodles 😂
@@twstdreality lmao
Josh Allen: "My dad wanted me to be the quarterback . . . "
". . . But I ended up being a wildcat running back my entire NFL career"
dudes racking in the fantasy points for me tho
I mean he really doesn't run the ball like that anymore. Plays in the pocket way more this year
This aged well
Well then
Definitely wanna watch Aaron Rodger's and Dan Marino best spirals I've ever seen.
Those guys have such big hands that their grips are very unorthodox. My grip is closest to Matt Ryan's because that's pretty much the classic grip that he uses.
I think Wilson has the biggest hands out of them all
@@haydencook682 Hit Ciara up on twitter and find out...
@ No you don't.
God I love Matt Ryan. Please play another 10 years
GREEN EIGHTYYY!!!! GREEN EIGHTY SET HUUUUUUT!!!!
Definitely - the Saints will be in the market for a franchise QB next season.
Russell is so charismatic and energetic, it's easy to see, even in this brief interview about something as mundane as how he holds a ball. He's my favorite current NFL player!
Now it’s cheeks lol
Funny enough Brady's grip is just like his idols Joe Montana, although Brady's apprentice, Jimmy Garoppolo grips the ball exactly like Aaron Rodgers.
Garoppolo sucks, the 49ers just have an excellent offense
@@MrSomebodyyy lol with 1st and 2nd year receivers hahahaha. yeah I don't think so Garoppolo is 17-3 for a reason.
Garoppolo is very good. As far as "rookies"(first few years of playing) go, such as Mahomes, Prescott, Mayfield, etc, he is top three.
sweego thats why he missed a wide open sanders to win the Super Bowl 🤷♂️
That's amazing what Brady said... "Snow is a great advantage. The defenders are very slippery and when they get slowed down that's great for me"
Most people think poor weather conditions like Rain and Snow are horrible for a QB but he's right, Throwing a football accurately in the Snow and Rain is probably alot easier than trying to cover All-Pro receivers Running 4.4s all around the field
if you have big hand yes
Brady "I like mine a little deflated, it's easier to throw and catch"
El Mero Mero no
Yes
El Mero Mero it’ll feel like a nerf then always spirals
😂😂😂
El Mero Mero lol I was waiting for someone to mention that in the comments
This is a cool video. Always interesting to see how the best of the best do it. Baseball pitchers talking about finger placement on specific pitches has such subtlety involved as well
"Flick the booger off your finger" - Russell Wilson
It’s just like a batting stance in baseball. I’m really glad I watched this video, very insightful and fun
"Grip deez"
- Johnny Football
yessir
@@xanderleilua2227 lol
Man, me and my coach had this talk today (only on practice squad). I'm great at touch, but at deep ball I might as well thrown the INT. Idk how dudes are good at it. Love the videos
Coach Bill Bilichick, I like mine with the latest James Bond Go Pro 007 camera hidden in the laces. LOL 😂
I saw Matt Ryan's NFL debut in Atlanta. Everybody talks about some long TD pass to a wide open receiver that my dead grandmother could have completed His best play was on a roll out when he came face to face with a linebacker, juked him to make him think he was going to try to run, thereby buying some time to complete a pass about 10 or 15 yards downfield. I then definitely knew he was the real deal.
Baseball is such a good sport to transition into QB from. These baseball/football QB hybrids are so good at throwing on the run and at different arm angles
2:21 Matt Ryans Voice Crack
Voices tend to do that from a human being when they speak.
To summarize the video: It all doesnt matter its all personal feeling
Great video! I just realized that I've been gripping the football all wrong my entire life when I play QB with friends.
How do you grip it? Curious if it’s the same as me
All these increbile QB's talking about how they hold the football when they're on the field... Then Dan Orlovsky comes out of nowhere to say the closing bit.. hilarious
Did help colts get the first pick in the 2012 draft so
G
This used to fascinate me when I was younger. Grip evolved as I got bigger and stronger. The ball definitely plays a part and how it feels in the hand. Troy Aikman had a pretty interesting grip back in the day.
Maybe that's why Aikman threw so many ducks. Should've had his fingers on the laces.
@@mvpfocus idk mvpfocus he threw a pretty ball back in his prime.
@@benmarino1913 Aikman had a few great years. But, for the most part, Aikman was just a game manager, and threw a particularly wobbly ball. But, hey. Peyton Manning also threw plenty of ducks, and he holds most of the passing records. So, it's really just a style thing. Funny thing is both Aikman and Manning had terrible rookie seasons. But, look how they both ended up.
"Like flickin' a booger"....words of wisdom!
Sweet. I just learned Russell Wilson and I use the same grip style.
Brady 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
However Baker is doing it, just do the opposite, and you'll be just fine......
Idk I think I’d have fun throwing 25 TDs my rookie year
He's actually very accurate
Nick Bemo LoL why are you bringing up last year talk about this year
John Doe idk man maybe because a couple bad games against good teams doesn’t define your career
Lmboo
My grandson will love 💕 this.
I learned how to grip and throw a football from a Drew Brees video.
Facts
Brady has the best grip of all time and has the rings to prove it
Q the ball comes out in tight spirals every time.
Which video? The Sport science Video?
humanpwns that’s the one lol
This was dope.
Thank you!!!
The JuCo I work for teaches our QBs to throw without the laces since we use an RPO/Quick passing game.
Interviewer: so what is your grip on the football?
Cam Newton: my what?
Interviewer: your grip, on the football... what is it?
Cam Newton: Nah, I just drop it.
I played high school football gripping the football exactly like Tom Brady. My coach taught us well
Keep posting football tips like these
2:00 this man looks like a giant
Matt Ryan: Grip it like you’re trying to choke the laces
I love how Carson said back in the day when he is 27
2nd with pinkie and 5th with ring finger. That's what Peyton taught me during my teenage years and it works great (after practicing it of course).
No one said you can’t learn to throw a football lol I 62 and our grandson will love this experience !
In Russ we trust
I was hoping to see Matt Stafford, that guy has a canon for an arm. I wonder how he grips it🤔
He grips it with his hand
I heard he puts his fingers on the ball
Like a shot put
I used to have a Baker Mayfield kind of grip then one day in practice in high school I changed to Matt Ryan grip after i realized my hands grew
I wanna see more of this
Tom Talking about the giants... His Kryptonite in the Super Bowl.
tom brady got one of the best spiral throw ever
I’d say Mahomes
Glaze4K Lol you’re tripping dude, you obviously haven’t watched Brady play if you think his spiral isn’t even close to Rodgers.
one of the many reasons hes the best to ever touch a football
I wish this video was longer
This video was super interesting
2:18"If I can find the you know the ring finger on that second lace, I think everything else just falls into place"
Breakitdown - Matty Ice yow.
I think we can all agree know one is gonna try and throw like baker mayfield
Thank You
Jeff George, John Elway& Troy are my at Favourite Grippers
Josh Allen and Matt Ryan described a very similar grip
Tom Brady: get off my lawn with your grips young guys
j/k love the GOAT
Haha that’s awesome it actually worked for me in 1 min and I’m throwing straight 😎 Thank you
My all time goats are Purdy, Brady, Rodgers, Montana!
i never really thought about how i held or threw the ball. I would play football as a kid my position was always qb I took to throwing quickly. Now that i think about it I spin the football off with my middle and index. As a kid i would watch Joe Montana work his magic. Throwing was 2nd nature for me as for precision that needs some attention
I gripped like Matt Ryan, the first thing I did was choke a 24 point lead
And the first thing that came in my mind is why do people still joke about 28-3
@@Azel002 27-3*
1:31 some old dude, I couldn't remember the name
I grip it exactly like josh Allen. I keep liking this kid more and more every week
It depends on the size of ur hand an your comfort
Russle Wilson really was about the “letting it ride” lifestyle even before being a Bronco
Broncos country let’s ride broncos country let’s ride
Baker Teaching how to throw interceptions ❤️
3:30 i can definitely tell that this was made 3 years ago right now
I really wanted to see Matthew Stafford in this. So I could throw a football through a person.
Ikr, it's insane how fast he lasers that thing
Josh Allen should be describing how he ties his cleats.
best ESPN content ever.
2:30 i dont know why but Matt Ryan imitating the ball leaving your hands is hypnotizing
2:35
1:06 looks like Tom baby is staring at the camera.
I was expecting a lesson from Brees, Rodgers, Mahones or even Watson and not Mayfield and Allen. C'mon man!!
want a lesson from allen now
They all playoff qbs now
Easy to forget how big a football is. Never fails to impress me how these guys throw missiles
I either have to fingers on it I do that most of the time sometimes I use three
“Elbow your brother
Flick the booger of your finger”
-Peyton Manning
Sam Browning from the old commercial? 😂😂😂 that’s how I learned too
I want to know how Uncle Rico grips and throws the ball over them mountains!
Jared goff might not be the best overall qb but his throws are always great. I would like to see his grip.
I do pointer and index off laces and ring on second and pinky on fourth
Disappointed that we don't have Rodgers showing us his grip
he throws only hail mary
Whatever Tom Brady says, I’m doing
Thank you Dan we love you
I cant imagine holding the ball without the laces on my fingers
Russell has the best release
Have you seen Dashawn’s release!?
Russell throws to unknown players Watson has Hopkins and fuller yet still has a lower pass % plus Wilson deep ball is the best in the game no Debate at all
@ChizzloVEVO it's those baseball backgrounds
Russ might have the best deep balk but Brady has the best release
“A little ball deflation and your good”
-Tom Brady
Connor Wacker actually deflation doesn’t make the ball easier to throw it makes it easier to catch
Don't forget about the air pocket in your grip
Im Australian, I play Division 2 rugby League, and I just bought my first American Football!
That’s cool how do you like it so far
@@_deolarte yeah enjoying it alot
@@bradanjae that’s cool hope you have a good time with it
I enjoy watching Drew Brees and Russell Wilson throw.
