When watching clips and games it doesn’t really seem like Myles Garret,Tj Watt or Arron Donald do anything fancy or special when facing an Oline men. They legit just push through, no special technique that nobody else does, no trickery they just push and get through extremely quickly and it’s all just physical. I know they’re strong dudes but most people in the NFL are especially at that position. What exactly makes someone like TJ watt or Nick Bosa better than any other starting edge?

Believe it or not it’s all technique. Where you put your hands, how that translates to your feet, understanding leverage, and where the o lineman has their weight
