Summary: <br> Football analyst John Owning, an instructor and international competitor in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, stops by Matt Waldman's RSP Cast for a conversation about the martial art and how it helps him analyze football. <br> If you <a href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLX1Nx57UJgZnFoNiGj7K9qxCSXZVMtENm">subscribe to the RSP Film Room</a>, you probably saw <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YpojexfFu5Y">Owning and I break down Los Angeles Chargers defensive end Joey Bosa's film</a> while he was at Ohio State or <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27npqAqpXlk">Cleveland Browns DE Myles Garrett at Texas A&M</a>. Owning, a graduate of Dan Hatman's <a href="https://www.scoutingacademy.com/">Scouting Academy</a>, brought up Bosa's footwork as an edge rusher that needed to be addressed in the NFL — an insight that few, if any, mentioned pre-draft.<br> <br> Owning and I spent a half-hour discussing a variety of topics focused on Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and football, including his thoughts on Chuck Liddell's PR event with the Browns:<br> <br> * Owning's 100-pound transformation from a 275-pound lineman to an international competitor in BJJ.<br> * Where BJJ and football have commonalities.<br> * The football positions that would benefit most from BJJ training — there's at least one that will surprise you.<br> * Why leverage is more important than power on the football field — including player examples.<br> * Why Chuck Liddell's PR event in Cleveland was not a worthwhile teaching session for the Browns and a disappointing representation of the martial art applied to football.<br> <br> This was another fantastic guest appearance.
