Expert Analysis
Brian Jerzak | Prep Redzone Scout
Backer was, far and away, the most impressive player on the field. Defensively, he made a great open field tackle on a swing pass. One of his most impressive plays was when he knifed into the backfield and took out the lead blocker so Luke Carrier could make the tackle near the goal line. Later, he came out of nowhere to knock a receiver out of bounds saving a touchdown. Late in the game, Backer deflected a pass. On offense, he spun off a tackler and picked up 20 yards when he should have been stopped for a short gain. He showed his speed to the outside on a run to the corner. The senior showed he could throw on the move. On a third and long, he spun and drove his way for a first down, dragging tacklers most of the way. Then, all on his own, he picked up three yards when he should have lost three yards.
