English term or phrase: blind back
Bonjour,

sauriez-comment traduire le terme "blind back" lorsqu'il s'agit d'une position en football américain ? J'ai trouvé "linebacker", mais je ne sais pas si c'est exactement la même chose.

"I’m a blind back with the Miami Dolphins."

Arrière offensif gauche


Explanation:
une suggestion...

en phase d'attaque...et avec un quaterback droitier
Le Tackle gauche (LT) est celui qui est chargé de protéger le passeur. En effet, la plupart des QB étant droitiers, ils tournent le dos à leur côté gauche ou côté aveugle ("blind side") et sont donc vulnérables. Le LT a donc une énorme responsabilité sur les jeux de passe (Dans le cas d'un QB gaucher, les rôles sont naturellement inversés).

agree  Frankie J. B.: Semble pas mal! Forcément en attaque, puisqu'on protège pas le QB en défense... / "arrière offensif" tout court sinon?
