You’ve got to be able to move and get into your stance, and the left leg is going to be moving more as you angle to cut off the arc of the pass rush. It’s going to come down quick and be ready quick to take initial impact.
I think you will find that some coaches or technique guys teach think the right leg is more important, and others that the left, but again, all will say both are important.
For an offense that wants its OTs to bail into vertical sets, having a compromised outer leg could make it tough to take the set and get your anchor and balance before impact.
