You learn them in practice, and practice them over and over until it becomes second nature. THEN you are ready to take the field. Like in anything else you have to learn the fundamentals before taking the next step. You can't learn how to run until you learn how to walk.
I think this will be good for Croyle, and better for the Chiefs in the long run. If you put Croyle in a situation like that, with that OL, then he is never going to learn to learn proper mechanics because he will be running for his life all the time.

Damon Huard has been "practicing" his entire career as a backup.
Yet, he STILL throws off his back foot ALL THE TIME.
Ask any current or former QB:
There is NO SUBSTITUTE for GAME EXPERIENCE.
