BCEagleATLFalcon Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 From a Miami Herald writer down here: Jake Long was flattened into a 317-pound pancake by defensive end and human spatula John Abraham.

NCFalconfan Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Abe has done that kind of stuff to so many "stud" Tackles in his time...you know Long was thinking "OH S***!!!!"' on his way down! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's actually another good Miami Herald article on THAT topic (my hometown newspaper is doing alright today!): :P http://www.miamiherald.com/sports/football...ry/1232147.htmlThere's a caption-worthy picture in that article: Bell isn't even looking in the right direction anymore while Tony runs in for the TD.

TeamPlayer1 Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Great articles from the Miami Herald! My fave was the description of Peterson!"Peterson moved so fast he was almost an apparition, a ghost who would appear suddenly near the football. The Falcons linebacker jarred the ball loose from Miami tight end Anthony Fasano in the second quarter at the Falcons' 16-yard line, and Atlanta cornerback Brian Williams snatched the ball and ran it to the Miami 31.

ltstorm2 Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 That's because Tony just tossed him on his azz....That was the second or third best moment of the game.I sit near the 10 yard line lower level row 2. That was RIGHT in front of me. I don't care what TV you have at home, nothing compares to seeing it happen RIGHT infront of your face. Love this team.

TeamPlayer1 Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 "Long's problems were at the root of the Dolphins' failure. Dealing with the fleet Abraham, he looked like a guy chasing Usain Bolt!"These writers have great stuff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Rider Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 I am convinced he is the best sack master in the league. Porter or Ware would not put up there numbers in a 4-3 defense like he does. That is just the truth. He is the best pass rushing DE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Statick Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 I like this part:In the third quarter, Gonzalez turned a short flip from Ryan into a 20-yard touchdown pass when the Dolphins were caught in the blitz.``I saw it coming, and Matt saw it coming because he yelled `Cover Zero,' '' Gonzalez said of the touchdown. ``I just broke it outside like I'm supposed to.''Matt is the truth!

There are so many things that seem "automatic," so to speak, when watching a game, and reading something like that, you remember exactly how much prep goes into being able to read a defense and being able to communicate what you've read amongst the offense.

falconidae Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Apparently Jake apologizes to his QB when he allows something bad to happen. Must have been tiresome for Pennington. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
