obstreperous Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 I just wanted to say how much I appreciate Brian Williams running down field and making a play on Josh Morgan. It would have been very easy just to let him go into the endzone. The play would have gotten more attention if we had stopped them from scoring the TD, but that shouldn't take away from Williams' effort. Next time maybe we do stop them. So, thank you Brian Williams.I also want to say thanks to Michael Jenkins for running down the sideline with Roddy White. It was clear that Roddy was outrunning the DB's, but Jenkins didn't quit and made sure we got the TD by running hard and inserting himself between White and any would-be tacklers. Let's give credit where it's due. I'm sure there were more plays and players going until the whistle blows- feel free to give examples on this thread- but these stood out in my mind.

ConnFalcon Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Mike Smith coaches them well. It is great to see our guys hustling out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voice of Reason Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 On the Dre Bly/Roddy White strip...Ryan was hustling downfield and had drawn Bly's attention (he was looking Ryan's way) and McClure recovered the fumble. That's two players in one play.Also, on Snelling's fumble, I believe it was Baker downfield who recovered that fumble.It is one thing to have our skilled position players downfield not giving up on plays. It's an entirely different thing to see this type of hustle out of our linemen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammafan58 Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Look no further than Harvey Dahl if you want to see playing till the whistle(or a little after the whistle.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voice of Reason Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Look no further than Harvey Dahl if you want to see playing till the whistle(or a little after the whistle.)I believe the most accurate phrase I have heard describe it is "playing til' the echo of the whistle" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no minor play, apparently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
