southwest1 Walk On

This is why I laugh at those dumb ESPN Sports Science highlights. What does a Olympic long jump & fosbury flop have to do with what Ballard did exactly? You seldom see other NFL analysts incorporate trivial jargon from other sports outside of professional football. If Cory Redding does a swim move to beat a defender & sack the opposing QB, are producers at Sports Science going to make a dumb analogy to Michael Phelps, the Olympic gold metal swimmer too?  :facepalm:

 

I appreciate the highlight #12. My criticism has no bearing on you just the Sports Science script writers & producers actually.

They should have set up the circumstances.  Division Rival, on the road, in OT.  Was a walk off touchdown that was the turning point of our season.  Up to that point we sucked on the road.  That's what makes the play besides the obvious athleticism...

You mean "Fosbury flop" wasn't running through Vick's head during that play? haha

      Colts Select Laiatu Latu Edge UCLA

      By stitches · Posted

      Latu weighed 257 at the combine, but later at his pro day he was 267 lbs. He probably dropped to 257 to run faster the 40.

      Do we know where Minn is playing Turner?   Is it DE or is it OLB?   I thought I had heard right after the draft the Vikings were using him at OLB.  Yes?   No?      I know Turner, I know how good he’s been his whole football life.  If the Colts had drafted him I would’ve been fine.     Im not reacting much on the weight….  257 vs 250.   Seems Laiatu lost weight for the combine while Turner gained a little.  That happens all the time.   I think the Colts have Latu listed at his normal 265.   Just an observation.

      The comp I was referring to was a graphic (by Colts Cast I think) that compared his final two years to Myles Garrett.    Latu weighed 257, Turner was above 250 at his pro day. They have different frames, but they are not that far apart in weight.   Turner just has the upside. In the past, he's the exact type of ER prospect that Ballard would drool over. But he wasn't a project. He was the #1 ER in his HS class, started 3 years at Bama and produced in the SEC (DPOY). Has dominated at every level.   It was certainly a change of approach and I would agree that Partridge had serious input.

      BREAKING: NFL loses HUGE in Sunday Ticket Lawsuit

      By Superman · Posted

      The judge will be hearing a motion to set aside the jury verdict, which apparently is allowed in a case like this. That means he could invalidate the verdict if he sees fit. It's worth noting that the judge was highly critical of the plaintiff's case and the way they chose to argue it. I don't know if that means anything, but it's interesting.   It's also interesting that the NFL's appeal would go to the US Ninth Circuit court, which is the same court that reinstated this case after it had been previously dismissed.
