So far, I think the biggest one is Von Miller, but he got it early on so the media (And probably most fans) have largely forgotten it at this point. Same with Sean Payton among coaches. When big name players start getting it, the league might do something (They won’t until either everyone has it or players die).

Not isolated enough. I think we all know where the NFL needs to go to be sure the players will die of CTE and not COVID: https://youtu.be/g1Sq1Nr58hM NFL gonna build space colonies.  And if they’re anything like the stadiums, they’ll fall apart and crash into the planet and complete our turn into a post-apocalyptic society!

This is usually how I react when putting in for par as well. Then again, I’m usually 7 beers deep and have previously hit a handful of quadruple bogeys and shanked 14 balls into the woods.

a play with a designed snap to a guy split wide AND a lateral you'd pretty much never see that today.

I would love to see some of these rugby-inspired elements return to football, not that I think they ever will, but man it looks real elegant I have been watching Aussie Rules to bide time and I've really enjoyed it, I wouldn't mind some kind of forward-kicking progress thing being added to the NFL, even if it might never get used barnold fucked around with this message at 03:45 on Jul 12, 2020 |

When did laterals stop being a thing except in final play desperation mode, and why did it happen?

That play wouldn't work at all in the modern NFL because modern players are athletic, and a modern corner is gonna see the WR lining up 7 yards back from the LOS and get right up on the line. More teams should have designed laterals though. They're easy to practice, tons of HS / college teams use enough pitch concepts that players have experience with it, and they loving rule. It's absolutely the thing you should do when playing against a way better team. ketchup vs catsup posted:When did laterals stop being a thing except in final play desperation mode, and why did it happen? Because coaches are conservative wusses and turnovers are death.

Yeah I should be clear, when I say "rugby-inspired elements" I mostly mean the free-flowing lateral game, not necessarily the goofy offensive set that relies on literally nobody seeing the guy lined up out wide

Last season Kelce had one in the middle of a play to Shady McCoy against he Lions that went for a first down. I'd imagine when it works the coach is like 'good job, never do that again' once someone gets to the sideline. When it doesn't work, well, you know what the reaction would be. Someone on the Eagles had one a few years ago that everyone dunked on because it was just ugly, DJax maybe?

Kalli posted:That play wouldn't work at all in the modern NFL because modern players are athletic, and a modern corner is gonna see the WR lining up 7 yards back from the LOS and get right up on the line. When I was living in the Republic of Georgia I did 7 on 7 with a bunch of Georgian jr high and high school players for a few months. They largely got it except they wanted to lateral every play. It was a pleasant surprise if either side could go three plays without a turnover. Eventually I just embraced it, they were way too deep in Rugby to ever stop them. There was a dude named Dato who was like 6"2, had great instincts for picking the ball, and soft hands. Whenever his team was playing D smart money was they have the ball again on the first or second play. I would just tell him "Good job, Ed." and switched him up periodically so more than half the kids could play offense. Had amazing instincts, and was really athletic, but a little too much of a strider to have the change of direction for soccer, and lived in a part of the country that would never allow an athlete to be discovered. I bet if he grew up in a football town he'd have made it at least to the college level. He never understood why I called him Ed. Funny, the older guys didn't get throwing the ball but the younger kids could whip it. There was this one 7th grade girl named Lana who hucked the ball 40 yards in the air easy like within 10 minutes of me tossing it to her. It's funny, I didn't have to show her anything, she just naturally had perfect form and threw a spiral. These were farm kids from wine country, none of them were ripped but they were all wiry, so they looked like sticks but were deceptively strong.
