Awesome shit. But god dammit, just irritates me no one else can do shit when they got extra bodies on AD.

 

[Malibu]

Great to see it so upclose you really see how AD effects a play.

 

[CanadaRam]

Hate to say it, but from what was shown, Donald dominated when lining up against the other 4 Colts Olinemen, but against Nelson, I would give Nelson the nod.

AD is doing so much that doesn't show on the stat sheets. It's games like this when TJ Watt homers say, "AD didn't do anything! But Watt got a sack!" Fark off...

Even Nelson got help, tho...

That was Nelson's lowest graded performance in his career, according to PFF. It's certainly no knock, the kid is a badass. But it didn't matter if Nelson or someone else was across from Donald, whovever it was was getting help.

1:38, the one we all saw on replay. That's a hold and should of been thrown. Otherwise it's a sack

 

[bwdenverram]

Will say however, Nelson is a stud OL. Wish we had him

I watched that and came to the same conclusion! The rest of our D line is ineffective even though AD is taking on half or more of the O linemen. You can actually see our other D linemen standing around watching AD play.
We need to get him some actual help on the D line!

That’s not entirely true. SJD had a sack on a great move. Floyd’s sack was due to his amazing closing speed.

I mean I get your point. When compared to Donald none get consistent pressure. But the Colts have some top notch lineman. Nelson, Fisher and Kelly.

The play at 3:45 ish? Baldi says he doesn't know how AD didn't get the sack there. Unless Wentz was outside the tackle or I'm missing something that was intentional grounding? I only watched it once because I'm making cake with my kids, so maybe I'm missing something.

He had his best season with Suh on the line. They need another dominant rusher and Robinson is not looking like the guy. Unfortunate. They already seem to be missing Brockers and Fox.

That was IG... he wasn't throwing it to anyone just trying to avoid a sack, plus he was outside the hash... and then Donald turned his ankles into hash.

On the hold, yeah too obvious, if you had to cheat you really didn't win. I agree good lineman though.

 

[TexasRam]

Donalds strength is otherworldly. He just knocks big men off their spot like he's 500 lbs of muscle.

Then you have his quickness. lol it's not fair.

Nelson did an admirable job vs the first Donald move but within 1 second Donald is loose, unless they double teamed him.

 

[payote75]

Is geno Atkins still available if he is id love add him. He could help with the rush and with hollins and flood that be a nice get. I'm sure the dude wants to win
