Play posted:The hit definitely caused it, he was dragged down on top of the ankle causing the achilles to stretch to breaking. Not that there weren't other factors, but it wouldn't have snapped without the way that sack happened. I don’t think it was the hit. He was pushing off on that foot trying to get away mid fall and it snapped. The defensemen wasn’t even on top of him yet. There was too much weight behind him, he had an acute angle with his ankle that had the tendon already stretched, and he tried to push off which added extra tension. He even planted his right foot immediately after, still pumping to try and get away. He’s lucky he didn’t blow both Achilles. Trying to escape was his downfall, he shoulda just rolled and fell with it.

sirtommygunn posted:The oline is bad but Rodgers was holding the ball way longer than he should have. They would need one of the best olines in the league to keep him from getting hit on every down the way he was playing. Yeah, between last season and last night, Rodgers struck me as a guy who was trying to play like he was still 25. He was really good at avoiding INTs and used his unreal pocket mobility to buy him time to do just that, but his physical abilities have clearly declined and it just didn't seem like he'd adjusted to that reality yet. Not trying to victim-blame him for his injury or anything, but that mindset probably didn't help matters.

Here is the exact moment his back foot hits the ground from step 3. The ball is supposed to be out of his hand immediately after this and there is still 25 feet between him and the defender. Yeah their line is bad a 40 year old QB who knows who is on his line should not expect them to immediately get better via magic. He held onto the ball too long and he's been doing this for years, Brady played until 45 by getting rid of the ball quickly. e: just watched the Eli and Peyton feed and they are questioning why he still had the ball: Eli: "another 3 step Peyt, trying to get the ball out quick the left tackle is cutting I think the ball should be out on a quick gain" It was an extremely low effort cut by the LT but Rodgers had time for both the play that was called and time to dump it when he saw the pressure. https://twitter.com/espn/status/1701393836503666988

But it's also funny to laugh at a punter thinking he's going to maybe save the day for a second and then doing whatever that was.

I agree with that Those open field tackles already put the tackler at a huge disadvantage, throw in that the tackler is a punter and there's some potential for hilarity

The game is over unless Gipson fumbles right there (or goes down and the Jets do something hilarious with 1st & Goal in OT). At least he tried to get his arms somewhere near the ball, which I don't imagine punters spend a lot of time drilling.

If this was supposed to be a 3 step throw play, uh who's he supposed to throw it to? I'm may not be a big city sophisticated lawyer, but this seems like garbage play design for a quick hitter when you only have 1 receiver over the middle of the field. Maybe the outside receivers are doing short curls???

I'm may not be a big city sophisticated lawyer, but this seems like garbage play design for a quick hitter when you only have 1 receiver over the middle of the field. Maybe the outside receivers are doing short curls??? He has 3 receivers running slants/in/crossing routes and an RB checkdown to his left. His first two reads are to the right and both are covered, the left receiver has a couple steps but the safety is lurking nearby. Still with his arm that's his best option. Barring that you toss it to the check down where only he can catch it/out of bounds. You can see his first two reads are covered. He's had time to bounce around back there, the ball needs to come out NOW and his arm should already be back. At this point even if he gets a throw off he still likely gets hit. The LT tried to chop because he expected the ball to be out based on the play call. Assuming the LT didn't miss his blocking assignment Rodgers knows this, and even sees/senses the pressure and had ample time to dump it out of bounds after the first two reads if he wanted to, and would have lived to fight another day. Man who would have thought I'd be frame by framing another 9/11 event.

AAAAA! Real Muenster posted:Nathaniel Hackett. Both outside routes are timed to break in when Rodgers hits the top of his drop, those are the two options as the TE pulls the linebacker in the middle up the field. You can see the WR on the left come open pretty much right as Rodgers finishes his drop in the video.

You can see the WR on the left come open pretty much right as Rodgers finishes his drop in the video. I half think he was expecting that tight end to get past the LB and settle or go sideways, then he just runs into double coverage and by then it's too late. But that doesn't really work either because the open receiver there would be running pretty close to into him. Which is something I noticed all last year with Hackett offenses, receivers are constantly right damned next to each other, and not in a mesh way where one's doing a pick. Like, they end up that way in plays.

Garrett Wilson was open because he’s always open. He’s right there on the left. Throw it to him.

Yea, it’s an ugly play, as many of Hackett’s are, but Wilson is open as hell on the left if Rodgers throws on time. The right side is obviously hosed as soon as the LB turns to follow the TE because it’s just too congested.

Zach Wilson is gonna have a rocky next couple of weeks. He'll put together a solid game 4 and then suddenly have two phenomenal games week 5 and 6. Week 7 he takes a step back and leaves you wondering if it was all just random chance. Week 8 he gsts arrested after he takes his dick out in an Uber and doesn't play again this season. Thr Jets sign Tom Brady.

Asproigerosis posted:Maybe I should have actually watched the play instead of looking at one still frame Not trying to pin this all on Rodgers. I feel bad for the guy because while I think he's a weird egomaniac with team-killing contract demands I really did want to see him play out this year. His line is bad, that was a poo poo play call, and that field looked like green spray painted shag carpet. But I've been watching him take his dropbacks with increasing risk for 10+ years and there was a very high chance of him getting hurt because of it. His margin of error with the Jets was incredibly slim. This wasn't a hard hit, just a freak injury due to a bad dice roll. You avoid this by not rolling the dice. The NFLPA is once again pushing for grass, but I can't see that working because the owners are so cheap and petty their "grass" fields will turn into dog tracks.

Relying on 39 year old Duane Brown to give consistent LT performance for Rodgers probably wasn't a good idea given he was running out of gas during his Seahawks tenure.

Barring that you toss it to the check down where only he can catch it/out of bounds. Mostly agree but the receiver visible on the left side is 100% open. In-breaking route, safety is barely inside of him but also over ten yards deeper. No way he gets to that ball if it is thrown in the next second or two. Beautiful window too, wide open. His eyes aren't really there, but they probably should be based on the defenders' leverage on the two routes on the right side. It looks like he is hoping to hit a hole shot to the receiver in the middle (looks like a seam route or something similar) but it is well covered with the LB right next to the receiver and the two safeties already converging. And throwing a seam route on a play where a cut block is called makes no sense at all. He needs to throw the ball to the left. Yes easy to say by calmly perusing a still shot. But Rodgers has always been bizarre about hesitating to throw in breaking routes even though they are by far the easiest way to get chunk plays in the NFL.

I do wonder if Tom Brady going as long as he did will end up causing a few quarterbacks to hold off retirement a little longer and take some bad injuries from it.
