He caught it. Let's not make this more complicated than it is. The rule Steratore is describing only exists so that the NFL has a built-in excuse to call the game however they want. They love to live in the grey.
Hyde almost took one to the house last week if not for being tripped by his own teammate. And he's much more secure with the ball. I don't see a downside.
However, I do see major downside potential with McKenzie or Stevenson.
It seems pretty obvious to me.
Yeah, but there weren't two guys to choose from. He only had that one DE in front of him. He shouldn't be disengaging unless another threat presents itself. The play happens in a second, but he failed during the 10 seconds leading up to the play.
OLmen are so incredibly dumb sometimes. If you're not gonna block that guy, then who the hell are you blocking? I hate when they pass a guy off and then block no one. It's maddening. What was your plan, exactly?
