Andrus Peat vs. Seahawks DB Kelcie McCray (1 Viewer)

Wasnt there another nice pancake he got on one of the Michael Thomas catches?
 
seriously? why gloat or praise that, do it to one of the guys with numbers in the 90s, then gloat.

so he should have ole'd him just because of the weight difference? Reminds me of that play in the NFCCG when Evans made that Vike defensive back take a seat instead of being trucked. McCray should have taken a note of that game. An offensive lineman should destroy anything in his path and he did. Then fell on him for good measure.
 
Peat is playing well and I hope we keep him at LG and as Armsteads backup for good. Next offseason we can upgrade the right side of the line through FA and the draft.

You must be new to watching football so I'll help you. In football, there are what's known as the three levels of a defense: the d-line, the linebackers and the secondary. When the RB carries the ball and gets past the linebackers, he's said to have "gotten into the third level".

The same goes for offensive linemen regarding blocking as when an offensive lineman can move up to the second or third levels of a defense, it normally means the rest of the line stymied the first and/or second levels. On this play, Peat got into the second to third level and made a key block upfield. I say "second to third level" because since McCray is a SS, he is part of the secondary (3rd level) but he also came downfield to meet Peat and was steamrolled.

Got it? Good.

Haha nice
 
Another aspect of football, that is being hushed up nicely in the more recent years, is that it is a battle of physical will.

You can, and should, physically punish your opponent LEGALLY at every possible opportunity.

Later in the game, when you need a critical first down and the SS sees #75 staring him down, he'll remember that play, and you win that play and the game.
 
:D

Nobody should question his mean streak

If I didn't know any better, I'd say that was a forearm to the head after the pancake. That's a dangerous man playing for us
 
A couple of things that I took away from that play:

1) It isn't just the pancake itself that was impressive. Most of the time players get pancakes by drive blocking their opponent into the ground or from a crack back block that the other guy didn't see coming. Peat earned that pancake from exploding into a hit that was head on. That is amazingly difficult to do and he absolutely crushed him. Those are the type of hits that you go back to the huddle with a big dumb grin and say to your other lineman "wait until we watch the game film because I just ****ed that dude up."

2) I agree that it is obvious that HT missed the better hole, but also agree that based on where we were on the field, you take those positive yards because it was a the higher success rate option. But lord I wish we would have followed Peat just to see what could have been.

3) Part of the reason why I think HT took the quick-hitter hole was because of where K.J. Wright was lined up pre snap. Ironically, both HT and Wright lost each other on the play and Wright completely misread the play and was way out of position, but was fortunate to have the play flow into to him anyway.

4) I think Unger actually played his assignment well. He and Jahri moved 90 to the left and then Unger was passing 90 to Jarhi while going to the second level. 90 was able to regain his anchor and was able to push Jahri off before Jahri could really latch on. To no small degree I also think Jahri over stretched on the play causing him to be is a bad position to seal that block. Really though hats off to 90 because he did extremely well quickly recovering from a compromised position to a dominate one.
