Note that if you caught it early, it was still being processed by Youtube. 720p and eventually 1080p (I think) will be available once it finishes processing.

Just say it's copyright of the NFL and it will stay up.

[MadCardDisease]

I watched it on Tivo 20 times when I got home. It never gets old.

 

[AZ Native]

That spin move and running backwards...well it was fun to watch.

That spin move and running backwards...well it was fun to watch.

Anyone else have Tecmo Bowl flashbacks? As soon as he caught it and no one was within 5-10 yards of him, I knew he was gonna do something special. Get him in space and let the man work.

This, of course, brings back the memory of Adub stopping him from running back the punt in the Seattle game... oh well

 

[kolb2fitz]

anyone else notice that when PP was running full throttle, schofield for the most part was keeping up with him?

I thought of that this morning! Even when that play happened I was thinking, NNOOOOOO!

You mean when PP was already high-steppin'?

 

[Jersey Girl]

It was a thing of beauty. The crowd went absolutely nuts. Just freaking awesome.

 

[kolb2fitz]

you know you're right, I looked back and noticed it was more or less during the end.

My apologies

That was the classic no no nice shot play but in football not basketball. He did everything you're not supposed to do field the ball inside the 10 yard line, back up near the goalline on a return etc, but he's so strong and so fast it didn't matter they just can't get him down.

I'm confused about the stats though NFL.com says 19 total returns 10 FC 21.8 per return. Are they saying the FC's count as returns of 0, or are they saying he's actually run back 19 of them? I don't think he has that's why I ask one of my early complaints about him was I felt he was FC too many of them.

I don't think he's actually run back 19 of them I think it's more like 10, and scored on 3 of them which is pretty insane.

 

[football karma]

early in the punt return -- he catches and moves to his right running laterally -- and then cuts north / south and just explodes.

In person, that move was shocking to see how fast is was relative to everyone else on the field. The video gives only a sense of that. It was like he was shot out of a canon.
