Bradlee Anae vs Rashawn Slater

[Mcsports]

The coaches purposely sabotaging their own job theory is ridiculous. It is obvious they simply want to protect the legacy of one Lawrence Taylor.

Jokes aside I want to see more of the real #56.

The real #56: Eugene Lockhart . We pretty crowded aT linebacker now, but I’d take him.

Could get a nice comp pick if Armstrong balls out…I suspect though Armstrong is a great practice player and flashes all practice long.

I thought he flashed a lot during the Chargers game, he just never finished the play. No sacks and missed on that interception opportunity.

The coaches hate their jobs and they keep Anae on the bench because they hope to be fired.

What other possible explanation could there be for Anae's limited playing time?

The coaches see him everyday and the coaches spend many hours per day reviewing game footage.

The coaches must sit around and laugh about screwing Jerry over by no playing Anae.

Is that what happened with Jeremy Parnell vs Doug Free? Good to know.

Because there is no interior pressure. No one else is producing sacks either.

Like a light skinned LT

 

[Floatyworm]

Said it in the pre-season....what's new?

Water is wet....

Our special teams coordinator is horrible...

We ruin more players than help them....

 

[JoeKing]

Anea was ruled out of MNF against the Eagles.

 

[Techsass]

What he needs is snaps

Not putting him on the field at all last season was dumb. Just another of the many crimes by the Nolan/Tomsula gang.

I love how people drool over a play here or there.

 

[Verdict]

With Armstrong in a contract year and might not be back next year, I don’t understand why Anae isn’t getting some of Armstrong’s reps. Need to see which is better. With Armstrong out for a while, might get to see.

Also with Lawrence out, it opens up more chances for Anae. Too bad Anae is probably out this week.

There really was no explanation for not playing Anae the second half of last season.

True. I would loved to see if he has anything last season in the dumpster fire.

We needed help on the defensive side of the ball in the worst way.

Trust me, I know. I have no problem with picking Parsons...it looks like he is a future star in the league and already probably the best defensive player we have.

Actually, it's not all that amazing because it's not holding. When a defender uses a "rip" technique, that is one of the exemptions that's part of the rule where holding will not be called. One of about 10.

Rule 12
ARTICLE 3. ILLEGAL BLOCK BY OFFENSIVE PLAYER. It is a foul if an offensive blocker:
.
.
(c) Uses his hands or arms to materially restrict or alter the defender’s path or angle of pursuit. It is a foul regardless of whether
the blocker’s hands are inside or outside the frame of the defender’s body. Material restrictions include but are not limited to:

(1) grabbing or tackling an opponent;
(2) hooking, jerking, twisting, or turning him; or
(3) pulling him to the ground.​

Penalty: For holding by the offense: Loss of 10 yards.

Blocking Notes:
(1) When a defensive player is held by an offensive player during the following situations, Offensive Holding will not be
called:

(a) if the runner is being tackled simultaneously by another defensive player;
(b) if the runner simultaneously goes out of bounds;
(c) if a Fair Catch is made simultaneously;
(d) if the action clearly occurs after a forward pass has been thrown to a receiver beyond the line of scrimmage;
(e) if the action occurs away from the point of attack and not within close-line play;
(f) if a free kick results in a touchback;
(g) if a scrimmage kick simultaneously becomes a touchback;
(h) if the action is part of a double-team block, unless the defender splits the double team, gets to the outside of either
blocker, or is taken to the ground; or
(i) if, during a defensive charge, a defensive player uses a “rip” technique that puts an offensive player in a position
that would normally be holding.
​

Exception: Holding will be called if the defender’s feet are taken away from him by the blocker’s action.

(2) If a blocker falls on or pushes down a defender whose momentum is carrying him to the ground, Offensive Holding will
not be called unless the blocker prevents the defender from rising from the ground.
(3) If the official has not seen the entire action that sends a defender to the ground, Offensive Holding will not be called.​

The rip didn't cause him to be in a holding position, it was a reaction to the rip...separate move and should have been holding.

Where in this sequence did Slater "materially restrict or alter the defender’s path or angle of pursuit?" THAT is what holding is. Slater actually lets Anae go once he turns the corner so as to NOT alter Anae's path or angle as Herbert moved away. Slater clearly knows the rule. This is why I always chuckle at people claiming tons of holds against us go uncalled because not only are they biased in the first place, but they don't even know the rules they are attempting to argue. Lol.

Looks like he's already clear of Slater when Slater hooks him with his arm around the neck.

Go back to Post 40. That's the exception to holding I posted and highlighted. The other poster is trying to claim that Slater held beyond that exception which is blatantly false.

50% chance minimum that’s a hold.

Nowhere close to it but go ahead with yourself.

No it isn't. Reading comprehension is not your strong suit. Honestly I have no idea if you have one. It listed that if the OL is already engaged with hands grabbing chest and then the defender uses the rip move to get out of it that it's understood that it may look like a hold but it's not. In the gif you posted Anae is already clear of Slater. They were not engaged.

Lol. Nowhere in the rule does it say "if the OL is already engaged with hands grabbing chest and then the defender uses the rip move." I posted the rule and it states:

1) When a defensive player is held by an offensive player during the following situations, Offensive Holding will not be
called:

(i) if, during a defensive charge, a defensive player uses a “rip” technique that puts an offensive player in a position
that would normally be holding.​

That means at any point. And you're attempting to chide for reading comprehension while adding things in to suit your weak position? Then again, you're the idiot in the other thread still sticking to your CONSPIRACY! spiel after Collins tried to bribe a drug tester. Dolt.

if, during a defensive charge,

I was trying to explain what they were taking about since you don't understand it. That's talking about being engaged when players are engaged OL put their hands on the defender and the defender uses the rip move and tries to get out of it. . As been pointed out Anae had already gotten clear. He had turned the corner and Slater grabbed him.
