Dave, the guy at the beginning of the video, coming out the tunnel, is an Eagles Hall of Fame player, BRIAN DAWKINS! He's considered one of our greatest players ever! He's a comic book fan, his favorite character is Wolverine. What you saw is his 'trademark' entrance to the field, where he revs himself and the whole stadium by becoming Wolverine! He was a fearless, unrelenting defense player, and is much loved to this day!

One of the hits you paused the video to talk about was Ronnie Lott. He broke his left pinky finger in the last game of the regular season against the Dallas Cowboys in December of 1985. No way Ronnie Lott, the hard-hitting defensive back and staple in San Francisco's backfield during their four Super Bowl championships in the 1980s, was going to let the hand injury keep him off the field in the playoff game against the New York Giants. So, Lott faced a decision from doctors: put a pin in his finger and a cast over it and wait eight weeks for it to heal, or amputate part of the finger off from the first joint up and be able to play right away. Sure enough, Lott picked option B, amputation, and parted ways with his pinky. Doctors numbed it, sliced it off and put it in a cast. One week later, Lott was back in action in the 49ers' 17-3 loss to the Giants, which eliminated them from the postseason. He lost the finger AND the game! That's hardcore.

18:27 I don't know if it has been explained already, but in football the coaches teach you the lower man wins. Say a ball carrier and defender are heading for each other. Usually the one who has gotten lower first wins the exchange. They will always tell you to have a low center of gravity. Speed and strength are important, but it won't help if you go high and the opponent goes low and puts his shoulder in your chest or stomach. Hopefully this somewhat helps you guys understand.

I've watched almost all your videos and it's hard to believe that was the first Joseph Vincent one. His videos are great. Hope you guys do a lot more from him! Love ya guys.

The idea behind the hits Dave was talking about around the 9:20 mark,( just running through the ball carrier rather than a form tackle) Is to physically by force separate the ball from the ball carrier

That's a great question at the end there dave. There is an old saying in football "the low man wins" when it comes to hitting or running over defenders on the offensive side of the ball

If you haven't already you should check out the Legion of Boom. Seattle's defense from like 2011 to 2015 that dominated the league.

Love all the football reactions!! ❤️

That missile was named Sean Taylor!!! Rest in peace gone to soon!

Sometimes defensive players do aim to deliver hits to take players out of the game, it’s frowned upon, but the Saints had a controversy that they called bountygate where the defensive coordinator was paying players extra money to take people out. Might make a good reaction if there are any videos on KZfaq about it.

From 2009 to 2012, the New Orleans Saints gave bonuses (bounties) to players, for injuring certain players.

The Ray Lewis tackle was an example of "de-cleating" someone.

Joseph Vincent is the GOAT of KZfaq NFL. Great videos of individual players.

Joe Vincent is known for his movie making approach to his videos. They are all pretty amazing.

OB Mike was right about pass interference. As soon as the receiver makes contact with the ball he's fair game as long as you don't hit them in the head. (years ago you could hit to the head but not anymore).

Pass interference is only applicable before the receiver TOUCHES the ball. Once he touches it you can do anything to him (that isn't against an applicable hitting or tackling rule i.e. hitting to the head) to get him to not complete the catch.

I like you guys even more that you’re Eagles fans! 🦅

Dave, your question about how to win the hits challenge can be answered with one thing...The Oklahoma Drill

The one on the left, if I look at him first, it always makes me check if my resolution is turned down on my screen but them I look at the other two and realize it's just him and that always happens and trips me out lol

Joe Vincent by far has the best sports videos

Once the ball touches your hands, you are eligible to be hit. At the pro level the timing is uncanny!

Now that you guys have a understanding of the game I think you should start learning about individual players (past and present players)

The editing on this video is fucking supreme. It's so damn entertaining haha

There were a couple of clips from Sean Taylor there. I'm surprised you didn't recognize the name after watching that video about his career.

The play at @ the 10:20 mark, its a penalty. I believe its for targeting a defenseless receiver. I think it also has to do with the defender making no effort to play the ball.

It's all about timing he timed it just right to be there exactly when the ball arrives great play

Dashon Goldson was a throwback to the hard hitting free safeties of the 80's and 90's.

The guy that was running strange was a punter. And that's pretty much all you need to know to explain it...lol. he doesn't run, block, tackle, or score. His job is to just kick a ball and then go sit back down. So on there rare play he's forced to do something else, he ends up looking like an Office Bloke out there 😆😆

10:59 A defender is allowed to disrupt a player from catching the ball by getting in the way. As long as they are making a play on the ball, it's considered legal. The clip you guys saw is old and that rule has since been changed or altered. Previously you could block a receiver by running into him as he's trying to catch the ball but you can't do that anymore. That's considered attacking a defenseless receiver because he cannot protect himself and catch the ball at the same time. However, you can push him out of the way, bat the ball down or put your body in the way, which are all considered making a play on the ball and there are a lot of questionable things players can do with these new loose guidelines, so you can imagine what is considered making a play on the ball these days, but that clip you guys saw is a penalty now.

When tackling coaches tell you low man wins so whoever can get their hips and shoulders lower wins the tackle

The Seahawks player was the kicker which is why he looked so uncomfortable running... and carrying the ball since he fumbled without a person within 5 yards of him. Haha

Y'all need to see "NFL trucking" to see what happens when the offensive player wins

You're exactly right. Ryan was the punter. That awkward run was a fake punt.

In the NFL the rule is that as soon as the ball hits the hands the defender can hit them. It’s why players hated running a route that took them across the middle of the field for a pass. If they have to jump to catch and defenders are in a zone defense they will just get walloped. However, to combat things like the play at around 10:28 the NFL has started calling “unnecessary roughness”penalties if defenders violently hit receivers that are in a defenseless position making a catch.

Those to be admired in this video are those who took a hit and still held on to the ball. Many were probably concussed. It's easy to hit someone that's focusing on catching a ball.

@ 10:47... the old rule was basically... the moment the ball makes even the slightest contact with the receiver, the defender can hit him.

Lol. The 200 lb guy is like 6% body fat. Your 230 is like 150 if you had that level of fitness. You couldn't fathom what a 220 lb dude with no fat is. In America we call that a monster.

Not Rusty Nail 😂😂

The guy in the bright green looked like he was running funny is because he’s the punter running a fake punt. All he’s thinking is “holy shit, I made it….now what?!?!?!”

The blokes make me laugh every time

You guys would love LEGION OF BOOM one of the best defensive units to play in the NFL

Some of these hits made me see stars!!! 🤣

#9 for the seahawks was the punter John Ryan. #31 Kam Chancellor's nickname was Bam Bam Kam

Seeing guys getting erased from the census is why we love football over here!

Before 1970 most defensive players were taught to use their arms and wrap up the runner as a tackle. Beginning after 1970 more and more players started using the missle-launch method of tackling which can be effective but created a lot more injuries and a lot of missed tackles because if you don't knock the runner down, you are in no position to follow the play. I think it was a huge mistake that detracted from good defensive play for decades.

The guy at 4:00 that was running funny is a punter.. that's why lol At 11:00... the goal for the defender in that situation is to hit the offensive player right as the ball gets there, to knock the ball free and cause an incompletion. But the ball has to be touched by the WR first or at the same time as the hit. If the hit comes before the ball gets to the WR, it's a pass interference. So it's a timing thing.

3:31 is Jon Ryan. The Seahawks punter. 😂

The edit on this is sick; I love as LMFAO

You guys should react to more Joseph Vincent sports videos. He has the most cinematic highlights easily

As a Giants fan, I hate the Birds. But I played safety in High School so I've always loved Brian Dawkins. He's the leader every defense needs.

For your question around 10mins 40secs on if that was a legal hit or not. Cornerbacks cover the wide receivers and often hand fight with the receiver but they cannot prevent the receiver from running their route. If the ball is thrown to the receiver and is "catchable" then they are not allowed to hold on to them or prevent them from getting their hands to the ball. It's open season to hit the receiver once they've made contact with the ball which is why corners and safeties time their hits for just after the ball gets there to disrupt their catch. That looked like a legal hit since the receiver touched it just before he got hit, that looked like an older clip but now they'd probably get a penalty for hitting a "defenseless" player in the head(targeting).

Steve Atwater vs Christian Okoye was one of the greatest hits of all time

2:35 Missing the video to make a dumb joke lol just watch my guy Edit: I love you guys roasting NFL athletes, it's not like you airballed every other shot on the "Try" channel...... also the 200lbs comment was about his position

Yall finally got past the 198000 hump.in the last 5 days you all have been killing it with the subs.Next stop 500 and then a mill.Congrats to you,you all deserve it.Do me a favor and try to react to aries spears comedy blueprint.u won't be disappointed

If you enjoy football, look up Pat McAfee Top Plays. Pat used to be the Colts Punter/Kickoff specialist. He has some very memorable moments from his time in the NFL. He has a very popular podcast now and also does work for ESPN. I think you all would enjoy it

The way y’all keep reacting to football, I’m starting to question your dedication to soccer.

10:45 wasn't a penalty when it happened because there was no defenseless receiver rule back then. It isn't Pass Interference because he touched the ball before it happened.

A successful tackle is built on direction, stance and timing.

This guy makes the best videos more please

Once the receiver touches the ball he can be hit. If it’s early, it’s PI but some of them are so close they are fair. Also, if a lineman up front tips the ball, the receiver can be tackled before touching the ball.

That eagles player Dave is Brian Dawkins. My all time favorite eagle and all time favorite saftey in my opinion. He embodied philly and he was a absolute machine on the field

The guys whose running form you were laughing at is Jon Ryan, former Seahawks punter. All time legend. 😂😂

You guys need to check out more of joe Vincent's work he makes absolutely stunning videos and I know you guys will thoroughly enjoy his work .

Please review NORMANI's "Wild Side." I saw your reaction of her "Motivation," and our was one of the funniest organic reactions I've seen on your channel! But I definitely dig your NFL spots too!

Kam Cancellor was a BAAAD man!

It should be pass interference if the defender makes contact to a receiver past 5 yards (or at least it used to be 5 yards not sure I think it still is) if the receiver hasn't touched the ball. However, contact is allowed when both players are going for the ball. But you can't just lay someone out before they touch the ball and the ball is in the air. Contact to a receiver when the defender is not making a play for the ball is pass interference. Among many other things like pushing off of them, or hooking their arm, or grabbing their jersey, horsecollar, etc. any contact before the receiver touches the ball that is not incidental and is not happening when the defender is also going for the ball.

There were 2 Crumpler Bros. Algae and Carlester! Great names!

When I went to Junior College (its like a 2 year schoool before University)in the late 90s, I played with a guy from England. He was a really good guy. Use to say "Ain't nothin but a bowl of cherries mate". Never knew what that meant lol

The runner in green you made fun of his gate, is a punter, probably a converted soccer (football) player to you.😉

Keeping your feet underneath you is key in tackling; consequently, they do run thru the ball carrier

I’m not sure, but I think the guy that was running funny was the kicker, because he only had one shoe on. Maybe that’s why he looked so awkward. He’s not used to doing running plays. Btw, I swear you guys said you were going to do more MLB. When’s that gonna happen? In the past I have recommended “MLB, Different Pitch Types”’ or “Not so serious Baseball”.

Dave now has to learn the eagles fight song, I was at the eagles jaguars game great game outside being soaked from the rain

These guys should definitely watch Alabama football roll tide

To answer your question about if it is a foul to hit the receiver the basics of the rule is you can not hit the receiver until the ball gets to them. They dont have to have completed the catch but they generally need to be touching the ball to be hit like that

Joeseph Vincent and Bored Media has some of the best boxing content on YT.

Anything that twitches, give it stitches

The punter doesn't look like an athlete 😂😂😂

There's the notion of "defenseless receiver" as well

Also part of lowering your shoulder as they say. Is about lowering your center of gravity. Which makes you win collisions

L.T snapped Joe Theismans leg like a chicken bone in one game.

the "big hit" videos will never get old but im tired of this being the only thing people new to football enjoy. Yes these guys are insane athletes but the strategy part of the game is most interesting to me. These guys come off as primitive but you actually have to be very smart to play this sport as there is a lot of scheming and strategy that i would like to see you guys dive into more. love the content as always

Go Birds, indeed!!

You definitely aren't Rust T nails, because I grew up with his kids. Amazing guy, legen in San Diego

Don't go for the wrap up hit. They go for the knock out hits, run thru the ball carrier, blow him up.

Are u guys going to react to Urinating Trees vids ?

@10:37 That more of unnecessary roughness or hitting a defenseless receiver because he was stretching for the ball while getting hit but could also be called pass interference.

If you don’t look at the ball carrier and stare at the field behind of him your ankles will get broke

RIP Sean Taylor 🕊

A lot of the old school hits are not legal anymore.

You guys should watch the Maryland Football Locker Room by Royal Key

That one was called as a penalty on the field

Highly recommend reacting to other videos from this channel, great sports edits and storytelling. The George Foreman video is great as well as the Lebron James/Zion Williamson videos too

With pass interference, the rule is generally that the defense can't hit or impede the receiver until the ball arrives.

i Just want one football highlight reaction so the blokes can get a general feel for the game

You guys need to react to James Harrison...Football Life, work out, or highlights.

Tighten yourself up and center of gravity in your body.

You guys should check out the new video from the cannel KTO called "What's the most humiliating loss in NFL history?" It's right up your street.

Truth be told some of these hits are not allowed anymore and would be a penalty. Especially any of the helmet to helmet hits or tackles where the defender lowers his head. The NFL and the NFLPA is trying to make it a bit safer because of the studies on the effects of concussions and neck injuries. I'm surprised that the video did not include Lawrence Taylor breaking Joe Theisman's leg.

Yeah, some of those guys will reach up to 25 stone. It’s freaking insane.

can you guys react to the top 100 plays of the 2021-2022 nba season on the nba channel?
