Yeah I remember Aikman moaning from the booth for the penalty. It was a running back and he was a live ball carrier. This is what is known as a linebacker making a tackle. Aikman lost some respect on that one.

Similar tackles have been flagged, and as a matter of fact we have received that exact penalty earlier this season if memory serves. There is a reason Greenlaw got up looking for laundry.

Perhaps but it would have been a bs foul similar to Arden Key using his body weight. I mean should Greenlaw contort himself mid-tackle and ease the rb to the turf? What exactly is he expected to do here?

Suplexing players almost always gets flagged. We lucked out on that one.

right we got lucky there.

Greenlaw made a couple of mistakes yesterday. I think he was a little over amped because he's missed so many games.
I think he was one of the unsung heroes of the game. I think he was one of the most physical out there and he was probably the one who gave Stafford the most painful lick which made Stafford a little hesitant with his decision making in the second half. Rams running game was non existent because of this dog, too. Dre Greenlaw was flying all over the place last night. Welcome back, Dre.

Spot on. Even though he made mistakes. He was clearly a difference maker. I'm still confused as to why Warner is not that impactful.

He was missing Greenlaw this season.
Greenlaw stood out in a very good way. He played extremely physical and I loved it! He wont commit those penalties again this week.
Got 2, s/h had 3 PF's. Dude was lucky Jimmy bailed him out. Could have cost us the season. I get it though...whole season of pent up rage finally released.

Be smarter going forward.

You have to figure that he will play smarter. Those penalties (especially that blatant facemask) were uncharacteristic.
loved his reaction after Thomas got that game winning int to the Rams Bench lol

Yeah, great to have Greeny back.

Does anyone have the clip of Greenlaw flexing on the whole Rams sideline after the game ending INT? Thanks so much. I must of missed it bc I was screaming like a little girl
I wonder what he was saying to the lambs lol

Kyle said he looks and hits like Mike Tyson and he's not wrong about either.

jonnydel broke this play down and focused on the strongside. Stafford actually looked weakside first and it's Greenlaw that forced Stafford to move off of the Curl-Flat concept.


Playing the down and distance (3rd & 17), Greenlaw does not widen out to the flat to follow the RB. This allowed Greenlaw to play the passing lane on the deep Curl. Stafford goes on to work the strongside where Warner takes away the Dig (jd covers this).


Assist to Greenlaw on this INT. Also, this is what happens when chipping Bosa. Perhaps if there was no chip block, the RB goes to the flat sooner and might cause Greenlaw to widen. Any route that is delayed can greatly affect how zone coverages are (not) manipulated.
