@@hankb27 Literally any where else on the body lmao there was a whole segment in this video about how arguably the best runner of the ball of all time used it and not once did you see him pull a Vance McDonald (no hate for him he just didn't do a stiff arm at all) where you just put your hand in the defenders facemask and hope for the best...
...oh, you thought that NFL rules were supposed to be "fair"? Are you unaware of defensive PI placing the ball at the spot of the foul? Bart Scott is my dude - but he should've played on offense if he didn't like how defensive rules are structured in contrast
That 1812 Overture ending was the most Sabol-esque thing I have seen out of NFL films in the past several years. For those of us who grew up on the beautiful art and magical writing of Steve Sabol, thank you.
Okay so there are 2 vids out know discussing the art of the stiffarm and still no one even mentioned lynch or agent 89... Man some person at NFL Films isn't doing is job!
Was this pre-Derrick Henry? He's been breaking games since the 99 yard run with like three separate stiff arms laced into it, turning Earl Thomas into his lead blocker that one time, sending Josh Norman feet into the air with a stiff arm, etc... They showed a clip of him from the 99 yarder at the end but never really said his name even tho low key he's the current undisputed Stiff Arm Champion in the NFL
"The Art of the Stiff Arm" better known as "Offensive players using illegal hands to the face but not getting called for it 95% of the time" lmao. Its RARE you see an ACTUAL stiff arm and not the offensive player just grabbing the facemask of the defender and keeping them at arms length...I feel you Bart Scott
Sweetness had the best stiff-arm in NFL history! Walter Payton attacked defenders trying to knock him out of bounds often catching them unprepared & knocked backwards! Soft spoken & mild mannered off the field, Walter played the game with the perfect mixture of skill, intelligence, & unbridled explosion!
Vance MacDonald will always have the most iconic stiff arm in NFL history. He stiff armed Chris Conte (who was a veteran starting safety) so hard that Conte tore his PCL, was placed on injured reserve, he lost his starting job, and never played another down in the NFL.
Yup Derrick Henry best stiff arms of the year Kinda jacked up they didn’t put Marcus stiff arming berry church from “ sacksonville” lmao think he is still 5ft under the Field.
I played safety(high school) and had runners actually lean in to stiff arm me. Some were basically open-handed punches and... no penalties usually for the runner.
