The Walrus Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 The thing I haven't checked is what time was left on the clock when the catch was made. Even if he was tackled out of bounds it's still likely the Vikes win it with a field goal, but provided there was time left. In a way it was the perfect throw. If the Saints don't compete for the catch then the Vikes catch it and go out of bounds setting up the FG. Only way the Saints stop it is to compete for the catch and risk a PI call. They tried to not compete but were limited to not being able to drive towards the side line, which is why Williams did what he did. If Williams just wraps him up they likely crash out over and Saints likely lose anyway. But depends on that clock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Williams just catches Diggs and falls down the saints win I don't have access to a replay right now (at work, can post, can't view YouTube etc) but my impression at the time was Williams couldn't have done anything to Diggs except take out his legs so he falls straight down and not towards the side line. If Williams hits him with any force in the upper body coming from the direction he was at that speed then they go out over the side line and Vikes likely win via FG. But I haven't seen a replay since so going off my memory. But for me, I can understand why Williams played it that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a lot to ask the kid to think to do in the moment , but he literally could have stood under him and caught him. 9 out of 10 times the lunge catches a body part and Diggs is down in bounds Just a miracle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snell41 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Just wait till the Jags Pats game next week. All the goodwill will go out the window when they fix thatIt’ll be a shame seeing all those beautiful Fournette runs called back for phantom holding calls.Sent from my iPhone using JetNation.com mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joewilly12 Posted January 15, 2018 Author Share Posted January 15, 2018 @Mogglez NY Jets projected draft picks Round 7: Jaylen Samuels, FB, N.C. State You can afford some gambles this late in the draft. The Jets used converted defensive end Lawrence Thomas at fullback last year. It was a cool story, but Thomas didn't bring much to the offense. Samuels is a bit of a hybrid tight end/H-back. John Morton can find some interesting ways to use him.

It was like he was trying to take his legs out during the act of catching the ball. But fair play to Keenum and Diggs, the pass was close enough to the side line to force the error.

Samuels is an H-Back, not a full blown FB like Bohanon, which is stated in that write up. I said that a H-Back is what most teams, including us, use. Long story short: Bohanon (FB) - Bad fit, Samuels (H-Back) - Right fit. 2. This is a mock draft that I doubt actually happens. However, one scenario I can causing us to draft someone like this is DeFilippo coming here to replace Morton. I don't know much about his offense right now, but he might want one. We'll see.
